A special Thursday night edition of AEW Collision has four matches confirmed for it currently, including the latest chapter in a long-standing women’s division rivalry.

Willow Nightingale and Kris Statlander will meet in a singles match on Thursday evening’s card from the Masonic Temple Theatre in Detroit, Michigan, as confirmed on this week’s episode of Dynamite.

Nightingale, who has won in two of their five past one-on-one AEW confrontations, challenged Statlander to a singles bout during a backstage segment this week.

Statlander and Nightingale haven’t faced off in singles competition since All Out 2024, when Statlander won in a Chicago Street Fight match.

Also on the card, Daniel Garcia is expecting to face one half of FTR in a singles bout.

Garcia saw FTR turn against him in recent weeks, attacking him on a mid-April episode of Collision and, in his words, attempting to break his neck. He’s been demanding answers from them since, and hopes to get some soon in the form of a fight.

FTR answered Garcia’s challenge on Wednesday’s Dynamite, confirming that they’ll face off as part of Collision.

Thursday’s show also includes a second-ever meeting between Dralistico and Mike Bailey, as well as a one-on-one clash between Anthony Bowens and Lee Johnson.

It’s worth noting that this week’s Collision will air on TBS, not its usual main channel, TNT. Here’s everything we’re expecting for tomorrow’s show:

  • Anthony Bowens vs. Lee Johnson
  • Willow Nightingale vs. Kris Statlander
  • Daniel Garcia vs. A Member of FTR
  • Dralistico vs. Mike Bailey
