AEW Collision Preview for January 3, 2026: Confirmed Matches, Start Time and How to Watch

The January 3 episode of Collision is expected to be a great show from start to finish since it’s the first show of 2026. AEW has booked a solid card, ensuring fans will have a great time from start to finish.

Darby Allin vs. Wheeler Yuta

Darby Allin is focused on winning the AEW World Championship in 2026, but he still has unfinished business with The Death Riders. Before he can get to PAC, Wheeler Yuta has made it clear that Darby will have to get past him first. So, they’ll be squaring off against each other on Collision this week in singles competition.

Timeless Love Bombs (‘Timeless’ Toni Storm & Mina Shirakawa) vs. Maya World & Hyan

Maya World and Hyan were officially signed by AEW last week and they’re wasting no time trying to make an impact, as they will duke it out with Toni Storm & Mina Shirakawa in tag team action on Collision this week.
