AEW Collision is already being shaken up this weekend thanks to March Madness, but now Tony Khan has another issue to figure out—what music to use for Sunday’s special episode.

Speaking on the Battleground Podcast, Khan admitted he’s not sure if Elton John’s Saturday Night’s Alright for Fighting—the official theme song for Collision—makes sense for a show airing on Sunday.

“Great collaboration with Elton John though. I think Saturday Night’s Alright for Fighting—great for Collision. That’s a great wrestling theme, I think it’s an iconic wrestling theme now. But this week we’ve got a special Sunday show… and I gotta figure out the music, I’ll be honest, for Slam Dunk Sunday because this is the first time,” Khan explained.

He joked that some classic Sunday-themed songs wouldn’t exactly set the right tone for a wrestling show, saying, “Frankly, some of the Sunday songs aren’t as hard-hitting. Sunday Kind of Love? I don’t think that’s gonna work.”

Khan didn’t confirm whether he’d stick with Elton John’s hit for Sunday’s show, but fans can expect AEW Collision to air in two one-hour blocks this weekend—Saturday and Sunday at 11 PM EST—right after the NCAA Tournament.
