Expect plenty of brutality as the Death Riders and La Facci\u00f3n Ingobernable are in action across three matches.<\/p>\n<p>If Jay Lethal, Adam Priest, and Tommy Billington appear easy pickings for the Death Riders, you have a short memory. Priest and Billington have, in previous weeks, brought the fight to FTR. Former ROH World Champion, Lethal, can be underestimated, but has never been a tomato can.<\/p>\n<p>The ROH World Tag Team Champions are likely going to massacre some locals. With Dralistico going one-on-one with the Mad King, Eddie Kingston could be an interesting setup for the latter\u2019s first return feud. Seeing two of AEW\u2019s most angry, vicious, and unstable men, Kingston and Rush, colliding would be literally blistering.<\/p>\n<p>Who is Kevin Knight going to face? In theory, Knight could be taking on Dax Harwood, Cash Wheeler, or Stokely Hathaway. Either option offers a clash of styles fitting for the Saturday action-oriented show. Yet there\u2019s going to be some interesting verbiage exchanged elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, this week it&#8217;s seven o&#8217;clock if you want to rock.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>AEW Collision Matches Announced<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, and Daniel Garcia) vs. Jay Lethal, Adam Priest, and Tommy Billington<\/li>\n<li>Eddie Kingston vs. Dralistico<\/li>\n<li>ROH World Tag Team Champions, Sammy Guevara and Rush, in action<\/li>\n<li>Kevin Knight vs. a member of FTR<\/li>\n<li>The Don Callis Family (Hechicero, Rocky Romero, and Lance Archer) vs. Paragon and Orange Cassidy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>AEW Collision Segments Announce<\/strong><strong>d<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Kris Statlander and Toni Storm face-to-face<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>The Don Callis Family Saga <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Callis is collecting wrestlers like Pok\u00e9mon. His family continues to entertain and grow to bursting point, and fans are into it. When it comes to multi-man bangers, there are so many fun combinations. Saturday, we get technical lucha with Hechicero, fusion with Rocky Romero, and brute force with Lance Archer.<\/p>\n<p>They face off against a tag team and a recently returned big name with plenty of reasons to hate the family. Paragon has been battling the Family for a while now. Cracks between Roderick Strong and Kyle O\u2019Reilly are not as apparent right now. However, O\u2019Reilly is teaming with another Conglomeration partner in Orange Cassidy. We\u2019ll see if these threads are revisited.<\/p>\n<p>Cassidy\u2019s issue with the Family has just begun. After destroying a priceless and no doubt very tasteful piece of Callis art and failing to win the TNT Championship, it\u2019s a hot start. Yet the Family has expanded, and they have numbers on their side.<\/p>\n<p>Could we see the newest members, Andrade el Idolo and Hologram\u2019s corrupted foil, El Clon, who cost Cassidy the TNT Championship, get involved?<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_143136\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-143136\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-143136 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/22-3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"A graphic for the AEW Collision preview for October 4, 2025.\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/22-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/22-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/22-3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/22-3-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/22-3.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-143136\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: AEW<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong>AEW Women\u2019s World Championship Face-to-face <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Throughout her match on Dynamite, \u201cTimeless\u201d Toni Storm was not bursting with confidence and certainty. Although she scored the victory, a lack of direction and vulnerability were evident before she asked, \u201cWho the bloody hell I am?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Even when Storm threw the first punch at the end of Dynamite, there seemed to be some spirit lacking. Without the AEW Women\u2019s World Championship, Storm is yet again having an identity crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Contrasted with Kris Statlander, the woman who took her championship at All Out, the former alien seems confident in herself. There are no doubts. It has taken her years to hold the gold. Finally, it\u2019s Statlander\u2019s time.<\/p>\n<p>Although they have shared the microphone before, this is their first face-to-face encounter without any other opponents or partners. Will Wednesday\u2019s brawl have given Storm the confidence to dress down Statlander verbally? A woman, the former champion, clearly admires.
