AEW Collision Preview (4/16/26): Start Time, Match Card, How To Watch & Live Stream

After a new AEW World Champion was crowned on Dynamite Spring Break Thru, could we see a new Women's World Champion on Collision?

The aftermath from AEW Dynasty continues on a special Thursday edition of AEW Collision Spring Break Thru.

Thekla managed to stand tall over Jamie Hayter and retain the AEW Women's World Championship at AEW Dynasty, but only by using some extra leverage from the ring ropes. Last night on AEW Dynamite, Hayter's Brawling Birds teammate, Alex Windsor, confronted Thekla about using nefarious means to hold on to the world title.

After a testy exchange that led to Windsor thwarting an attack from the Sisters of Sin, a challenge was made official for tonight on Collision, and Thekla will defend the AEW Women's World Championship against Alex Windsor.

Can Windsor avenge her teammate, or will Thekla's toxic venom force her to fall short as well?

Eliminator matches

Jon Moxley walked out of Dynasty still the Continental Champion after emerging victorious over Will Ospreay. While his war with Ospreay (and United Empire) doesn't seem to be over, Mox is still taking on all comers, and up next for him is an eliminator match with ROH World TV Champion Nick Wayne. Wayne has been on a roll lately in ROH. Does he have what it takes to defeat Jon Moxley and earn a future Continental title shot?

The new AEW World Trios Champions will also have an eliminator match. The Conglomeration's Orange Cassidy, Roderick Strong, and Kyle O'Reilly are jumping right into the action after winning the Trios titles from The Dogs last Sunday at Dynasty. Tonight, The Lethal Twist hopes to earn a Trios title opportunity and give The Conglomeration their first loss since becoming champions. Can they pull off a shocking upset win?

Fast paced action

The Young Bucks are still climbing back to the AEW World Tag Team Championships, and after winning against Kazuchika Okada and Konosuke Takeshita, they're on the right track. Tonight, they'll try to secure another big win when they face their friends, The Rascalz, who've been building a strong reputation in AEW in their own right. Which team will walk out of Everett as the winners?

For only the second time in AEW, Pac and Lio Rush will collide in a singles match. Pac won their first match but he wasn't up against the haunting new version of Lio Rush when they originally clashed in July 2024. Will Rush's new attitude power him to victory, or does Pac still have his number?

Also on Collision

Adam Copeland and Christian Cage fell short against FTR at AEW Dynasty.

Adam Copeland will speak following his and Christian Cage's violent loss to FTR at Dynasty. With the new decree from FTR stating that Cope & Cage can't challenge for the AEW World Tag Team Championships while FTR are the champions, it remains to be seen what Copeland will have to say about what the future holds for him and Christian Cage as a tag team.

Kris Statlander and Hikaru Shida were victorious last week in their first match as a tag team, so tonight the former AEW Women's World Champions will join forces once again. Will the tense alliance of AEW originals continue to produce success? Also, Brody King will fill in for Bandido when he teams with Mascara Dorada and Místico in trios action.
