MY THOUGHTS

A great two hour show here. The wrestling side of things was really strong and consistent throughout, we had some nice build up to Revolution. It looks like AEW is in the midst of a pivot from where they were towards the end of 2025. The stories are starting to build up and we are seeing that things are building to take us in multiple directions. I loved the whole idea of Cope taking out the Death Riders and aiming to make his match at Revolution a one on one, I was surprised that The OutRunners were given the title shot and I am here for Swerve working his way back to the AEW Championship.

MY THOUGHTS

Some absolute great wrestling on this show. Collision has really stepped up its game over the past few months and this was no different. Of course, there was extreme competition this week with WWE hosting Elimination Chamber and the obvious news coming out of the weekend. This Collision delivered some absolute banger matches and definitely continued the upwards trend for the show. I like that the tag match was played the way it was and Queen Aminata beating Julia Hart was unexpected, but it lends itself to the future. Let’s see what the next week has in store.
