Collision’s first main event will feature the in-ring return of CM Punk and he will team up with FTR to take on Samoa Joe, Jay White, and Juice Robinson in a trios match.
The match was announced by AEW President Tony Khan last night on Dynamite, his fourth Collision-related announcement in a row since the show was confirmed.
The show will take place from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois and it will serve as the perfect backdrop for Punk’s return, his first time on AEW TV since the All Out pay-per-view in September 2022.
Meanwhile, Khan also sang Punk’s praises in a story with Sports Illustrated, saying that he’s very important to All Elite Wrestling.
“To the fans, he’s very important. He’s very important to the company, too,” Khan said. “He’s been a big draw for us and historically throughout his career, and the launch of the new show happens to line up with the schedule on his rehab of his triceps injury.”
