Collision Course - Collision recap for March 29, 2025

"Timeless" Toni Storm heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Toni Storm calls out Megan Bayne almost immediately, but Megan Bayne fails to show, and a spotlight falls on Toni as the lights go out. She admits Bayne was the better woman last week, and that she is embarrassed, hurt and ashamed, and Bayne made it look so easy. Toni lays on the mat as she talks about how she went back to her hotel, turned off all the lights, and replayed what happened over and over wondering if this was what would happen at Dynasty. When the sun came up, she was covered in sweat, and when she went to the bathroom, she remembered who she was. Toni then declares that Bayne's tits will be in her purse at Dynasty before she is booted in the face from out of nowhere by Penelope Ford. Toni fights back, but she is blindsided by Megan Bayne, who hits her with Fate's Descent.

Backstage, we hear from The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Marina Shafir). Claudio says that this Wednesday, he will do something for himself and he will beat Adam Cole one-on-one and show just how ruthless he is as Cole loses his edge. He then says he will leave enough of Cole for Dynasty for him to lose another chance of becoming champion. Jon Moxley says he fears three people in this world: his mother, his sister and his wife, but that was before he met Marina Shafir, and when Shafir snaps, he knows he will be the one to piss her off. He looks forward to Willow Nightingale and Shafir tearing each other apart, then admits Swerve Strickland talked a really big game and that he will have to back it up. Shafir addresses Willow Nightingale, telling her to try to keep smiling when she rips her liver out and shoves it down her throat. Moxley awkwardly steps back.

"Switchblade" Jay White beats Kevin Knight. After the match, Jay White gives Kevin Knight kudos, and says that the fans will see more of him in AEW. The fans chant for Kevin, then the two of them shake hands before Kevin leaves. Jay White says that this year's Owen Hart Tournament will contain the best of the best, and states that he must win and become the AEW World Champion at All In Texas, where he will prove it is still "The Switchblade Era."

We see footage of MJF throw the first pitch for the Texas Rangers. MJF also briefly addresses what happened with The Hurt Syndicate (MVP, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin) on Dynamite.

We see a tweet from X (formerly Twitter) where Ring of Honor Women's World Champion Athena hints that she might say hello to Mercedes Moné during tonight's show.

Mercedes Moné beats Robyn Renegade by submission with the Statement Maker. After the match, Tony Schiavone interviews Mercedes in the ring. Mercedes says she is the greatest TBS Champion of all time and that she came to AEW to win more gold. Mercedes declares for the women's Owen Hart Tournament and that she will become the AEW Women's World Championship.When the competition in the tournament as well as Billie Starkz is mentioned, Mercedes says that even Robyn Renegade has more heart than Billie, then asks who trained Billie, saying that whoever trained her sucks. All of a sudden, Athena heads to the ring. Mercedes tries to hit Athena with the TBS Championship, but Athena ducks and clocks Mercedes. Robyn helps Mercedes up, and she ends up the victim of the Oh Face.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Queen Aminata, who is not cleared to compete tonight and will be replaced in tonight's main event by Billie Starkz. Serena Deeb says that this was preventable, and that she had the game plan, yet Aminata did not listen to her. She says that every time Aminata listens to her, she wins, but when she does not, she loses and even gets injured. Aminata tells Serena that she is not listening to her "trash," and Serena says that while she respects her decision, she knows she is right, then hands her the binder that she has been carrying around for some "light reading."

The Learning Tree ("The Redwood" Big Bill and "The Bad Apple" Bryan Keith) beat Top Flight (Darius and Dante Martin). After the match, The Cru (Lio Rush and Action Andretti) shows up with chains, but AR Fox steps in, and The Cru retreats.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Jamie Hayter. Jamie says it feels great to be back and that she does not do things by any half-measure, and that she is excited to be in the ring with Billie Starkz. While she respects Billie's fire, she does not mistake respect for mercy and that she will hit back and knock her on her arse. She tells Billie to either be smart or find out the hard way. Jamie then declares for the women's Owen Hart Tournament, and that she will leave All In Texas as a champion.

Undisputed Kingdom (Adam Cole, Kyle O'Reilly, Roderick Strong) heads to the ring. Shortly afterwards, Daniel Garcia arrives with "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard and heads to the ring for his face-to-face meeting with Adam Cole. Adam Cole says tensions have been high, but he still has all the respect in the world for Daniel Garcia, calling their last two matches two of the hardest in his career and Garcia "the future of AEW" and "a fighting champion." He says that in their last match, neither of them got the job done, and that this needs to end with one man proving that they are better than the other, and Adam Cole says it is him. After Cole says that they must finish this fight, Daniel Garcia says that he has been in the ring with him for almost two months straight and that it eats him alive that he cannot beat him. Daddy Magic asks Daniel Garcia how many opportunities Cole is going to get, as it is his job to beat him, and that he does not have to do this. Garcia says he does not have to do this, but he wants to, and is down for a rematch. Roderick Strong agrees with Cole saying that Garcia is the future of AEW, but says Garcia is "not there yet." Daddy Magic takes offense to this, then Garcia says he has had enough of the noise and the distraction, then declares there will be no seconds at ringside in the rematch. He says there will be no seconds and no time limit at Dynasty, and this time, there will be a winner, and it will be him.

Backstage, we hear from Athena and Billie Starkz. Athena says that if Mercedes Moné wants to be "a passive-aggressive bitch," then she will eat the floor, and warns her to keep her and Billie's names out of their mouths. She then calls Mercedes an inspiration for collecting champions, then declares for the women's Owen Hart Tournament. Athena then mentions that Billie Starkz has a match tonight with Jamie Hayter and tells her that she will be watching very closely.

Wheeler Yuta beats Dax Harwood with the Seatbelt. Yuta leaves with Claudio Castagnoli through the crowd after the match. Dax Harwood argues with the referee afterwards, then shoves him into the corner. Security rushes in to hold Dax down in the corner, and referee Paul Turner runs away. Cash Wheeler runs in to pull security back, but gets shoved back by Dax. Dax offers his hand to help Cash up, and Cash slaps it and briefly confronts Dax before walking away.

Backstage, Alicia Atout interviews The Patriarchy (Kip Sabian, Nick Wayne and Mother Wayne) when The Cru (Lio Rush and Action Andretti) shows up, asking Nick Wayne what is going on with "[his] boy" AR Fox. Wayne says he is not associated with him, but they mention AR Fox nearly laying waste to him before he joined The Patriarchy. Nick Wayne says that The Cru want a helping hand because they cannot get the job done, and while Nick Wayne says he is done with AR Fox, Sabian says they should hear them out. Lio Rush says that when it comes to AR Fox, nobody knows him better than Nick Wayne.

Hologram beats Blake Christian and extends his undefeated streak to 22-0.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Thunder Rosa and Kris Statlander, who are in the women's Owen Hart Tournament. Kris Statlander says she is a different person than she was a year ago, but promises that nobody can stop her. Thunder Rosa says it will be different if she faces her, as she never lost the AEW Women's World Championship and has not won another since, and that she will win it back after the Owen Hart Tournament. Statlander says that will not happen if she faces her. The two of them subsequently look forward to facing each other in the tournament.

Jamie Hayter beats Billie Starkz. After the match, Athena shows up and stares down Hayter from the ramp to end the show.

Here are the highlights from tonight's show!
