Word of advice to all who might think otherwise: when Samoa Joe gets going like that, get out of the ring or risk being a deer caught in the headlights.
Winners: Samoa Joe and HOOK via pinfall.
Christian Cage and Nick Wayne gets retaliation post-match, getting the final laugh.
Adam Copeland cuts a promo on Jon Moxley, challenging him to a one-on-one match at Revolution March 9th in Los Angeles. Something tells me this might start as a 1v1 but it won’t end that way.
2. The Beast Mortos vs. Adam Priest
Adam Priest is a talented ring-worker but he’s quickly dispatched of by the intimidating Beast.
Pure power on display from Beast Mortos! Even Aubrey Edwards is shook!

Remember that Ludacris classic? “Get out the way… MOVE.”
Winner: The Beast Mortos
3. Max Caster comes out for an open challenge and gets quickly put out of his misery by a returning Rush. The Best Wrestler Alive gets taken out quite easily.
Rush and Dralistico remind The Beast Mortos that they are family.
4. The Learning Tree (Chris Jericho and Bryan Keith) vs. The Outrunners
The Outrunners are a lot of fun.
There. I just made the most obvious statement of the year. And it’s only the beginning of February!
The Outrunners chop down the Learning Tree!

But the Learning Tree would get the last laugh.
Winners: Chris Jericho and Bryan Keith of the Learning Tree
Post-match, Big Bill decided to get involved, laying waste to Truth Magnum and Turbo Floyd. Bandido rushes out to make the save as the crowd cheers.
Kyle Fletcher cuts a promo on Mark Briscoe, letting him know that he’s not over losing to him in the Continental Classic. The two will face each other on Collision next week.
Kazuchika Okada and Buddy Matthews continue to tease a feud. This one will deliver in leaps and bounds in the ring when it does happen.
5. Harley Cameron vs. Taya Valkyrie
Is there a wrestler more over than Harley Cameron in 2025? I’ll wait for an answer.
Taya Valkyrie and her Vendetta teammate Deonna Purrazzo are all too familiar with Harley Cameron.
FEEL THE WRATH! Huge win for Harley Cameron as she gets her first AEW televised win!

Winner: Harley Cameron via pinfall.
Timeless Toni Storm cuts a promo on Mariah May, revealing to everyone that the girl in the red shorts was her and that she’s that good of an actress. Pro wrestling can be cinema!
A highlight package airs for Christopher Daniels’ career.
Harley Cameron is outside Mercedes Mone’s locker room with Renee Paquette, ready for a challenge at Grand Slam in two weeks in Australia.
6. Daniel Garcia (c) vs. Kyle O’Rielly vs. Lee Moriarty for the TNT Championship
A triple-threat match with a coveted title on the line?
Sign me up! (To be a viewer. I wouldn’t want to be in the ring for this carnage.)
ROH Pure Champion Lee Moriarty pulling out all the stops to be crowned the TNT Champion!

Despite the odds stacked against him, Daniel Garcia finds a way.
Winner: Daniel Garcia retains via pinfall.
Shane Taylor Promotions surround the ring as Cool Hand Ang and Daddy Magic are in the ring with Kyle O’Rielly and Daniel Garcia. But Adam Cole and Roderick Strong come out to the ring, stopping things from getting out of hand.
A promo airs for next week when Penelope Ford and Thunder Rosa square off on Collision.
A quick video airs with Hologram walking along a street. Will he return soon?
7. Megan Bayne vs. Hyena Hera
Megan Bayne makes her Collision debut.
Speed & power on display!

If you weren’t aware, Megan Bayne is really good. Look for her to have a strong push this year.
Winner: Megan Bayne
A video from earlier in the day airs with Lio Rush (and Action Andretti in the background) responding to Darius Martin. This may be a Dynamite match next week.
As well on Dynamite, Queen Aminata will take on Timeless Toni Storm.
8. Wheeler Yuta and Jon Moxley of the Death Riders vs. FTR in a Mid-South Street Fight
I mean, this is a Street Fight and the Death Riders are involved. Does anyone claim to know what’s about to happen? I sure don’t.
Marina Shafir crashes through the table!

Things look dire near the end as Claudio also enters the conversation. But here come Cope and Jay White to even the odds. Thankfully someone actually aided the locker room against the Death Riders.
Winners: FTR via pinfall.
After the victory, Jon Moxley is isolated in the ring with Rated FTR and Jay White. Before they can do more harm to the AEW Men’s World Champion Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli gets him out of the ring.
Summary
Collision has become a bigger focal point for the promotion since the turn of the calendar. Not having Friday night Rampage might have something to do with that, too.
Megan Bayne looks to be a name fans should make themselves familiar with as soon as possible. She’s here and she means business.
It was refreshing to see the numbers game go against the Death Riders for once.
