All Elite Wrestling remains in Jacksonville, Florida for this Saturday\u2019s AEW Collision. Six matches have been announced for this special Homecoming edition from AEW\u2019s home, Jacksonville, Florida.<\/p>\n

Kota Ibushi returns to take on Josh Alexander. Ibushi will seek retribution on behalf of his Golden Lovers tag team partner, Kenny Omega, after The Don Callis Family again targeted and took the Best Bout Machine out of action. Ibushi\u2019s form this year has been reflective of the man\u2019s legendary status. This could be a fluid and intoxicating match against the always sharp and ready Josh Alexander.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Eddie Kingston takes on The Beast Mortos. After dealing with Drastlico, it seems the potential clash I predicted last week<\/a> between The Mad King and Rush\u2019s unstable brutality is imminent. Unlike Drastlico, Kingston is going to find Mortos a dynamic heavyweight, capable of taking Kingston\u2019s strong-style-inspired punishment with zeal. Let the bulls fight!<\/p>\n

Once again, Max Caster and Anthony Bowens find themselves reluctantly teaming. Answering the challenge of Big Bill and Bryan Keith, will the former Acclaimed teammates find some more common ground? Or will Bowens finally explode?<\/p>\n

The women also share half of the card this week. Let\u2019s look more closely at the two big trios matches.<\/p>\n

Saturday night’s alright for fighting.<\/p>\n

Mixed Trios Action<\/strong><\/h2>\n

FTR\u2019s list of enemies remains long, but it got slightly longer after piledriving Beth Copeland at All Out. When Willow Nightingale, following Copeland\u2019s example, stood up to bullying men like them several Dynamite\u2019s ago, I wondered if Nightingale would get her hands once again on Big Stoke in trios action. Instead, FTR gained a female equaliser on the previous Collision. Megan Bayne attacked Nightingale after Dax Harwood defeated Kevin Knight.<\/p>\n

Removing the potential comedy for a straight-up vicious fight will test Nightingale. Megan Bayne has only been pinned by \u201cTimeless\u201d Toni Storm and her very big package. Although Nightingale has been able to match the Greek Goddess’s power before, with FTR as Bayne\u2019s partners, this isn\u2019t going to be a fair fight.<\/p>\n

FTR defeated JetSpeed in the AEW World Tag Team Eliminator tournament with some crutch manoeuvring. The duo of Kevin Knight and Speedball Mike Bailey is an underdog.\u00a0 Yet, in Daily’s Place, with the crowd behind them, the faces could steal it.<\/p>\n

Women\u2019s Trios Action<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A trio of witches takes on three of AEW\u2019s “most sapphic-driven b*tches.” Disrupting the face-to-face (floor-to-floor) meeting of new AEW Women\u2019s World Champion, Kris Statlander, with the former world champion, \u201cTimeless\u201d Toni Storm, The Triangle of Madness had a point to prove for Thekla. The Toxic Spider was not beaten by either woman at All Out. The Austrian native is not done with either woman.<\/p>\n

Joining Statlander and Storm is another queen of innuendo, Harley Cameron. The character work in this match will be off-the-charts, with more breadcrumbs and build to WrestleDream and perhaps Blood and Guts. Don\u2019t sleep on the action, as the unit of Skye Blue, Julia Hart, and Thekla are going to give the face team a difficult night. Could Thekla somehow insert herself into the AEW Women\u2019s Championship match at WrestleDream?<\/p>\n
