The Infantry defied the doubters with their win on AEW Collision.

On the March 16 episode of AEW Collision, The Infantry (Carlie Bravo and Capt. Shawn Dean) defeated Buddy Matthews and Brody King in a Wild Card match to earn a spot in the AEW World Tag Team Championship Tournament. Mark Briscoe interfered and helped The Infantry score the win.

In a digital exclusive, The Infantry commented on their win.

Shawn Dean: Damn, Bravo. We just slipped into the next round, baby.

Carlie Bravo: Really, bro?

SD: I’m just saying, look, bro. At war, it’s not about how you win, it’s if you win.

CB: That’s a fact.

SD: We’ve been through a lot of battles, man, and every battle ain’t gonna go according to plan. But tonight, everything went to plan.

CB: See, here’s my issue. They try to count us out. They act like we weren’t supposed to be here. We wasn’t supposed to make it out of the city. We wasn’t supposed to make it out of war. We wasn’t supposed to be in AEW. We wasn’t supposed to be in this tag tournament. But hey, plot twist, we in it, and we won it. Now what everybody gotta say? What, you thought this was a game? Sometimes, at war, you don’t realize, it ain’t about attacking. Sometimes, it’s about survival, and that’s exactly what we had to do tonight. Survive, son. Stop playing with us. You know what’s next, right? Big time.

SD: Big Time.

While they celebrated with Trish Adora, Bravo told FTR that they were coming for them, and Dean pulled him away before he could finish the sentence.
