AEW Collision took place on October 24, 2026, from the LJVM Coliseum in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, with the latest chapter of the Best-of-Five Series between FTR and the Motor City Machine Guns serving as the night’s featured contest.

After Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin opened the series with a victory in the first match, Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler answered in Match Two. FTR defeated the Motor City Machine Guns to bring the series level at 1-1, ensuring that neither team leaves the early portion of this rivalry with a decisive advantage.

The show also featured a significant development involving Jay White, the Bang Bang Gang, and The Dogs. White addressed Jon Moxley, announced a new identity for his side, and was subsequently confronted by Kyle O’Reilly. Elsewhere, the Death Riders scored a win in an eight-person match, while Josh Alexander defeated Blade Brown.

FTR tie the Best-of-Five Series at 1-1

The collision between FTR and the Motor City Machine Guns carried major importance before the opening bell. Shelley and Sabin held the 1-0 lead in the Best-of-Five Series, placing Harwood and Wheeler in the position of needing a win to avoid falling into a difficult two-match deficit.

FTR delivered in Match Two. Accompanied by Big Stoke, Harwood and Wheeler defeated Shelley and Sabin to even the score at one victory each. The result keeps the series fully open and immediately raises the stakes for Match Three.

Both teams enter the series with deep reputations as elite tag team specialists. FTR have long defined themselves through rugged, methodical tag wrestling and a willingness to turn major bouts into tests of endurance. The Motor City Machine Guns bring their own extensive history, pairing Shelley’s calculated approach with Sabin’s experience and high-level timing. With each side now holding a win, the Best-of-Five format has become a true race to three rather than a chase from behind.

The first two matches have also established that this will not be settled quickly. A 1-1 split means the rivalry is guaranteed to continue beyond its initial two meetings. The next match will determine which team gains the crucial 2-1 edge, while the losing side will face the possibility of elimination in the bout that follows.

Best-of-Five Series standings: FTR 1, Motor City Machine Guns 1.

Jay White announces The Last Outfit

Jay White, the Bang Bang Gang, and The Dogs appeared during the first hour of Collision for a promo that reshaped the group’s presentation. White called out Jon Moxley and revealed that the collective will now be known as The Last Outfit.

The announcement places White’s group directly in opposition to Moxley and his allies at a time when conflict around the Death Riders remains a major part of AEW programming. White’s decision to publicly address Moxley made the intended target clear, while the new name gives his side a defined banner heading into the next stage of the confrontation.

Kyle O’Reilly then called out White for later in the night. The exchange added another point of tension to White’s Collision appearance, with O’Reilly making it clear that White would not be able to focus exclusively on Moxley and the Death Riders without attracting attention from elsewhere on the roster.

The available results confirm White’s promo and O’Reilly’s callout, but do not list a match result or a further in-ring confrontation between the two for this episode. What is certain is that White’s new group identity and his challenge toward Moxley were among the night’s central storyline developments.

Death Riders defeat STP

Jon Moxley joined Claudio Castagnoli, Daniel Garcia, and Marina Shafir in a victory over Shane Taylor Promotions. The Death Riders defeated Shane Taylor, Carlie Bravo, Shawn Dean, and Trish Adora in the eight-person tag team match.

The result gave Moxley’s side a significant win on the same night that Jay White publicly called him out. Castagnoli, Garcia, and Shafir stood alongside Moxley against a formidable STP lineup led by Taylor, and the Death Riders emerged victorious.

Shane Taylor Promotions brought together Taylor, Bravo, Dean, and Adora for the contest, but they were unable to halt the momentum of the Death Riders. With Moxley involved in both the match result and White’s earlier promo, Collision kept attention fixed on the increasingly crowded situation surrounding the Death Riders.

The win also gives Moxley’s group an important on-screen response to the challenge coming from White’s newly named Last Outfit. While no direct physical clash between Moxley and White was listed among the night’s confirmed results, both sides made their presence felt through the course of the broadcast.

Josh Alexander earns win over Blade Brown

Josh Alexander defeated Blade Brown during the second hour of Collision. The victory added another singles win for Alexander, who continued to establish himself through direct in-ring competition.

The result itself was straightforward: Alexander overcame Brown. With no additional stipulation or post-match angle listed, the key takeaway is that Alexander left Winston-Salem with his hand raised after the second-hour bout.

Collision’s second hour also maintained a balance between ongoing major programs and singles competition. While the FTR-Motor City Machine Guns series and the Moxley-White issue drove much of the show’s larger conversation, Alexander’s victory ensured there was still room for another established competitor to build momentum.

Other announced Collision action

Myron Reed versus Swerve Strickland was listed for the October 24 edition of Collision. Divine Dominion’s Megan Bayne and Lena Kross were also scheduled to face Wrathlander’s Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron.

However, the confirmed results available from the event do not provide outcomes for either Reed versus Strickland or Divine Dominion versus Wrathlander. As a result, no winner is listed here for those bouts.

Will Ospreay also delivered a promo previewing Blood & Guts. The appearance kept one of AEW’s looming major attractions in focus, though no additional match announcement or result connected to Ospreay’s segment was included among the confirmed details.

AEW Collision results for October 24, 2026

What stood out from Winston-Salem

The clearest competitive development from Collision was FTR’s ability to level the Best-of-Five Series. Shelley and Sabin’s Match One win had given the Motor City Machine Guns early control, but Harwood and Wheeler prevented the Guns from building a potentially commanding lead. The series now effectively starts anew, with three wins still required for either side to claim the overall rivalry.

Outside the ring, Jay White’s declaration introduced a major new label in AEW: The Last Outfit. By pairing that announcement with a direct callout of Jon Moxley, White made clear that the group’s new identity is connected to an escalating conflict with the Death Riders. Moxley’s team winning later in the show only adds to the competitive pressure around that issue.

Collision closed the night’s major results with several programs moving forward at once. FTR and the Motor City Machine Guns are deadlocked. White has a new banner and a familiar target. Moxley’s side remains victorious in multi-person action. And with Blood & Guts receiving attention from Will Ospreay, AEW’s bigger battles continue to take shape.
