Three Titles on the Line and Hangman Returns on AEW Collision in Roanoke

AEW Collision is delivering a championship-loaded card on Saturday, July 11, as the show emanates from the Berglund Center in Roanoke, Virginia — and it will open with one of the more emotionally charged returns the company has had in some time.

“Hangman” Adam Page is back. The Virginia native has been absent from AEW for four months, last appearing at Revolution in March, where he lost a Texas Death Match to MJF and, with it, any future claim to the AEW World Championship. That career-altering stipulation now carries an added layer of significance: this past Wednesday at Dynamite Beach Break, Kenny Omega — who had agreed to the same stipulation — overcame it to beat MJF and become AEW World Champion. Page returns to his home state to open Collision, addressing for the first time publicly what that loss, and its aftermath, means for him going forward.

On the title front, Hikaru Shida makes the first defense of her newly won TBS Championship against Harley Cameron. Shida captured the title just last week on Dynamite by winning the inaugural AEW Survival of the Fittest match. Cameron earned her spot in that match with an upset win over Marina Shafir and now gets a direct shot at Shida, though she is 0-1 against “The Ace of TBS” in previous singles competition.

The AEW National Championship is also on the line as champion Mark Davis of the Don Callis Family defends against “Speedball” Mike Bailey. Davis has made five successful defenses and is one of the stable’s most dominant figures in 2026, but Bailey has beaten him before — less than four months ago on Dynamite — and issued the challenge at Beach Break looking to take gold from the Don Callis Family. A potential future challenger looms as well, with Andrade El Ídolo set to face Jake Doyle next week on Dynamite in a match that could set up another defense down the road.

Rounding out the title action, ROH World Champion Bandido steps back into competition just two days after successfully defending against Bryan Keith on ROH TV, this time facing Katsuyori Shibata of The Opps. HOOK issued the challenge on behalf of Shibata last week, pointing to Shibata’s 19-match win streak in ROH. The quick turnaround makes Bandido’s task considerably more difficult against a methodical opponent.

All of this comes with AEW Redemption in Montreal on July 26 on the horizon, meaning tonight’s results could carry real weight heading into one of the summer’s bigger pay-per-view events. Collision airs live at 8 p.m. ET on TNT and HBO Max.
