AEW President Tony Khan has officially revealed the identity of the mystery wrestler teaming with Adam Priest against FTR for this Saturday’s AEW Collision from the iconic 2300 Arena in Philadelphia. Fans have been buzzing since the match was announced, wondering who would join Priest to challenge the decorated tag team of Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler. The secret is out: Tommy Billington is back in AEW and will be stepping into the ring alongside Adam Priest on September 6[2][3][5].

Tommy Billington’s return is highly anticipated following his absence from AEW television since AEW All In 2024. His teaming with Priest sets the stage for a high-stakes tag team clash, intensifying the longstanding rivalry involving FTR and the Don Callis Family, which Priest is a key part of. The match was initially teased during this week’s AEW Dynamite broadcast when FTR’s attack on Jordan Oliver culminated in Adam Priest confronting the tag team backstage. Billington’s return to AEW television solidifies the storyline momentum, promising a fiercely competitive encounter at Collision[2].

The full lineup for AEW Collision on September 6 features several other compelling matches that add to the excitement of the show. Jon Moxley is set to face Daniel Garcia in what promises to be a hard-hitting singles contest. Mark Briscoe will square off against Konosuke Takeshita, with their bout stemming from an intense face-off on Dynamite that saw Briscoe issue a challenge to The Don Callis Family, Takeshita’s faction[1][3][5].

The women’s division is spotlighted with an All-Star eight-woman tag team match. “Timeless” Toni Storm, Mina Shirakawa, Kris Statlander, and Harley Cameron will team up to battle Megan Bayne and the Triangle of Madness trio — Thekla, Julia Hart, and Skye Blue[1][3][5].

According to sources close to AEW, the inclusion of Tommy Billington as Adam Priest’s partner was a strategic decision by Tony Khan to intensify the ongoing war with FTR while also giving Billington a high-profile return spot to re-establish his presence on AEW’s main programming. “Tony Khan wanted to make sure Billington’s return was impactful and that the storyline heat with FTR continued to build,” a WWE.com insider reported[2].

This edition of Collision will be broadcast live on TNT and HBO Max, starting at 8 p.m. ET, with fans across the country tuning in to see these high-profile matches unfold. The 2300 Arena, known as a historic wrestling venue in Philadelphia, will provide an electric atmosphere for this stacked card[1][5].

With the announcement of Billington’s role and the addition of multiple marquee matches, AEW Collision on September 6 has positioned itself as a must-watch event for wrestling enthusiasts. Fightful has announced they will offer live coverage and updates, ensuring fans don’t miss a moment of the action[2].
