AEW Collision 5/8/2025
Toni Storm is here! She’ll never forget her first time. It was messy, sweaty, and painful, but she wanted more. Once a month. Once a week. Twice a week. She was hooked. Then it became more risky. One at a time. Two at a time. Three at a time. Random objects. All the while being watched by perverts. One day it will break her body and soil her soul, but in the end, she knows that’s what she was born to do. If you think she’s referring to sexual intercourse… GET YOUR MINDS OUT OF THE GUTTER. BECAUSE THE BEST BANG, IS NOTHING COMPARED TO FIGHTING FOR THE AEW WOMEN’S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!
Toni Storm is waiting for a Hater or a CEO, so spit on it, sit on it, and let’s get… TIMELESS.
Unbelievable work here.
Lexy Nair is here with The Paragon. Roddy says they’re disappointed, as he and Kyle are one of the best tag teams on the planet, but they didn’t think it would be this hard. Last week was a tough loss, but Cole says success lies ahead.
GYV are here, and they say that The Paragon have gone soft. Anytime Kyle and Roddy are ready, they’ll remind them what it’s like to fight for their spot.
Tony Schiavone and Nigel McGuinness are on commentary and here comes Ricochet!
Match #1. Ricochet vs. Angelico w/ Serpentico
Tornillo by Ricochet after some back and forth. Ricochet then throws a chair at poor Serpentico as we go to commercial break real early tonight. Ricochet goes up top and misses a 450, and the following charge. Back flip by Ricochet off of Angelico’s chest and a flying knee. Knee by Angelico. High angle Flatliner by Angelico! Both guys down. Abdominal stretch by Angelico as he slaps the bald on Ricochcet. Tequilla Sunrise by Angelico, trapping the far arm now, but Ricochet barely makes the ropes with his free foot. Stunner over the top by Ricochet and a springboard clothesline. Running Shooting Star Press gets two. Vertigo by Ricochet! Spirit Gun finishes this one.
Winner: Ricochet
Rating: **3/4. Angelico kind of looks like he moves in slow motion, but it works? I can’t explain it. There wasn’t much to this match but what we saw was fun.
Ricochet grabs the mic and says he welcomes the boos from the fans, because he sees what makes them cheer. Ricochet runs down all of the guys he’s defeated in AEW, all of their favorites. Legends. Speaking of legends, Zach Gowen is at ringside. Ricochet asks him if he doesn’t have a leg in the fight anymore? Ricochet shoves Gowen and then security steps in, but Ricochet disposes of them while talking to Gowen. Ricochet grabs a pair of scissors and cuts the other security guard’s man bun, prompting Zach Gowen to hit the ring and make the save. Ricochet kicks Gowen in the leg, and hits him with the Spirit Gun! Ricochet rips off Gowen’s prosthetic leg and carries it over his shoulder down the ramp!

Cutter for Rocky! Trent trips Fox up and Fletcher connects him with a big leg lariat. Big boot by Fox to Fletcher and a pair of cutters for Roppongi Vice! Fox goes up top but Archer catches him with a choke slam. Double underhook Fisherman’s Buster by Roppongi Vice, which they now call the Jackal Driver. One, two, three!
Winners: Don Callis Family
Rating: ***1/2. This was a blast. AR Fox is a modern-day Chris Kanyon, as he just innovates every time he’s out there. Feels like Bandido could have gotten a little bit more time, considering he’s the AEW champ and all. Match was fun, though.
The Gates of Agony here and… they want the microphone? Bryan Keith… Big Bill? You think you’re going to walk through the gates unscathed? Hell no, paradise has to be earned. We’re not doing this in a parking lot, we’re doing it right here and right now.
Here come Big Bill and Bryan Keith! It’s a fight and we’re brawling all over the ringside area. Clothesline by Toa to Keith. Big boot by Bill. Keith and Kaun go over the top and to the floor very hard. Toa throws Bill into the steel steps and prepares for the POUNCE, but Bill moves and Toa flies into the front row. Air Raid Crash by Kaun puts Keith through a table off the ramp Toa now spears Bill on the same tables across the ramp! Security is here and we’ve got to get things in order.
Video package for Megan Bayne and Anna Jay.

Wheeler Yuta is walking down the ringside area and Marina Shafir sneaks in the ring, choking Willow with a chain behind the referee’s back. Statlander rolls in and finishes this one with Staturday Night Special!
Winner: Kris Statlander
Rating: ***3/4. Man, this was excellent. Both women BROUGHT IT and you could tell they’re very familiar with each other. Hard-hitting business here.

Winner: No Contest
Rating: ***1/2. A million *s for Nigel’s involvement, but this was a great main event.
Final Thoughts: On paper, not a lot of star power on tonight’s show, if we’re being honest. Collision , historically, has less promos and less talking, and more wrestling. That’s what we saw tonight. Not the biggest of shows, but it was consistent throughout the show. Statlander and Willow delivered big time, as did Garcia and Dax in the main event. AEW has done an excellent job building to their special shows lately, whether it’s All In, Double or Nothing, or even Beach Break next week. Oh, and MORE NIGEL. 7.75/10.Â
