AEW Collision Summer Blockbuster Results – June 13, 2026
Kenny Omega secured a decisive victory over Bad Dude Tito in the opening match of AEW Collision on June 13, 2026, at the Andrew J. Brady Music Center in Cincinnati. Following the win, Omega signaled his intent to challenge Zack Sabre Jr. before pursuing a title match against AEW World Champion MJF.
Key Match Results and Developments
In addition to the opening contest, the June 13 card featured several significant outcomes. Hikaru Shida defeated Zayda Steel in a Survival of the Fittest qualifying match, while The Rascalz picked up a victory over Aaron and Austin Atlas. Kevin Knight successfully defended his TNT Championship against Myron Reed, and Athena secured a submission win over Tiara James.
The main event saw The Death Riders—comprised of Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, PAC, Daniel Garcia, and Marina Shafir—defeat Shane Taylor Promotions in a chaotic Street Fight. The high-stakes brawl concluded with Moxley hitting a Paradigm Shift on his opponents into a pile of thumbtacks and glass.
Kenny Omega’s victory over Bad Dude Tito was secured using his signature move, the One Winged Angel, after he successfully countered Tito’s powerful offensive efforts.
The Path to Forbidden Door and Beyond
The event established several potential storylines for upcoming pay-per-view events. The Young Bucks suffered a loss to The Dogs (David Finlay and Clark Connors), a development that may lead to a future confrontation between The Dogs and the team of Cope and Cage at either AEW/NJPW Forbidden Door or AEW Redemption. Additionally, Thekla issued a challenge to Stardom’s Starlight Kid for a match at Forbidden Door, escalating tensions between the promotions.
The shifting alliances and direct challenges, such as Ricochet targeting Konosuke Takeshita for the AEW International Championship and the formation of the “Protokada” partnership between Kyle Fletcher, Mark Davis, and Okada, suggest a highly volatile period for AEW’s title hierarchy. These maneuvers indicate that the promotion is aggressively building toward the Forbidden Door event, with multiple challengers positioning themselves for marquee spots.
