Summary

AEW taped the April 11 episode of Collision on April 8 at Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta, with one championship changing hands before the show reaches air. The taping followed an already announced lineup that included Okada's title defense and the trios title match as key parts of the episode.

Results

  • AEW International Championship: Kazuchika Okada (c) def. Myron Reed
  • The Hurt Syndicate (Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin), with MVP, def. Andy Anderson & Mo Jabari
  • Casino Gauntlet No. 2 spot: Rush def. Anthony Bowens
  • Hikaru Shida & Kris Statlander def. Ava Lawless & Gigi Rey
  • The Brawling Birds (Alex Windsor & Jamie Hayter) def. Marina Shafir & Thekla
  • The Young Bucks def. Don Callis Family (El Clon & Hechicero)
  • AEW World Trios Championship: The Dogs (Clark Connors, David Finlay & Gabe Kidd) def. JetSpeed (Kevin Knight & Mike Bailey) and Mistico (c) to win the titles

What The Dogs' title win changes on Collision

The Dogs leaving Edmonton with the AEW World Trios Championship gives Collision an immediate title-picture shakeup on a show that was already built around that match. A belt change on a taped episode also gives the April 11 broadcast a major spoiler talking point beyond a standard results roundup.

Okada's successful defense keeps the AEW International Championship stable while the rest of the card stacked up wins for acts like The Hurt Syndicate, Rush, and The Young Bucks. That gives the episode a clear split between one featured title reign staying intact and another being reset in the trios division.
