Since his return, it\u2019s noticeable, not just with absences. Omega\u2019s persistence and will to continue are to be admired. As seen at <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/07\/11\/match-point-kenny-omega-vs-kazuchika-okada-v-aew-all-in-texas\/\" target=\"_self\">All In Texas against Okada<\/a>, Omega is adapting to a new stage of his career. Reality adds more drama to Omega\u2019s role in AEW.<\/p>\n<p>When the Cleaner returns on Wednesday, don\u2019t expect the Don Callis Family to give Omega space. What has Omega got to say about Josh Alexander? Alexander has taken out two of Omega\u2019s closest friends in Kota Ibushi and Michael Nakazawa. On the weekend, he teams with former best friends and Elite members, The Young Bucks. Are Matt and Nick Jackson going to stand back and watch? Or will Kenny Omega be prepared for the numbers?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Hangman Continues the Hunt <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Ahead of their steel cage match, the AEW Men\u2019s World champion continues his hunt. Hangman Adam Page has one more member of The Opps to eliminate ahead of Full Gear before he can isolate Samoa Joe. Wednesday night, Page takes on Katsuyori Shibata in what\u2019s likely to be a stiff and hard-hitting affair.<\/p>\n<p>This could be a western-style showdown between two wrestlers who are unafraid of bludgeoning heads and tearing skin. The NJPW legend, alongside Samoa Joe and Powerhouse Hobbs, has looked dangerous, but on Wednesday, he is without back-up.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond a victory, you have to imagine Page is looking to take Shibata out of the equation.\u00a0 Given Page knocked Powerhouse Hobbs off a balcony, what\u2019s the Hangman got planned for Shibata? At the same time, Samoa Joe will surely have learned from last week\u2019s failed attack on Page. One big angle may follow.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>AEW Women\u2019s Division Dominant <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Last week, the women\u2019s Blood and Gut went beyond the promise. In very AEW fashion, they overachieved in the ring, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/25\/how-two-aew-blood-and-guts-matches-could-highlight-storyline-inequality\/\" target=\"_self\">compensating for the storyline inequities compared to the men\u2019s double cage match<\/a>. This week, we have three potential women\u2019s bangers: two AEW World Tag Team Champions Quarterfinals and an undisputed title match.<\/p>\n<p>Mercedes Mone won her 13<sup>th<\/sup> championship over the weekend. Yet the ROH World TV Championship she won at WrestleDream came with the prefix \u201cinterim\u201d. The injured champion, Red Velvet, returns and is ready to mix things up. Can Mone collect a 14<sup>th<\/sup> title and continue to <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/09\/12\/history-myth-and-realities-of-the-pro-wrestling-belt-collector-trope\/\" target=\"_self\">redefine the belt collector trope<\/a>? Or will Velvet be able to score an upset?<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, \u201cTimeless\u201d Toni Storm and Mina Shirakawa are looking past opponents Riho and Alex Windsor. The Timeless Love Bombs are already thinking about vengeance after the finale of Blood and Guts. Yet is this a mistake given their opponents&#8217; individual histories with upsetting the status quo? Maybe.<\/p>\n<p>TayJay may be the women\u2019s division&#8217;s longest serving tag team, yet against the newly formed team of Megan Bayne and Marina Shafir, can experience overcome power? Tay Melo thinks that she has the skills to take on Shafir because of her Brazilian jiu-jitsu background. Yet Anna Jay and Melo have never been able to defeat The Goddess. Although the outcome seems clear, this tournament\u2019s opening rounds have given us a few surprises. Why stop there?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>AEW Dynamite\/Collision Matches Announced<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_146333\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-146333\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-146333 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/11\/22-25-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"A graphic for the AEW Dynamite\/Collision show for November 19, 2025.\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/11\/22-25-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/11\/22-25-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/11\/22-25-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/11\/22-25-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/11\/22-25.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-146333\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: AEW<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li>Hangman Adam Page vs. Katsuyori Shibata<\/li>\n<li>Undisputed ROH Women\u2019s World TV Championship: Red Velvet vs. Mercedes Mone<\/li>\n<li>AEW Women\u2019s Tag Team Championship Quarterfinal: \u201cTimeless\u201d Toni Storm and Mina Shirakawa vs. Alex Windsor and Riho<\/li>\n<li>AEW Women\u2019s Tag Team Championship Quarterfinal: Tayjay vs. Megan Bayne and Marina Shafir<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Segments Announced<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Kenny Omega Returns<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><b>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><i>Header photo \u2013 AEW\u00a0\u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"1\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a> for more on AEW Dynamite\/Collision and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
