The upcoming edition of AEW Collision, scheduled for January 24, 2026, will feature a change in venue due to a severe winter storm impacting much of the United States, including Texas. Originally planned to be live from Esports Stadium in Arlington, the event has been cancelled for safety reasons. Fans who purchased tickets will receive an email from AEW detailing how to claim refunds.
Despite the cancellation of the live show, AEW has confirmed that several matches were filmed in advance on January 21, 2026, following the AEW Dynamite broadcast in Orlando, Florida. The recorded segments will air as planned at their usual time of 20:00 ET (19:00 CT) on TBS and HBO Max.
Championship Matches Highlight the Show
Viewers can expect an exciting lineup of championship matches during this weekend’s broadcast. Notably, Claudio Castagnoli will defend his CMLL World Title against Roderick Strong. In another title match, Willow Nightingale will put her TBS Championship on the line against Julia Hart. Additionally, the reigning AEW Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander is set to compete against former WWE star Isla Dawn.
The show will also feature appearances from popular wrestlers such as “Hangman” Adam Page, Andrade, Kyle Fletcher, and Konosuke Takeshita. Fans can look forward to a blend of intense action and compelling storylines as AEW continues to engage its audience despite the weather-related changes.
Safety Comes First Amid Weather Warnings
The decision to cancel the live event was made in light of forecasts predicting hazardous driving conditions and power outages across Texas due to the winter storm. AEW is prioritizing the safety of both its audience and its talent.
