AEW COLLISION REPORT
JUNE 26, 2025 (Recorded 6/25)
KENT, WASH. AT SHOWARE CENTER
AIRED ON TBS & MAX
REPORT BY JOSHUA WHITE, PWTORCH CONTRIBUTOR
Commentators: Nigel McGuinness & Tony Schiavone
Ring Announcer: Arkady Aura
Attendance: WrestleTix reported that 2,370 tickets had been distributed; the arena was set up for 2,658.
[HOUR ONE]
-Pyro blasted and Tony Schiavone welcomed everyone to the show from the center of the ring over the top of Elton John. Schiavone welcomed The Outrunners to the ring for a face-to-face with FTR. Turbo Floyd and Truth Magnum made their way to the ring, notably the screen didn’t go to the VHS-effect. Nigel called them “Neo-Narcissists.”
FTR entered with Stokely and marched to the ring. Stokely said that, in theory, FTR should be challenging for the tag team titles, but first they need to address what happened on Collision. Stokely was “flabbergasted” by The Outrunners behavior. Stokely reminded The Outrunners that they used to get along with FTR.
Cash took the microphone and claimed to also be flabbergasted. He maintained that FTR has done nothing wrong. Cash told The Outrunners to think about what they’re throwing away. Cash threw to a video on the big screen of FTR and The Outrunners teaming with each other set to slow, maudlin music.
Dax said that they’re friends, but implied that The Outrunners are jealous because FTR has a much higher ceiling. Dax asked them what happened when they had a chance to win the AEW Tag titles, but they had nothing to say. Dax said they embarrassed themselves. Dax underlined that The Outrunners are a comedy act, and the crowd isn’t laughing with them, but at them. An “Outrunners” chant started while Dax was trying to say the crowd doesn’t care about them. Dax said Outrunners will never make FTR money because they’ll never be FTR good.
As FTR went back up the aisle, Truth Magnum grabbed a microphone. He said that maybe the Outrunners aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, and they like to have fun sometimes. He said that he’ll be damned if the people ever stop believing in The Outrunners. Turbo took the mic and said their only mistake was believing in FTR. He said The Outrunners were put on Earth to wrestle, entertain, and whoop FTR’s ass.
Stokely stopped FTR from charging back to the ring. Stokely said they’re too good to fight in Kent, Washington, but they’ll see them next week in Ontario, California.
(White’s Take: Seems like a lot of work just to get to an FTR and Outrunners match. This was probably the least ridiculous segment ever to include the Outrunners though. And FTR need something to do to explain why they’re not in the hunt or the tag titles, so this will work.)
-They showed a video from Dynamite of Swerve and Ospreay challenging the Young Bucks at All In. They followed up showing Swerve being escorted out of the building and their subsequent attack on Hangman.
(1) THE PATRIARCHY (Christian Cage & Nick Wayne w/Mother Wayne & Kip Sabian) vs. BIG BILL & BRYAN KEITH

(White’s Take: Nothing crazy here, it’s just nice to have to tag teams in the tag division wrestling each other in a tag match.)
-Josh Alexander addressed Adam Cole and promised to free him of the burden on being a fighting champion. He said the only thing undisputed is that Cole has a bad ankle and he won’t walk out with the TNT Championship. In fact, he won’t’ walk out at all. They went to commercial break. [c]
-Back from commercial, Christian was walking backstage telling Nick to listen to his father and good things happen. MVP appeared backstage, clapping for their victory. MVP said he heard what they said last week about becoming tag team champions. MVP told Christian and Nick not to even try for the title. Christian asked if MVP is trying to convince them or himself that they can’t win the belts. Christian said he doesn’t take advice from criminals, even though MVP is a better criminal than manager. Christian said they’re taking the titles. MVP wished them good luck, because they’ll need it.
(2) BRODY KING & TEMPLARIO vs. HECHICERO & ROCKY ROMERO

WINNERS: Brody King & Templario in 10:00
(White’s Take: Fun Collision-style tag team match. Brody is over, and of the many luchadores that have been showing up lately, Tamplario and Hechicero are two of the more interesting options.)
-They threw to a video package on Mercedes Mone, highlighting her globetrotting and title winning. Mercedes claimed to be the global women’s revolution. It cut to a silent film of Toni Storm before Mercedes smashed the projector with a sledgehammer, and they cut to more of a live backstage promo.
Mercedes took a seat next to a couch littered with title belts. Mercedes says Toni is just an act and a mark, like all the fans. Mercedes told Toni she’s not some mother**** she’s the mother*** that’s gonna get ****ed over at All In. Mercedes said it’s her story. Mercedes said she’d buy Toni a nice steak dinner to watch as she gives her a preview when she takes on Mina. She then laughed like a crazy person and rubbed her TBS title also like a crazy person as they cut to commercial. [c]
(White’s Take: This was actually a good Mercedes Mone segment, from the video into the actual backstage promo. She, of course, ended it with her infuriating forced laugh, but ti was still good overall.)
-They returned from break to Lexy backstage with Toni Storm, Luther and Mina Shirakawa. Toni took the microphone to tell Mercedes that, if these are the games she wants to play, Toni was born on a roulette table and will play snooker with her snatch and tic-tac-toe with her tits. And next week, Mina will play cornhole with her…luckily Mina interrupted to tell Toni not to get involved in her match, no matter what. Toni made Mina promise to keep Mercedes alive so she could finish the job.
(3) MEGAN BAYNE (w/Penelope Ford) vs. VERTVIXEN
Megan Bayne entered in full regalia with Penelope as Schiavone let us know that Bayne has not lost a match on Collision. Vertvixen was already in the ring and got a good local pop when they announced her name. The crowd chanted “Defy” as the bell rang with one minute remaining in the hour.

-Penelope laned into the camera and told everyone to bow down as Bayne posed.
-Anthony Bowens was backstage to remind everyone that he is the Pride of Wrestling. He said he’s officially entering a Casino Gauntlet qualifying match. Bowens noted that he told Billy to stay home. Bowens said they can’t have the biggest show of the year without The Pride. He’s got five tools and one rule: prove them wrong.
(White’s Take: Bowens’ character is still iffy for me, but the subtraction of Billy Gunn is a step in the right direction.)
(4) ADAM COLE vs. JOSH ALEXANDER (w/Trent Beretta) – TNT Championship match
Josh Alexander made his entrance accompanied by Trent. They showed a replay of Josh and the Callis Family beating Roddy Strong and Cole in tag action a few weeks ago. Adam Cole’s music blasted through the arena, bringing Cole out by himself. Cole performed the entirety of his entrance.
The bell rang to start the match six minutes into the second hour. As the crowd chanted for Adam Cole. Alexander went right for Cole’s injured ankle. Alexander wrestled Cole into a hammerlock, but Cole countered into a hammerlock of his own. Alexander escaped and locked in a leg guillotine around Cole’s neck.
Cole escaped into a side headlock, but Alexander locked in a front facelock and forced Cole back into the corner where he delivered a loud chop. Nigel detailed Alexander having to get his ear removed and re-attached, adding that maybe it’s not too late for Schiavone’s testicles. Schiavone said it is indeed too late; he’s been married for 44 years.
Alexander took Cole down with a side headlock. Cole muscled his way to his feet and hit the ropes but ran into a shoulder block. Alexander swept Cole’s legs out from under him, but he managed to get back to his feet, ducked a clothesline and connected with a jumping neckbreaker on Alexander.

Cole escaped a powerbomb and then landed a thrust kick to the face. Alexander got to his knees and Cole delivered The Boom knee to the back of the neck. Cole went for the cover and got the win.
WINNER: Adam Cole in 12:00 to retain the TNT Title.
-Cole celebrated his victory, hitting his signature “boom” pose with a young fan in the front row.
(White’s Take: Good match, with the winner never in doubt, even as Alexander would maybe be a more interesting TNT champion than Cole has been.)
-Backstage, someone was asking Ricochet why he bailed on A.R. Fox during their tag match on Dynamite. Fox popped up to specifically ask Ricochet about it, but The Gates of Agony appeared out of nowhere and beat Fox down. They tag team slammed Fox into a chain link fence. Ricochet was pleased and said, “let’s talk.” Ricochet delivered his signature laugh-type- thing as they went to commercial. [c]
-They returned from commercial to a video package for Alex Windsor. She said she’s not here to talk about belonging where the best wrestle, she’s here to prove it.

Skye was agitated and went back to beating Aminata down. Skye hit the ropes but ran into a headbutt from Aminata.

Skye climbed to the top rope and went for double knees to Aminata on the outside. She came up short and landed awkwardly on Aminata’s mid section. It looked bad, but they showed a replay anyway.

WINER: Kyle Fletcher in 14:00
(White’s Take: A fine match in the grand tradition of Collision: Good match, 15 minutes, obvious winner. We do seem to be pointing towards Fletcher challenging for the TNT title. He would maybe be a better champion as Adam Cole remains ice cold aside from his entrance).
-The crowd chanted “Thank you, Kyle” as Archer hit the ring and stomped away at O’Reilly. Fletcher mounted O’Reilly and punched him until Adam Cole’s music hit, bringing out The Paragon and Daniel Garcia to run off Fletcher and Archer. Fletcher screamed at Cole that the TNT title belongs to him as they went off the air.
FINAL THOUGHTS: Hey, have you ever watched and enjoyed an episode of Collision? Well, then you’ll like this episode as well. If you want to nitpick about random tag team pairings, seemingly pointless matches, and obvious outcomes, then this is not the show for you. Otherwise, it was a nice, breezy two hours of wrestling with good action throughout and probably Mercedes’ best non-match performance in AEW. I’d say bonus points for highlights from Dynamite, but is there anyone on the planet that watches Collision but not Dynamite?
