AEW Collision Preview: April 11, 2026 – Okada vs. Reed for International Championship, JetSpeed & Místico vs. The Dogs for Trios Titles, More

It’s the final AEW Collision before AEW Dynasty, and it’s coming your way TONIGHT at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT on TNT and streaming on HBO Max. As if the weekend wasn’t big enough with Dynasty in Vancouver tomorrow night, we’ll see two championship matches tonight and much more as part of a star-studded card in Edmonton!

AEW International Champion “The Rainmaker” Kazuchika Okada has a busy weekend ahead of him, and it starts on Collision with an AEW International Title defense against Myron Reed of The Rascalz. 

The Dogs want the AEW World Trios Titles and threw down the challenge, so tonight, they’ll get their chance against AEW World Trios Champions JetSpeed and Místico. 

AEW Women’s World Champion “The Toxic Spider” Thekla will team with Marina Shafir of the Death Riders against their respective opponents at Dynasty, Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor of the Brawling Birds.

The Don Callis Family will send CMLL World Heavyweight Champion Hechicero and El Clon into battle against the Young Bucks, Matt and Nick Jackson, one night before the Bucks face Kazuchika Okada and Konosuke Takeshita at Dynasty.

The #2 spot in the Casino Gauntlet at Dynasty for the vacant TNT Title is up for grabs when RUSH takes on Anthony Bowens. Who will join #1 entrant Tommaso Ciampa to begin the Casino Gauntlet tomorrow night?

Plus, The Hurt Syndicate, Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin, return to the ring as a unit for the first time since last year, and former AEW Women’s World Champions Kris Statlander and Hikaru Shida will be in tag team action.

What else will go down on the final stop before Dynasty tomorrow night in Vancouver? Here’s your complete AEW Collision preview for April 11, 2026.

AEW Collision Matches, Preview for Saturday, April 11

AEW International Championship Match: “The Rainmaker” Kazuchika Okada of the Don Callis Family (c) vs. Myron Reed of The Rascalz

After winning his singles debut on Collision against Johnny TV two weeks ago, Reed got the better of Okada last week on Collision and had him reeling once again during a chaotic brawl on Dynamite that also put a spotlight on the issues between Okada and Konosuke Takeshita. 

Those two will begrudgingly team tomorrow at Dynasty against the Young Bucks with the understanding that Takeshita will then face Okada for the AEW International Championship at AEW Double or Nothing. However, Okada needs to worry about Reed first, or the upset-minded Razcal could walk away with his first piece of AEW gold!

AEW World Trios Championship Match: JetSpeed (“The Jet” Kevin Knight and “Speedball” Mike Bailey) & Místico (c) vs. The Dogs (Gabe Kidd, David Finlay and Clark Connors)

In last week’s Collision main event, Knight and Mísitico teamed with The Conglomeration’s Orange Cassidy and Roderick Strong to defeat Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, Connors and Finlay. However, on Dynamite, it was Connors, Finlay and a returning Gabe Kidd who laid out Cassidy and Strong before throwing down the challenge for the AEW World Trios Titles. Can The Dogs take the gold from JetSpeed and Místico?

AEW Women’s World Champion “The Toxic Spider” Thekla & Marina Shafir vs. Brawling Birds (Alex Windsor and Jamie Hayter)

This match will not be for the faint of heart! In what has to be one of the most dangerous combinations in AEW history, AEW Women’s World Champion Thekla comes together with Marina Shafir to take on the Brawling Birds, who are more than game for a fight on any given night. 

At Dynasty, Hayter looks to regain the AEW Women’s World Championship for the first time in three years when she challenges Thekla. And on Dynasty Zero Hour, Shafir and Windsor will go one-on-one to continue the hostilities that escalated on Dynamite. Tonight, we’ll get a preview of two matches going down in Vancouver in a tag team fight that could and should get ugly!

Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) vs. El Clon & CMLL World Heavyweight Champion Hechicero of the Don Callis Family

Don Callis was forced to pivot from his plans to put Kyle Fletcher together with Kazuchika Okada to form ProtOkada against the Young Bucks at Dynasty when Fletcher was injured, so instead, the Bucks will face Okada and Konosuke Takeshita, who are none too thrilled about tagging together. Before that, Matt and Nick Jackson will face another Callis Family combo, El Clon and CMLL World Heavyweight Champion Hechicero, tonight in Edmonton! 

For the #2 Spot in the Casino Gauntlet at AEW Dynasty: RUSH vs. Anthony Bowens

Opportunities can be presented when you least expect them in AEW, and those opportunities can change career trajectories in an instant. Two men who are always looking to make an impression, RUSH and Anthony Bowens, have found themselves with just such a golden chance this weekend. They will go one-on-one tonight for the #2 spot in the Casino Gauntlet at Dynasty, which will determine the NEW TNT Champion after Kyle Fletcher was forced to vacate the title due to injury. 

With Tommaso Ciampa waiting for the winner with the #1 spot already secured, will it be RUSH or Bowens who joins him at #2?

The Hurt Syndicate in Action

Last week on Collision, The Hurt Syndicate made a surprise appearance, as MVP, Shelton Benjamin and a fully healthy and cleared Bobby Lashley made it known they were back in business and looking for new talent. Tonight, former AEW World Tag Team Champions Benjamin and Lashley return to action as a unit for the first time in six months!

Kris Statlander & Hikaru Shida in Action

After this week’s Dynamite, Shida recounted her history with Statlander, which goes back to the beginning of AEW, and proposed that they tag together, “just like old times,” on Collision. We’ll see this pair of former AEW Women’s World Champions in tag team action tonight!
