AEW Collision 3-22-26 - Slam Dunk Sunday

 

The event is starting soon graphic and droning music airs for seemingly 70 years. After starting at 11 for the feed, by 11:35PM, we get the show actually starting! OC and Roddy face off with Old Man Jay Lethal and Lee Johnson. Lethal takes a Demolition Decapitation by stepping off the second, then the bottom and then just drops an elbow. Trillion backbreakers by Roddy! Lee gets a brainbuster and Lethal hits the King's Elbow for 2.5. End of Heartache to Lee and OC covers for the win. Twas fun by lordy what an odd choice for an opener. We get RODDY LORE lamenting the loss of the Paragon and he realized he needed to change AND HE IS A MEMBER OF THE CONGLOMORATION! 

Connors and Finlay call them out again. Divine Dominion are out and the tag belt looks perfect on Bayne and Bayne wins with a powerbomb after Kross massacres one person. Ciampa vs. THE MOTH LIO RUSH and this presentation is weird, but memorable and he really does all of his same moves - but very different setups. He just looks much older bald and a bit chunky, but it fits this act. Rana on the corner but Ciampa hits a draping knee on the floor.

Rush gets a Nakamura-style multi-forearm and elbow combo before a schoolboy into a tornado kick. KNEE TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD! LOWPE STUNNER GETS 2! BACK TO BACK STUNNERS BY RUSH! Forearms aplenty AND OVERHAND CHOPS APLENTY! Kneeling BLACK MASS BY RUSH! Project Ciampa hits for 2.9! KNEELING BARE KNEE SHOT WINS IT! This ruled - an absolute must-watch match.

Trios tag title is the main event BUT FIRST we get a Swerve-Omega hype video. Josh, Clon, and Takeshita are out to face Mistico and JetSpeed! Josh hits a slam on Clon's knees for 2 before Clon works with Mistico. All the heels set up Mistico to shine brightly which really makes this a perfect match for the live crowd too. Blue thunder by Takeshita gets 2 and Knight avoids the knee! Knight spikes him on a DDT. DOUBLE JUMP RANA BY MISTICO TO CLON!? Lordy!

AND IT'S ONLY 2 - which given that Josh was taken out with his bad knee, I'd just have that as the finish. Clon taps to la Mistica, which is good for the live crowd. Fantastic show overall.

 

AEW Collision 3-21-26 - Slam Dunk Saturday

 

We start off with Fletcher vs. Robbie Eagles and HOUSE RULES FOOTAGE OF EAGLES WINNNIN! Robbie snaps a rana off the rope and Eagles snaps a standing sliced bread. Robbie nails a series of forearms and an uppercut but he eats a half a half! Poison rana by Eagles and a superkick! Brainbuster wins it for Fletcher! 

Pac and Mox cut a promo on WILLIAM and Pac will take him out. LFI beats dudes. Thekla says Toni is running scared because THIS TITLE TASTES LIKE ME AND IT IS EVERYTHING I AM AND EVERYONE SHOULD FAKE THEIR OWN DEATH! Sisters of Sin are out to face THE BRAWLING BIRDS! Hayter gets a side backbreaker off a deja vu headscissor attempt by Julia. Thekla vs. Mina on Dynamite for the title! The sisters double-team WINDSAH! for an ad break. Wilde Thing by Julia! Code Blue countered into an irish curse by Hayter! Double gordbuster and double superkick by the sisters! AVALANCHE CODE BLUE GETS 2 FOR THE HEELS! 2 BIRDS 1 STONE FINISHES! Okay that ruled!

Brody wants gold and we get the Death Riders' Claudio and Danny in a tag match next with them facing Komander and Mascara Dorada. They tie in Claudio not having the belt on this pre-taped show to him losing last night in a good move to make it seem live. Claudio catches a Komander dive on the floor and powerslams him on the announce table. Danny sunset flips Dorada into an uppercut for 2! Neutralizer wins it!

AEW Dynamite 3-19-26

AEW had an all-timer of a show with Revolution and Dynamite is back. It's funny how things can work out because two days ago, I moved forward a new potential job, interviewed yesterday over the phone and in-store today so it's been a fun whirlwind. It's a sales job that fits in with what I did with Best Buy nicely, but for more money and commission - so we'll see. Just having a job right now is key and being lean with spending has helped a lot. PPV recap made it feel like an all-timer and Ospreay starts us off against Blake Christian!

Ospreay launches off a headlock and knees him in the jaw before a dive to the floor. Ospreay eats a DDT and some stomps on the neck before landing a hidden blade for the win. Mox is out and we get a brawl and he goes for the tiger driver but Pac jumps him and puts him in a brutalizer! And now it's time for the Bang Bang Gang against the Death Riders. Fosbury flop to Mox by Ace! Punches aplenty to Yuta before Danny comes down and gets attacked. LEFT HAND OF GOD TO YUTA! Death Rider to Ace Austin wins it! Gabe Kidd edgelord promo for the coffin match tonight. Or next.

Kenny wants Swerve to put his title shot on the line against him one more time at some point. They fight in the parking lot area, which is brightly lit and choke each other on a car. Gabe gets ethered up and Darby drives him to the building. Or rather off a sorta ramp into a car crash. Sure whatever. Okay so this is not WWE '13 and they're apparently still having this match. Darby pushes a roadcase into the venue with Gabe on it. Gabe is put in a straitjacket but not well and Gabe chucks him around. Gabe smashes his hands in the coffin for a break. Boy this show has just...not been it.

Avalanche code red hits for Darby! Darby bites Gabe's nose to avoid the coffin. Gabe eats a few skateboard shots! Coffin drops and suicide dive win it and okay cool whatever. DYNASTY IS ON 4/12!? They need a lineup for that ASAP. He wants the title and gets no theme playing. Yikes. Swerve says he holds all the cards for the match with Kenny, so he wants his EVP status if he gives him this shot. Bailey promo about toughness. YAY DUNKZILLA! Davis vs. Bailey is up. 

Standing SSP after corner kicks get 1. Triangle moonsault to the floor lands flush for Bailey. Davis wants the gutwrench driver but Bailey fights out and eats a killer chop. THE DUNKZILLA DRIVER GETS 2.9! Spike piledriver gets 2.9! Pop-up rana gets 2.9 for Bailey! MOONSAULT WITH THE KNEES hits for 2! Corner high kick hits and Ultima Weapon wins it. Collision has Robbie Eagles vs. Fletcher for the TNT Title. MJF after the show says he had the greatest iron man, dog collar and Texad death match of all time HE IS MR. REVOLUTION! Adrenaline helped BUT HE WON AND HE STILL HAS THE TRIPLE B! And he's 30 and already a legend. 

Okada buries Takeshita and Trent buries Jack's bus! Marina vs. Mina is up and Mina has a bat and the charisma of 200 people just holding it up. Marina hits a uranage and some grounded elbows. Back suplex off the apron to Mina and Marina runs wild. Mina GRABS A BOTTLE AND SMASHES MARINA! STORM ZERO WINS IT! THE BEAUTIFUL ANDRADE IS HERE and Jon Cruz gives him something - and it's a lot of money and Don wants MJF's money to take out Darby. Perry starts off strong with an Orihara moonsault before the heels heat up with the Bucks with fast-break offense and eat kicks! SHARPSHOOTERS AND OKADA IS IN THE SNARE TRAP!

MELTZER DRIVER MEETS AN OKADA DROPKICK MID-MOVE FOR NICK! Rocky hits sliced bread and Tret gets a busaiku! BTE TRIGGER AND THE LAUNCHING KNEE WINS IT! Nick says they had fun tonight but blew it on Sunday, and their dad gave them a pep talk and there's no one to stop them getting the belts again. ENTER CAGE AND COPE! 

Cope says he's back to rectify things with FTR and look at his wife again. Cope and Cage get another tag titles hot at Dynasty and Cage wants MORE MONEY! And FTR is out and gets beaten up. 

AEW Revolution 2026 - 3-15-26 - Hangman vs. MJF for the Title

 

It's a loaded card and a really loaded-up Zero Hour with two titles matches as the TBS Title is on the line with Willow against Lena Kross and the National Title battle royal. I expect Willow to win this one and then lose the tag titles later and for Jack Perry to win the National. A pretty epic video airs and MyAEW looks gorgeous! Social Media Italian Influencers are starting things off and we hear from WAYNE BRADY IN 2026!? AJ Boom hits a clothesline and a powerslam! Wayne Brady gets involved and Boom and Doom win it. Mox-Takeshita hype video! 

Kross vs. Willow is out with the champ coming out last. Kross tackles her down and gets an electric chair facebuster on the buckle for 2. Willow gets a spinebuster for 2.5! OVERHAND CHOPSAPLENTY! CANNONBALL MISSES FOR WILLOW! Willow pounce meets a superkick! JACKHAMMER no a backslide wins it for Willow! Bayne attacks and Harley saves with a pipe! National title time and Perry has THE JURASSIC EXPRESS bus with Luchasaurus driving with one arm. That feels like a bad idea. Everyone brawls on the floor and Lio Rush has shaved his head and hits a dive before Komander hits a ropewalk dive. 

Ricochet misses a Stinger splash and Perry spears him with a takedown. Lio hits the slingshot stunner to Mortos before Komander hits a ropewalk dragonrana to him! Johnny gets a few seconds to shine before he's taken out and he feels like a guy who should be in the NXT/TNA/AAA pipeline. BOWENS AND SHIBATA TEASE for the Opps. BANGARANG BY DALTON! Komander takes out Trent but Garcia removes it and chucks him out! CIAMPA KNEE TO GARCIA TAKES HIM OUT! Shibata and Juice action! Shibata is out! ACE AUSTIN RAINS DOWN SIDE ELBOWS TO RUSH! Ace hits a tilt a whirl backbreaker to Ricochet!

Ciampa knees Austin out! On the PPV portion, Perry wins it with some apron warfare! FTR vs Bucks hype video with the BUCKS FAMILY! They pose and flip and Matt eats a double pancake on the table! STUFF PILEDRIVER ON MATT ON THE APRON! Nick and Dax are sliced up! Matt tags in and eats a hard kick to the bad right arm!

The ring is just caked in blood already. STUFF PILEDRIVER GETS 3 BUT THE FOOT IS ON THE ROPE! NICK IS ALIVE! FTR TRIGGER GETS 1! DOUBLE SUPERICK AND A SHATTER MACHINE FROM THE BUCKS! EVP/BTE TRIGGER GETS 2.9! STOKE IS KNOCKED DOWN AND THE MELTZER DRIVER GETS 2.9! AVALANCHE SHATTER MACHINE WINS IT FOR FTR! Wow! That may be their best match yet!

AND COPE IS BACK! THEY BEAT UP STOKE AND HOLD THE GOLD HIGH! They tease Cope and Cage vs. FTR and MAYBE C and C vs. the Bucks in a retirement match. Marina vs. Toni with Marina dominating before a mother's milk meets A HIP ATTACK AND STORM ZERO! Toni wins the battle but RONDA ROUSEY IS HERE TO HELP MARINA WHOOP ASS! This segues into Mox vs. Takeshita! 

Mox clips a knee! BACK AND FORTH FOREARMS! BLUE THUNDER GETS 2! Mox gets 2 off a piledriver! TAKE BLEEDS! RAGING FIRE! 2.999! Driving knee BUT THE KNEE GIVES OUT AND THE SHEER DROP DEATHRIDER GETS 2.9! AVALANCHE DEATH RIDER HITS FOR 2.999 AND MOX WANTS AN RNC! AND HE GETS IT AND WINS!? Wow okay.

ALSO NOW HERE'S WILL OSPREAY BACK! HOLY SHIT WHAT IN THE FUCK. HE RUNS WILD WITH HIDDEN BLADES AND A CORKSCREW MOONSAULT! Willow is hurt but HARLEY IS SICK OF THEIR SHIT and okay so that's their out. Okay so Ospreay is like seemingly fine and seemingly also going for the Continental at either the next PPV or ALL IN. 

Kinda still floored by Ospreay, so this is the perfect follow-up because you can have this be cold and it's okay - it's all about having Willow lose due to the injury and making Bayne and Kross look strong in a video package later. Bayne stinger splashes Harley! DVD by Willow! STEREO FALLAWAYS BY THE HEELS! Busaiku knee by Bayne and a German by Kross to Harley! Backslide only gets 2 on Kross here! DOUBLE CHOKESLAM WINS IT AND WE GOT NEW CHAMPS!

THREE HOUSE CALLS WIN and Kenny saves before a swerve stomp on the cinder block! Women's title time!

Thekla is out with HER energy and it's 2/3 falls so they should go to a third with Thekla winning the first to keep her strong. Thekla gets a quick cradle for 2 and gets the first fall with a BACKLUND BRIDGE WITH THE ROPE! Stat suplexes her on the floor before they fight up for a spider superplex and THEKLA HITS IT!

Trios title time! All the faces are out to Mistico's theme and have gear on inspired by him. Wow what an icon! Mistico and Okada start and the DCF unmasks Mistico's partners! Mistico destroyers Fletcher! Bailey SSP hits and Knight hits Fletcher after a near belt shot! ULTIMA WEAPON BUT DAVIS SHOVES KNIGHT ONTO THEM FOR 2.9! DAVIS HITS THE DUNKZILLA DRIVER! Hook kick by Bailey on Davis! LA MISTICA AND THE UFO SPLASH WINS IT! Five billion stars! AND MISTICO IS ALL ELITE! Goddamn every second of this was special.

Bandido and Andrade go at it and Andrade nails him with a kneeling powerbomb before showing off how well his concoctions are working. Andrade eats a German into the buckle! SSP BY BANDIDO GETS 2! SHOTGUN KNEES IN THE CORNER GET 2 FOR ANDRADE! DM turned into a cradle for 2! Avalanche fallaway moonsault gets 2.5 before Bandido turns it into a stretch muffler! Torture rack GTS GETS 2.5!

Excalibur ties this match into the history of the first AEW match ever with DoN's battle royal closing with MJF and Hangman with Hanger winning. 

MJF is out in Terry Funk gear and has the Dapper Yapper say that he isn't from a piece of shit town like LA. STAPLES TO MJF AND HE JUST RIPS IT OFF HIS CHEST TOO! PAPERCUTS! Hanger brings in A FUCKING WINDOW! Max breaks it and GETS SLAMMED ON IT AND THEN DRAGGED THROUGH IT!  

MJF gets a broom and sweeps the glass out to a "sweep forever" chant before Hanger grabs the broom and snaps it and then jabs him with the jagged edge!

They manage to reference Punk at Revolution without saying his name. The fans want fire but no one has a lighter.
