Tonight's episode of AEW Dynamite (September 23, 2026) and AEW Collision emanates from Fishers Event Center in Fishers, Indiana and will air starting at 8 p.m. ET on TBS and HBO Max.
It's Wednesday, and you know what that means - results, match winners, promo segment notes and other major developments from All Elite Wrestling will be added below as Dynamite airs. Dynamite is the first portion of a special three-hour AEW television block, with Collision following at 10 p.m. ET ahead of All Out.
Preview & Predictions for AEW Dynamite/Collision:
On tap for tonight's All Out go-home episode, AEW World Trios Champions Swerve Strickland and The New Level defend against The Demand. The winners will advance to defend the championship against Hangman Adam Page, Bandido and Brody King at All Out.
The trios titles have seen a lot of activity with title changes lately, including The Demand winning them from The Conglomeration just to drop them to Hangman and Brodido, who lasted not all that long before Swerve and The New Level won them at All In. Unless Tony Khan is particularly fond of playing hot potato with these three belts lately and is hyper-fixated on it, I doubt the belts go back to The Demand here. Why do a title change to go back to the match that had happened over a month ago and bypass the more important and more interesting match with Kofi and Austin Creed involved? I see no logic there, so I'm going with the trios champs retaining their titles.
Persephone will also defend the TBS Championship against Hyan, who signed the open contract after Maya World was sidelined by injury. I don't see any reason for Hyan to pull off the upset here. Persephone only recently won the title at All In and this is just her second defense, so I'm expecting her to retain.
Will Ospreay teams with "Speedball" Mike Bailey against Claudio Castagnoli and Gabe Kidd of the Death Riders. With Ospreay defending the AEW World Championship against Jon Moxley at All Out, this should tie directly into that story one way or another. I'm leaning toward Ospreay and Bailey winning, particularly with all the tension surrounding Moxley and the rest of the Death Riders lately.
Moxley himself will face Dezmond Xavier in an AEW Continental Championship Eliminator match. There isn't much mystery to my prediction here. Moxley is challenging for the world title in three days, so Xavier beating him to earn a future Continental title shot would make very little sense. Moxley wins.
Renee Paquette will also host a face-to-face between AEW Women's World Tag Team Champions The Brawling Birds and Divine Dominion ahead of their Chicago Street Fight at All Out. I'm assuming that won't remain a peaceful interview for particularly long.
As this will be the go-home show prior to All Out, I'd still expect some additional crossover involving the other matches on Saturday's card. The TLC tag teams could easily get involved somewhere, Tommaso Ciampa and Kazuchika Okada still have their International Championship match to promote, and there are plenty of other loose ends AEW can use these three hours to address.
