Collision Course - Collision recap for January 31, 2026

Darby Allin beats Clark Connors by submission with the Scorpion Deathlock. After the match, Darby Allin says he has won the war with The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia) and beat every single of them, and he also stood at the top of Mount Everest. He pledges to stand at the top of AEW before he is suddenly attacked by Gabe Kidd. Gabe Kidd and Clark Connors slam Darby Allin onto the top of the ring steps before trapping him under them, then Gabe Kidd stands on the steps and states that he is doing this for himself. He tells Darby that he cannot move on after Darby beat him at Worlds End, and that this will not stop until Darby is pushing up daisies. Gabe Kidd promises to follow Darby to the ends of the earth until it is written that he has ended Darby Allin.





We see a video package chronicling the events leading to Sisters of Sin (Julia Hart and Skye Blue) vs. The Babes of Wrath (Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron) for the AEW Women's World Tag Team Championships later tonight.

Backstage, we hear from JetSpeed ("The Jet" Kevin Knight and "Speedball" Mike Bailey). They tell The Don Callis Family that they are not too hard to find, and says that not only does "Hangman" Adam Page no longer ride alone, but they are at his side as "Jet Set Rodeo."

The Rascalz (Zachary Wentz and Dezmond Xavier) beat Cru (Lio Rush and Action Andretti) in their AEW debut match.



We see Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor. Hayter says that the two of them have a lot in common, then says that things are about to change before she proposes that the two of them have some fun.

Backstage, we hear from Jon Moxley, who says that there are few people in wrestling that he can relate to, and that Konosuke Takeshita is one of them. He says that Takeshita wants a challenge and a big fight feeling and is all alone with his guts and his skill. Moxley feels that they understand each other, but warns The Don Callis Family that The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia, "The Problem" Marina Shafir) can do a full-on gang way for fun. Moxley says he knows what motivates Takeshita, stating that Takeshita beat him in the Continental Classic and that he wants to beat him the next time. He says that Takeshita must beat him alone and that he knows what that is going to take.

Orange Cassidy and "Timeless" Toni Storm beat Gino Medina and Lady Bird Monroe. After the match, Orange is attacked from behind by Wheeler Yuta. When Toni slaps Yuta in the face, she is attacked by Marina Shafir. Shafir makes quick work of Toni before she and Yuta gang up on Orange Cassidy. Wheeler Yuta then holds a mock interview with Orange Cassidy, saying that he has spread a lot of lies about him, and now that he has thoroughly kicked his ass to the fans' chagrin. Orange makes fun of Yuta's "garbage" hair, and Yuta attacks him again. Yuta finds the medical attendant's bag and pulls out a pair of scissors, but Toni Storm gets up and suplexes Shafir before wrestling the scissors out of Yuta's hands, causing Yuta to flee. Toni challenges Yuta and Shafir to a mixed tag hair vs. hair match in two week at Grand Slam Australia.



Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Eddie Kingston, Ortiz and Grizzled Young Veterans (Zack Gibson and James Drake) in a no-physicality interview. Eddie Kingston wants to move on from Grizzled Young Veterans, and Zack Gibson says that Eddie has never walked a mile in Grizzled Young Veterans' shoes. An aggravated Eddie challenges Grizzled Young Veterans to a parking lot fight. Suddenly, Eddie and Ortiz are attacked by Big Bill and "The Bounty Hunter" Bryan Keith. After Gibson says it is not hard to find people who do not like Eddie and Ortiz, James Drake gives Big Bill some money before Gibson tells Eddie and Ortiz that they will put this to bed in the parking lot.

We see a video package for Tommaso Ciampa vs. Mark Briscoe for the TNT Championship.

Tommaso Ciampa beats Mark Briscoe to become the TNT Champion! He becomes the first wrestler since Mercedes Moné to win a championship in his debut match. After the match, Mark Briscoe raises Tommaso Ciampa's hand in a sign of respect. "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher is soon seen on the ramp, slowly clapping as he looks at Tommaso Ciampa before telling him that the TNT Championship belongs to him. Ciampa stares him down from the ring and dares him to come and get it.



As The Don Callis Family beats people up backstage, "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander calls out Jon Moxley, saying that the family has their sights set on championship gold. Lance Archer tackles three people at once after Rocky "Azucar" Romero heads to ringside to guest on commentary for the next match.

"The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada retains the AEW International Championship against Adam Priest.



Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews The Rascalz (Zachary Wentz, Dezmond Xavier, Myron Reed). The Rascalz celebrate their win, but they also have no problem with a parking lot brawl. Eddie Kingston and Ortiz show up, and Eddie says that if Big Bill and "The Bounty Hunter" Bryan Keith also want to play in the parking lot, then he and The Rascalz can make the parking lot brawl an eight-man war.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Tommaso Ciampa, who is with his wife and daughter Willow, the latter of whom are on-screen briefly. Ciampa says this was not possible without his family by his side, and ever since he joined AEW, the fans have welcomed him as part of their family. He has nothing but respect for Mark Briscoe, and says that AEW is where the best wrestle. He then hears the championship talking to him, says "I love you, too," then catches up with his family before telling the fans that they will do something special together now that he is TNT Champion.

The Babes of Wrath (Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron) retain the AEW Women's World Tag Team Championships against Sisters of Sin (Julia Hart and Skye Blue). After the match, Julia Hart and "The Toxic Spider" Thekla attack The Babes of Wrath, and Kris Statlander gets in the ring and brawls with Thekla until the numbers game catches up. Statlander soon becomes a one-woman wrecking crew, but she is soon attacked from behind by Penelope Ford, who is soon joined by Megan Bayne, who also beats Statlander up. Triangle of Madness (Julia Hart, Skye Blue, Thekla), Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford stand over Statlander and The Babes of Wrath as the show ends.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for January 22, 2026

Before the next match, "Smart" Mark Sterling talks about how he has not been attacked since 128 days ago when his bicep was ripped to the bone thanks to Story Denali. He then says that if the Dallas Cowboys had even one athlete the caliber of The Premier Athletes (Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari, Story Denali), then they would have made the playoffs instead of watching from the sidelines like the fan. He then gives the fans the chance to tell The Premier Athletes that they rule only to be told they suck.

Adam Priest and "The Dynamite Kid" Tommy Billington beat The Premier Atheletes (Tony Nese and Ariya Daivari) after Priest rolls up Nese. After the match, The Swirl ("Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian and "Big Shotty" Lee Johnson) and Jay Lethal attack Billington and Priest, with The Premier Athletes joining in.

She says she has work to do in creating her legacy as the very first ROH Pure Women's Champion, then issues an open challenge to anyone anywhere, as she is a fighting champion by design and excellence is required.



"Taiga Style" Lee Moriarty beats "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard by submission with the Border City Stretch in an ROH Pure Championship Proving Ground Match. After the match, the rest of Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor, "The Captain" Shawn Dean, "Bad News and Tattoos" Carlie Bravo, Trish Adora) go on the attack on Matt Menard just before he can shake hands.

Ace Austin beats Aaron Solo.

We hear from Athena, who says that she is looking back on 2025 and trying to prove she is the best, but time and time again, she is undergoing disappointment, frustration and loss. She wants 2026 to be the year she gets back on track, but she does not know if she can do that right now. She says that she has a massive target on her back, even when she is rebuilding and rethinking things while proving to be the best only to come up short. Athena says she wants to be passionate, but she stands a broken woman, and wants to know why she is in the position where she cannot reclaim gold for her minions. She then says that the only person she can rely upon is her.



Cru (Lio Rush and Action Andretti) - now accompanied by Lacey Lane - beat "Mr. All Day" Will Allday and Jay Alexander.

In backstage footage from earlier today, Christopher Daniels states that Leila Grey has proven that she is a warrior, especially against Mercedes Moné. He then announces that Leila Grey has suffered an injury that will keep her out of the ring for some time, but before that, he and Leila met another warrior who will get the opportunity to prove herself: Zayda Steel. Zayda says Christopher Daniels says that Christopher Daniels is a legend, and when he called, she knew she had to show up and show out.

Billie Starkz and Diamanté beat Shay Karmichael and Reiza Clarke.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Cru (Lio Rush, Action Andretti, Lacey Lane). Lio Rush says it has been a long time since they have been in the building, but they are back. Andretti says they had things to overcome, but they overcame, and they are back with Lacey Lane. Lacy says that Cru matches her definition of crazy well and that she has found her crew.



Before the next match, "Smart" Mark Sterling wants to know why nobody is talking about their undefeated streak in 2025 as well as 2026, as well as why they are told that they suck. He tries to get the crowd to say that they rule only to be told that they suck anyway.

Taya says her schedule is loaded and that her management will get with Red Velvet.



The Von Erichs (Marshall and Ross Von Erich) beat MxM Collection (Mansoor and Mason Madden) via pinfall with the claw slam from Ross Von Erich to Mansoor.

Adam Cole says everyone wants a shot at his title, but that is the way he likes it and will take on anyone anywhere for the title.

Kyle O'Reilly takes exception to this, while Roderick Strong wants to fight them. Zack Gibson says they will see them next week and see if they have any fight in them. Adam Cole tells Grizzled Young Veterans that they will have to earn the victory, and that the pressure is on them. Paragon leave.

AEW pays tribute to the life and career of the late Steve "Mongo" McMichael with Mongo's widow Misty and Dean Malenko. AEW is also partnering with the Les Turner ALS Foundation in memory of Mongo. "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair then shows up, and says that Chicago, Illinois is one of the best wrestling towns in the world and that Mongo was more man than anyone he has ever known, having fought ALS for six years. He praises Misty for never leaving Mongo's side and learning to become a nurse to fight ALS with him, then thanks the fans for coming out tonight. (Shortly after this, TNT and MAX accidentally cut to Black Adam during the last thirty minutes of the East Coast transmission. Ten minutes later, the following message crawls across the screen on TNT on the East Coast: "Due to technical difficulties, AEW Collision is not airing tonight. Please check allelitewrestling.com for wrestling updates." The stream of the show on MAX also cuts off at the same time. It is soon after revealed that a technical problem involving show delivery and recording was the cause. The West Coast transmission airs unaffected, and the show is later uploaded in its entirety to MAX.)

Swerve Strickland beats Blake Christian. After the match, "Big Shotty" Lee Johnson attacks Swerve from behind as The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) approach the ring, but Swerve outwits him and hits him with a jumping Flatliner.

Omega is ganged up on at first, but he soon gets the upper hand. Matthew flees, and he has to save Nicholas from getting more of a beating than he already does.



We hear from Samoa Joe, who says that Jon Moxley is simply motivated and that he and The Death Riders (Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Marina Shafir) love to create chaos.

He says he will not be a problem that will be distracted or will go away, and that he is coming for the AEW World Championship, and there is nothing The Death Riders can do about it.

Lethal says he will be taking the reigns from here on in, then everyone else walks out on Sonjay. Sonjay Dutt stops Satnam Singh, but even Satnam wants nothing to do with him now.



"Platinum" Max Caster is in the ring. After stating that he will bring "a playoff-like atmosphere" to New Orleans, Louisiana to the chagrin of the fans and getting his own chant over, he says that New Orleans' streets smell like "horse urine."
