Ricochet and AR Fox Set to Clash in High-Flying Showdown at AEW Collision

As the buzz builds for AEW Collision on July 17, 2025, fans are primed for an action-packed evening that promises thrilling clashes and intense rivalries in the heart of Chicago at the Byline Bank Aragon Ballroom. With a card loaded with anticipation, including a major singles match between high-flyers Ricochet and AR Fox, fans will be treated to a show that celebrates the spirit of pro wrestling. Other featured bouts include an eight-man tag team match featuring the Don Callis Family and a hard-hitting singles encounter between Katsuyori Shibata and Rush, elevating the stakes heading into this dynamic event.

Ricochet vs. AR Fox – Singles Match

Ricochet, known for his breathtaking aerial maneuvers, meets AR Fox, another spectacular high flyer whose agility and creativity have captivated audiences. Both men have a penchant for electrifying their opponents with mesmerizing displays of athleticism—this match could very well steal the show. Their previous encounters have seen both competitors push each other to their limits, and with Ricochet coming off a recent thrilling victory, defeating Mascara Dorada, the pressure is on AR Fox to even the score after his narrow loss against Mistico last week.

Introduced to the stage by recent results, Ricochet’s performance has showcased a blend of agility and striking power that could give him the edge. However, AR Fox is riding high on a wave of determination and resilience after being a fan-favorite competitor, and could capitalize on his underdog status. A victory for Ricochet positions him for a potential title shot, while a win for Fox could rejuvenate his standing in AEW's competitive roster.

Eight-Man Tag Team Match - Bandido, JetSpeed vs. Don Callis Family

A standout eight-man tag team match sees Bandido, JetSpeed (Kevin Knight & Mike Bailey), and Mascara Dorada join forces against the formidable Don Callis Family, comprised of Hechicero, Josh Alexander, Lance Archer, and Rocky Romero. This collision is not only a fight for brand supremacy but a showcase of contrasting styles: the high-flying agility of Bandido and JetSpeed against the calculated brutality of the Callis Family.

In a recent episode, the Don Callis Family performed with ruthless efficiency, demonstrating that their cohesive strategy makes them a dangerous unit. Bandido looks to prove that he's more than just a fluke and aims to capitalize on his recent win against high-level competition. If Bandido and his team can dethrone the Callis Family, it could hint at fresh rivalry dynamics and future championship implications within the tag team division.

Katsuyori Shibata vs. Rush - Singles Match

In a clash of titans, Katsuyori Shibata faces off against Rush, where hard-hitting strikes and grappling prowess will reign supreme. Shibata, returning from significant injuries, has showcased determination and grit, proven by his recent matches despite a setback against Gabe Kidd. On the other hand, Rush brings an unapologetic ferocity that can overwhelm his opponents. Here, the stakes are high: a win for Shibata could solidify his position as a top contender, while a victory for Rush showcases his dominance over a storied competitor like Shibata.

Megan Bayne vs. Tay Melo - Singles Match

Megan Bayne looks to build momentum against the cunning Tay Melo. Going into this match, both women bring contrasting styles: Bayne’s raw power against Melo’s technical sharpness. Bayne aims for consistency after her recent mixed results, while Melo seeks to reclaim prominence in AEW’s women’s division following her involvement in a chaotic Casino Gauntlet. The outcomes here could reflect upon future title shots and rivalries.

Taya Valkyrie vs. Alex Windsor - Singles Match

Taya Valkyrie faces off against Alex Windsor in what promises to be a solid bout highlighting women’s wrestling. Both have shown their prowess in recent outings, and with the spotlight on showcasing women’s talent, fans should anticipate a memorable clash.

200,000 Dollar Four-Way Tag Team Match - Big Bill & Bryan Keith vs. The Gunns vs. Gates Of Agony vs. CRU

This unique four-way tag match for a lucrative prize oozes excitement. Each team has vastly different approaches: Big Bill and Bryan Keith bring a powerhouse approach, the Gunns showcase their wrestling lineage, Gates of Agony showcase powerful brutality, and CRU brings energetic agility. The winner not only secures the prize but may also create sparks for future tag team title matches.

The intertwining narratives within the matches, coupled with the rivalries established from the recent results, create a compelling atmosphere leading into AEW Collision. Hangman Adam Page has recently emerged victorious, which could impact the morale and tactics of the Death Riders as they struggle to regroup. With the energy running high, the stage is set for surprises and revelations that could shape AEW's future.
