AEW Collision Live Coverage 8/30

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.’s coverage of “AEW Collision” on August 30, 2025, coming to you from the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania!

Tonight is the first ever “Collision” to emanate from the historic “ECW Arena”. Following their feud since their return at ALL IN, Juice Robinson will go one-on-one with Big Bill. Robinson defeated Bryan Keith two weeks ago. 

“Timeless” Toni Storm will be in action for the first time since retaining the Women’s Championship against Athena. She’ll team with Mina Shirakawa (who lost to Athena last night at “ROH” Death Before Dishonor), and Queen Aminata (who won her first round match in the Women’s Pure tournament). They’ll face off against Billie Starkz (who won her “Zero Hour” match last night) and Triangle of Madness’ Julia Hart & Skye Blue.
