Key Matches and Events Scheduled
The upcoming episode of AEW Collision, set to air on Saturday, October 25, 2025, at 8 p.m. ET on TNT, promises a series of high-stakes matches and significant story developments. The event was pre-recorded on October 22 at the Boeing Center at Tech Port in San Antonio, Texas, following the live broadcast of AEW Dynamite.
A highlight of the episode is an eight-man tag team match featuring a $400,000 prize. The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) and FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) will face off against Jurassic Express (Jack Perry and Luchasaurus) and JetSpeed (Mike Bailey and Kevin Knight). This match is notable not only for its financial stakes but also for the longstanding rivalries among the participants.
In addition to the tag team match, Thekla will compete against Mina Shirakawa in their first singles encounter in AEW. PAC will also take on Tomohiro Ishii in a historic first-time singles match, adding further intrigue to the card. Other matches include HOOK facing an undisclosed opponent and a promo segment featuring AEW World Champion Hangman Adam Page, who will address his ongoing feud with Samoa Joe.
Official Statements & Responses
Tony Khan, AEW President, expressed gratitude to the San Antonio crowd for their enthusiasm during the tapings. He hinted at the possibility of scheduling a future AEW pay-per-view event in the city, stating, “I will find a way to schedule a future AEW PPV event in San Antonio.” This reflects AEW's commitment to engaging with its fanbase and expanding its presence in various locations.
Criticism & Opposition
While the lineup features several talented wrestlers, some critics have noted that the episode may lack significant storyline progression. Observers have described the matches as primarily standalone events rather than integral parts of ongoing narratives. One commentary suggested that the eight-man tag match might feel like a typical "All Star 8-Man Tag" without substantial stakes beyond the monetary prize.
Conflicting Reports & Gaps
There are varying opinions regarding the anticipated impact of the matches. Some sources indicate that the episode may not be a must-see, while others highlight the potential for exciting moments and rivalries. The absence of matches related to the AEW Women's World Tag Team Championship tournament has also drawn attention, with some fans expressing disappointment over the lack of representation in this area.
