AEW Collision Results (7/2/26): The Fallout From Forbidden Door Continues

AEW Collision results:
This week's episode of Collision kicked off with tag team action as PAC and Claudio Castagnoli of the Death Riders took on Shingo Takagi and Drilla Moloney of Unbound Co. The finish of the match saw the Death Riders pick up the win, with Castagnoli getting the pinfall victory on Takagi thanks to an assist from Daniel Garcia.
Lexy Nair is backstage with the Conglomeration. O'Reilly revealed that due to the injuries Mark Briscoe suffered on Dynamite, they don't know when we'll see him again. Cassidy said the same goes for Tomohiro Ishii, but tried to look on the bright side that Willow Nightingale would be back soon. The question of Lio Rush joining the group was brought up, and Roderick Strong didn't rule it out. Konosuke Takeshita came in, and it was certainly implied that he was officially a member of the group.

Back in the ring, Andrade El Idolo got a measure of revenge for being attacked from behind on Dynamite by picking up a big win over Brian Cage of the Don Callis Family. After the match, Andrade cut a quick promo, making it clear he's far from done with getting revenge on the Don Callis Family.
We get a video package narrated by Gabe Kidd talking about the history between Jay White and David Finlay, detailing what went down between those two men in New Japan Pro-Wrestling.

An interesting new women's tag team forms in AEW
Thunder Rosa and Mina Shirakawa were successful in tag team action in a showcase match against Zara Zakher and B3CCA. After Rosa and Olympia failed to win the Tag Titles from Divine Dominion at Forbidden Door, it will be interesting to see if this is a new combination moving forward.
Thekla comes out on the stage in the Starlight Kid mask she stole at the pay-per-view and cuts a promo stating she did exactly what she promised she would do at Forbidden Door. Thekla declares that after defeating Starlight Kid, STARDOM is dead.

The Bang Bang Gang have a lot of enemies
After the match, The Dogs come out on the stage to distract the Bang Bang Gang so the Death Riders can attack them from behind. Both the Dogs and the Death Riders leave the Bang Bang Gang and Adam Copeland lying.
We get a video package from Willow Nightingale, teasing that her return to AEW is imminent.
“With everything I’ve done, I’m still not the best. But this year I can prove it, and I will.”

In the main event of the evening, Kyle Fletcher defeated ELP, gaining momentum for his International Championship match with Konosuke Takeshita this Wednesday on Dynamite.
After the match, Don Callis cut a promo on Konosuke Takeshita. Callis said they are going to teach him a lesson on Dynamite and take everything from him, beginning with the International Championship. Takeshita comes out to confront Callis, but he runs away before Takeshita can make it to the ring. Takeshita stares down Callis as Collision goes off the air.
.@TheDonCallis gives the world a "history lesson" on AEW International Champion Konosuke Takeshita, but the champion isn't going to sit idly by and listen!
