AEW has announced a fresh segment for this Saturday’s AEW Collision episode from the iconic 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, PA, intensifying the build-up to what promises to be an action-packed night. AEW President Tony Khan revealed on social media Thursday evening that TNT Champion Kyle Fletcher alongside Don Callis will deliver a live spoken segment on the September 6 broadcast of AEW Collision airing on TNT and HBO Max[4][1].

This announcement comes on the heels of a dramatic storyline development that unfolded on last Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite, where Kyle Fletcher teamed with The Young Bucks and Josh Alexander to defeat a star-studded faction, including Kenny Omega and Hangman Page. However, the night ended with a brutal post-match attack on Omega, signaling a possible hiatus for the AEW legend, who has since confirmed upcoming specialized hospital visits planned for a year. The segment featuring Fletcher and Callis is expected to advance this storyline, further heating tensions in the TNT Championship picture and beyond[1][4].

In addition to this new segment, AEW has updated the card with several high-profile matches at the 2300 Arena, continuing its renowned residency at this historic venue formerly known as the ECW Arena. The marquee bouts planned for Saturday include:

• Jon Moxley vs. Daniel Garcia: A highly anticipated singles match promising intense in-ring storytelling between two fiercely competitive athletes[1][2].

• Mark Briscoe vs. Konosuke Takeshita: Stemming from recent confrontations on AEW Dynamite, this match ups a veteran Briscoe against “The Alpha” Takeshita, representing the Don Callis Family. Notably, if Briscoe secures a victory, he will earn a TNT Championship opportunity against Kyle Fletcher, raising the stakes considerably[2][4].

• All-Star Eight-Woman Tag Team Match: AEW Women’s World Champion Toni Storm teams with Mina Shirakawa, Kris Statlander, and Harley Cameron to face Megan Bayne and the “Triangle of Madness” trio consisting of Thekla, Julia Hart, and Skye Blue. This star-studded women’s match highlights AEW’s deep roster and commitment to competitive women’s wrestling[2][3].

• FTR vs. Adam Priest & Mystery Partner: FTR (Cash Wheeler and Dax “The Axe” Harwood) continue their fierce run as one of AEW’s dominant tag teams. Their opponents include Adam Priest, who has frequently appeared in Ring of Honor and collided with FTR recently. The mystery partner adds an element of surprise and intrigue to this tag encounter[2][3].

According to a WWE insider familiar with the cross-company wrestling landscape, AEW’s booking at the 2300 Arena “reflects strategic storytelling and a nod to wrestling history,” especially leveraging the venue’s legacy while showcasing rising and established talent in meaningful matchups. Sources close to Tony Khan note that the Fletcher-Callis segment will “offer new layers to TNT title feuds and character dynamics,” potentially setting up major developments for AEW’s fall season[4].

This AEW Collision event marks a continuation of AEW’s expansion on TNT and HBO Max, with live week-to-week shows building toward the gigantic AEW All Out pay-per-view slated for September 20 in Toronto. With rising stars, veterans, and championship stakes all in play, Saturday’s Collision promises to deliver compelling sports entertainment drama and high-quality wrestling action that fans in Philadelphia and worldwide will eagerly anticipate[4][5].

For live coverage and in-depth analysis, wrestling fans should follow AEW Collision on TNT and HBO Max at 8/7c this Saturday from the historic 2300 Arena, where history intertwines with the present to shape AEW’s future. Keep an eye on further updates as this thrilling episode approaches, with the new Kyle Fletcher and Don Callis segment set to be a focal point of the night[1][4].
