AEW Collision (Episode 155)
Detroit, Michigan, at the Masonic Temple Theater
Simulcast on July 30, 2026, on TBS and HBO Max
[Hour One] Tony Schiavone, Nigel McGuinness, and Paul Wight were on commentary. The big screen listed that All In London is 31 days away…
“The Motor City Machine Guns” Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin made their entrance to a big ovation while ring announcer Arkady Aura introduced them. The fans chanted “Motor City” long enough that Shelley acted like he was looking at a wristwatch.
Sabin asked the fans if they really thought they wouldn’t be there. Sabin said there was no place they’d rather be than in the greatest city in modern civilization, the city they’ve loved and represented for 20 years. “Because this, right here, is where the best wrestle,” Sabin said. An “AEW” chant followed.
“Detroit, in more ways than one, we are home,” Shelley said. The fans responded with a “welcome home” chant. Shelley said it is their immense pleasure to finally say that the Motor City Machine Guns are All Elite. A graphic on the screen listed the Guns as being All Elite…
Powell’s POV: AEW picked up where they left off with last night’s hot Dynamite by opening Collision with a big debut. Detroit was obviously the perfect place to debut the duo. I’m still baffled by WWE giving Shelley and Sabin a run with the tag team titles right out of the gate, only to waste them for the majority of their run. This is definitely a case of WWE’s loss being AEW’s gain. It’s also nice to see the red hot Detroit crowd rewarded. By the way, I’ll be covering tonight’s live TNA Impact on delay once Collision ends, so stick around
The broadcast team checked in from their desk on the stage. Schiavone hyped a major announcement for All In… Entrances for the opening match took place…
1. “The Demand” Ricochet, Toa Liona, and Bishop Kaun vs. “The Rascalz” Dezmond Xavier, Zachary Wentz, and Myron Reed for the AEW Trios Titles. The entrances of both teams were televised. Ricochet performed an early flip dive onto Xavier and Reed on the floor. The Rascalz were in offensive control before a picture-in-picture break. [C]
