AEW Collision – March 21, 2026: Half And Half
Collision
Date: March 21, 2026
Location: Save Mart Arena, Fresno, California
Commentators: Nigel McGuinness, Tony Schiavone
This weekend is a bit weird as Collision has been split into two shows due to coverage of the NCAA Tournament. Therefore, this week’s show is only an hour long, with the second half airing tomorrow night. The show even has the theme name of Slam Dunk Saturday, which could lead to some shenanigans. Let’s get to it.
Here is Dynamite if you need a recap.
TNT Title: Kyle Fletcher vs. Robbie Eagles
Eagles is challenging and he had a hand in training Fletcher to make this a bit more personal. Fletcher sends him face first into the mat to start and then takes him into the corner for a clean break. An abdominal stretch is blocked so Fletcher pulls the hair and slams him down. Back up and Eagles snaps off a headscissors before kicking away at the leg. Fletcher is able to plant him hard with a backbreaker and we take a break.
We come back with Eagles posing a lot before kicking away at the chest. A running kick to the chest sets up a some running knees in the corner but Fletcher blocks another attempt. Fletcher tries to pick him up, only to be reversed into Sliced Bread for two. Eagles misses his 450 though and a Michinoku Driver gives Fletcher two. Back up and Eagles kicks at the leg, including a missile dropkick to the leg.
Some kind of a leglock sends Fletcher to the ropes and out to the floor, with Eagles hitting a dive. Back in and Fletcher tries a superplex but the knee gives out, allowing Eagles to suplex him into the corner. A 450 onto the leg takes Fletcher down again and he gets planted with a poisonrana. Fletcher is right back up with the lawn dart into a running kick in the corner, followed by a brainbuster to retain the title at 12:12.
Rating: B. That ending was a bit questionable as Fletcher’s knee was really banged up and then he just does a bunch of stuff that needs a healthy leg. That being said, the rest of the match was quite good, as I’ve liked almost everything I’ve ever seen from Eagles. Fletcher is one of the few all but guaranteed good matches in AEW and that was the case again here with a very fun opener.
Jon Moxley warns Will Ospreay for wanting to break his neck. Pac wasn’t even here when Ospreay got hurt but he’s more than willing to fight Ospreay anytime.
La Faccion Ingobernable vs. Dom Kubrick/Lucas Riley/Alpha Zo
Dralistico takes Riley down to start and chops him into the corner. Rush comes in and hammers Riley into the corner before pulling Kubrick in sans tag. Kubrick is sent outside and taken out with a Dralistico dive. The Bull’s Horns set up Mortos’ corkscrew moonsault to give Rush the pin at 2:13.
Thekla laughs at the idea of Toni Storm being hurt and says she had everything to do with it. Storm saw what Thekla was doing and staged the attack to avoid having to fight her. Anyone else who is coming after her should stage their own death, because the real thing is so much worse. I don’t know what Thekla did to make these promos so much fun lately, but it should be repeated.
Brawling Birds vs. Sisters Of Sin
Hayter backs Hart up against the ropes to start and backbreakers her way out of an octopus attempt. The Sisters are sent into the corner for some chops before Blue and Windsor chop it out. Hart gets in a cheap shot from the apron though and Blue decks Hayter off the apron as we take a break. We come back with Hayterade missing and Hart hitting an Eat Defeat. Everything breaks down and all four are dropped for a double breather. Hart flip dives onto Hayter on the floor and Blue’s running knee gets two on Windsor. Blue powerbombs Windsor out of the corner, with Hayter having to make a save. Back up and Two Birds One Stone finishes Hart at 9:23.
Rating: B-. The Birds are starting to get somewhere and it’s kind of fascinating that they’re already pretty much at the top of the list of contenders. They’re a simple team who beats people up and are playing into the British brawler stereotype. It’s something that will work every time and it is working again here. On the other hand, it feels like the Sisters have been losing a lot lately and that needs to stop, at least for a bit.
Brody King thanks Kenny Omega for the save at Revolution but he’s ready for more of Swerve Strickland. For now though, he wants gold.

Komander/Mascara Dorada vs. Death Riders
It’s Claudio Castagnoli/Daniel Garcia for the Riders (with Marina Shafir) here. Garcia shoves Komander down to start and kicks at his head but makes the mistake of going after the mask. Komander scores with a dropkick and it’s off to Castagnoli, who gets kicked in the head a few times. Dorada’s slingshot dive to the floor is cut off and he gets dropped onto the announcers’ table. Garcia adds a running knee and we take a break.
We come back with Komander getting pummeled in the corner but Castagnoli misses a charge. Komander facebusters him and dives over for the tag to Dorada, who gets to take Garcia down. Dorada and Komander both walk the ropes at the same time, setting up stereo moonsaults to the floor. Back in and an electric chair faceplant into a standing moonsault gets two, with Castagnoli making a save. Komander’s very springboardy hurricanrana (complete with a pause so Dorada can dive onto Garcia) gets two on Castagnoli, who is right back with the Swing. The Neutralizer finishes Komander at 12:50.
Rating: B-. Komander and Dorada work well together as the random luchador team so it was nice to see them getting a chance here. At the same time, this felt like one of the more random Death Riders combinations, as it isn’t like Castagnoli and Garcia team together very often. Nice enough main event though, especially for a show that didn’t feel important.
Overall Rating: B. As usual, it was a good show bu tit was absolutely not a show that you needed to see. Pretty much nothing was advanced here, but at the same time, it was airing around midnight on a Saturday night so why bother wasting big moments? It’s just an hour long and had good action, which is a nice enough way to see this show, though I can’t imagine many people did.
