AEW Collision airs live tonight from Chris Jericho's Rock N' Wrestling Rager at Sea aboard the Norwegian Jewel in Miami. AEW's official preview and Fightful's how-to-watch card both list an 8 p.m. ET start on TNT and HBO Max. Pro wrestling is scripted entertainment, so this is a preview of what's booked, not a sports bet.
Announced matches (AEW / Fightful / ProWrestling.net)
As of Saturday midday ET, all three outlets print the same four bouts:
- AEW National Championship: Andrade El Ídolo (c) vs. Tommaso Ciampa. AEW bills this as a rematch from WrestleDream and notes that an eighth successful defense would tie the National Championship defense record. Ciampa attacked Andrade after their prior Collision meeting, per AEW.
- Best-of-Five Series, Match 4 (MCMG lead 2-1): Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin) vs. FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler). AEW says FTR targeted Shelley's knee after Match 3 on Dynamite; MCMG can clinch the series tonight, while FTR needs the win to force Match 5.
- Persephone vs. Mina Shirakawa. AEW frames Persephone's quick turnaround after Blood and Guts and her TBS title loss to Queen Aminata; Shirakawa is billed as Aminata's ally.
- Chris Jericho vs. Blake Christian. AEW and Fightful list the singles match on Jericho's cruise; AEW adds that Nick Wayne said on Dynamite he would be on board.
ProWrestling.net's lineup matches those four bouts and notes a TNT/HBO Max simulcast at 8 ET / 7 CT.
Full Gear week
AEW's preview reminds readers that Full Gear is one week out in Phoenix. Tonight's Collision is the Saturday TV show on the boat; we are not inventing any Full Gear card changes here.
