AEW Collision returned to Allen, Texas, on September 5, 2026, with championship defences, a debut and more developments on the road to All Out.

The fallout from All In: London continued throughout the broadcast on TNT and HBO Max. Andrade El Idolo defended the AEW National Championship against Gabe Kidd, Persephone faced VertVixen with the TBS Championship at stake, and the Motor City Machine Guns competed in their official AEW in-ring debut.

The Young Bucks were also in action against the Don Callis Family, while Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight faced Juice Robinson and Ace Austin in the main event.

The Young Bucks vs. The Don Callis Family’s Brian Cage and Jake Doyle

Brian Cage and Jake Doyle wasted no time taking the fight to Matt and Nick Jackson, attacking during the Bucks’ entrance pose and dragging them from the turnbuckles. The pair immediately isolated Matt and worked him over in their corner.

Nick eventually entered and brought some urgency to the Bucks’ attack, taking on both opponents before joining Matt for a string of double-team moves. Cage and Doyle answered with their own teamwork, but the Jacksons forced them outside and followed with a dropkick and a dive.

The Don Callis Family regained control when Cage intercepted Matt’s attempted apron kick with a suplex. Cage then showed off his strength by curling Nick before throwing him down and landing a knee strike.

Nick found an opening after the commercial break. Cage caught his crossbody attempt, but Nick escaped the fireman’s carry and hit a Canadian Destroyer, finally creating the opportunity to tag Matt.

Matt came in swinging at both opponents, while Nick used Doyle as a platform to deliver DDTs to both men. The Bucks followed with tandem bulldogs and an elbow drop and senton combination, only for Cage to kick out.

A flurry of superkicks kept the pressure on, although Doyle briefly turned things around by catching a hurricanrana attempt and converting it into a powerbomb. Nick then countered another attempted powerbomb from Cage with a facebuster.

The Bucks overwhelmed Doyle with more superkicks before connecting with the BTE Trigger to put him away.

Result: The Young Bucks defeated Brian Cage and Jake Doyle by pinfall.

The win gave Matt and Nick a boost ahead of their AEW World Tag Team Championship TLC Match against Cage and Cope and FTR at All Out.

Backstage, Willow Nightingale reflected on her loss to Mercedes Moné at All In. Willow gave Moné credit for their AEW Women’s World Championship match but made it clear that the setback had not changed her determination to regain the title.

She also addressed the comments made by Moné and Thekla on Dynamite, challenging both women to say those things to her face.

“Hangman” Adam Page, Bandido and Brody King vs. Braddah Kaimi, LBJ and Vin Parker

Brody King set the tone immediately, battering Vin Parker with chops. Braddah Kaimi and LBJ tried to get involved, only to receive the same treatment.

With all three opponents stacked in the corner, Bandido launched into an assisted cannonball. King followed with a cannonball of his own, leaving Parker vulnerable to the finishing sequence.

Adam Page planted Parker with Deadeye before Bandido came off the top rope with a frog splash to complete a dominant performance.

Result: “Hangman” Adam Page, Bandido and Brody King defeated Braddah Kaimi, LBJ and Vin Parker by pinfall.

The Bang Bang Gang later discussed leaving All In without championship gold and the impact of New Level’s arrival in the AEW World Trios Championship division.

Juice Robinson also looked ahead to teaming with Ace Austin against Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight, putting the Don Callis Family on notice.

Elsewhere, AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions The Brawling Birds offered Divine Dominion another opportunity at All Out, proposing a Chicago Street Fight.

Nick Wayne vs. Komander

Nick Wayne established control early, but Komander’s speed quickly became a problem. A series of arm drags sent Wayne outside and gave Komander room to build momentum.

Wayne settled back into the match once the action returned to the ring, catching Komander with a snap suplex and continuing to wear him down through the commercial break.

Komander eventually fought back with a DDT, a dropkick and a 619. He followed with a Mexican Destroyer that sent Wayne to the floor, then launched himself from the top rope with a twisting dive.

Back inside, Komander attempted Lindo, but Wayne got his knees up and turned the counter into a two-count.

Wayne continued finding answers to Komander’s offence, reversing a casadora into a dragon suplex. When Komander attempted a diving headbutt, Wayne caught him with a cutter before finishing the match with a fisherman’s buster.

Result: Nick Wayne defeated Komander by pinfall.

Wayne had little opportunity to enjoy the victory. Chris Jericho entered the ring immediately afterwards and flattened him with the Judas Effect.

During a backstage interview with Lexy Nair, The Conglomeration’s conversation took an unusual turn when Kyle O’Reilly began discussing backpacks. Roderick Strong responded by walking away.

Konosuke Takeshita also appeared and reminded everyone that he was “The Alpha.”

TBS Championship: Persephone (c) vs. VertVixen

Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. accompanied Persephone to ringside before taking a seat on commentary for the champion’s defence.

Persephone, who also holds the CMLL World Women’s Championship, used her strength to take charge of the opening lockup and force VertVixen into the corner.

VertVixen found a response with a shoulder tackle and then tripped Persephone during an exchange off the ropes, earning an early two-count. However, an attack from the second rope backfired when Persephone caught her and sent her flying with a back body drop.

A dropkick brought the champion a nearfall, but VertVixen continued to battle. After the break, she escaped a choke and caught Persephone with a kick to the face. Another kick in the corner and a powerbomb gave the challenger a two-count.

Persephone recovered by countering a suplex and landing another dropkick. She then lifted VertVixen into position for the Razor’s Edge and connected to retain her championship.

Result: Persephone defeated VertVixen by pinfall to retain the TBS Championship.

The punishment continued after the bell as Baker and Persephone attacked VertVixen. Baker was preparing to apply Lockjaw when Maya World arrived alongside Thunder Rosa.

Their appearance brought the attack to an end, with Baker and Persephone leaving the ring rather than confronting them.

Motor City Machine Guns vs. The Swirl

Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin made their official AEW in-ring debut against Blake Christian and Lee Johnson.

Shelley began against Johnson and quickly secured an armbar. Johnson escaped and brought in Christian, while Sabin entered for the Machine Guns.

Shelley and Sabin immediately showed their familiar teamwork, driving Christian face-first into the turnbuckle before Sabin followed with an arm drag and a crucifix pin for two.

Christian answered with a dropkick and tagged Johnson. The action soon drew all four men into the ring, with Sabin catching Christian with a backfist and sending him outside.

The Machine Guns then combined against Johnson before forcing both opponents to the floor. Stereo baseball slides kept The Swirl on the defensive, and Sabin added a dive to the outside.

After the commercial break, Sabin received the hot tag and connected with a crossbody on both opponents. He planted Johnson with a DDT, kicked Christian from the apron and followed with another DDT from the top rope.

Shelley returned to the match, allowing the Machine Guns to deliver their finishing combination and secure a successful debut.

Result: Motor City Machine Guns defeated The Swirl by pinfall.

“Jungle” Jack Perry appeared after the match and made his championship ambitions clear. Perry declared that he would become AEW World Champion, even if the prospect made some people “piss their pants with rage.”

Ricochet and Gates of Agony also addressed their disappointment at All In. The Demand described the event as a disaster, questioned New Level’s legitimacy as a trio and claimed the new champions had been fortunate to beat them at Wembley.

Despite the defeat, their focus remained on the AEW World Trios Championship.

AEW National Championship: Andrade El Idolo (c) vs. Gabe Kidd

Gabe Kidd took an aggressive approach from the opening bell, wrestling Andrade to the canvas before sending him through the ropes.

The challenger followed him outside, kicked him in the back and drove him into the barricade. Kidd then grabbed Andrade’s Casino Gauntlet contract and used it to taunt fans at ringside.

Andrade fought back by driving Kidd’s head into the announce table and chopping him against the barricade. Once they returned to the ring, the champion connected with the Three Amigos.

The fight spilled outside again, where Kidd shoved Andrade from the steel steps. Andrade responded by sending Kidd into the steps before bringing the action back inside.

After avoiding a clothesline, Andrade regained control and climbed to the top rope. His frog splash attempt proved costly, however, as Kidd raised his knees.

Following the commercial break, Andrade delivered a tornado DDT on the floor and briefly stopped to pose for a photograph at ringside.

Back in the ring, Kidd avoided a moonsault, but Andrade landed on his feet and immediately followed with a standing moonsault press for a two-count.

Kidd countered a corner charge and hit a powerbomb for another nearfall. Andrade then escaped an attempted piledriver, sent Kidd into the corner and connected with the running Meteora.

The challenger stayed in the fight, answering with a backdrop before tearing at the turnbuckle. Kidd landed a knee strike, but Andrade responded with a spinning back elbow that nearly ended the contest.

Andrade followed with The Message to finally put Kidd away.

Result: Andrade El Idolo defeated Gabe Kidd by pinfall to retain the AEW National Championship.

Afterwards, Andrade turned his attention to the Casino Gauntlet contract and his pursuit of the AEW World Championship.

He said becoming world champion was only a matter of time, but he intended to wait for the right moment to use his opportunity. In the meantime, Andrade vowed to defend the National Championship every week and establish himself as the greatest champion in its history.

Backstage, Tommaso Ciampa reflected on his AEW debut and the experiences he had already enjoyed with the company. For Ciampa, none compared to competing at All In.

He then set his sights on championship gold, declaring that it was time for the “Psycho Killer” to become the “Psycho King.”

ROH Women’s World Championship Proving Ground Match: Athena vs. Isla Dawn

Isla Dawn entered with two routes to a future championship opportunity. Under Proving Ground rules, she needed to either defeat Athena or survive the ten-minute time limit.

Athena used her power to throw Dawn aside during the opening lockup, but Dawn responded with strikes that knocked the champion down.

A pump kick from Athena sent Dawn outside, where the two continued trading blows. Dawn landed a hard elbow, only for Athena to regain control with a throat chop and repeatedly drive her into the barricade.

Back inside, Athena continued wearing Dawn down with stomps and strikes. Dawn searched for a quick victory with a roll-up and a backslide, but the champion escaped both attempts.

Dawn then connected with a side suplex and a high knee, building another opening. Athena avoided being lifted onto her shoulders and later countered an attack from the top rope.

As Dawn moved towards the corner, Athena caught her with a handstand elbow. The champion then climbed to the top turnbuckle and delivered the O-Face to finish the match.

Result: Athena defeated Isla Dawn by pinfall. Dawn did not earn a future ROH Women’s World Championship opportunity.

The Don Callis Family’s Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight vs. Bang Bang Gang’s Juice Robinson and Ace Austin

Don Callis accompanied Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight for the main event, with Lance Archer also in their corner. Callis joined commentary as Fletcher and Ace Austin opened with an exchange of wristlocks.

Austin used his quickness to take the early advantage, landing an arm drag and a dropkick. Knight tagged himself in and told Fletcher to take a break, but Austin attacked him from behind and connected with another dropkick.

Juice Robinson entered and kept the Bang Bang Gang in control with a double axe handle, an atomic drop and a standing splash. A sidewalk slam followed before Austin returned with a leg drop.

Austin continued with an elbow drop into a headscissors submission. Fletcher then intervened without a tag, catching Austin during an exchange off the ropes and helping turn the match around.

The Don Callis Family’s teamwork was not entirely smooth. Knight and Fletcher began arguing after Knight dropkicked Robinson from the apron.

Austin eventually reached Robinson after the commercial break. Robinson charged through Knight with shoulder tackles, knocked Fletcher from the apron and greeted him with a series of jabs when he returned.

A left hand and a powerbomb brought Robinson a two-count on Knight. Austin then climbed to the top rope, but Fletcher interfered and left him stranded on the turnbuckle.

Knight took advantage with a hurricanrana before combining with Fletcher for a double-team attack. Robinson recovered to remove Knight from the ring, giving Austin the chance to score a nearfall on Fletcher.

Fletcher countered an attempted brainbuster and later hit a Michinoku Driver for two. He looked towards Callis for guidance, only to nearly lose the match to a roll-up.

At ringside, Knight slammed Robinson before Austin caught Knight with a kick to the face. Fletcher responded by dropping Austin with a powerful kick.

Knight and Fletcher then brought the match to a close with a UFO and brainbuster combination, securing the main-event victory for the Don Callis Family.

Result: Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight defeated Juice Robinson and Ace Austin by pinfall.
