AEW Dynamite preview (Sept. 23, 2026): Ricochet is trying his best to ruin the hottest new thing in AEW

Cageside Seats • AEW

AEW Dynamite (and Collision!) airs tonight (Sept. 23) with a live show emanating from Fishers Event Center in Indianapolis, Indiana. This is the final episode of Dynamite during the four week build to All Out, which takes place on Saturday (Sept. 26) in Chicago. Ricochet is trying his best to ruin the hottest new thing in AEW AEW’s All Out pay-per-view takes place on Saturday night instead of AEW Collision, so Tony Khan is tacking an hour of Collision onto the end of tonight’s Dynamite for a 3 hour block of programming. Given the fact that Khan can’t help himself with absurdly long overruns each week, it will probably be closer to 3.5 hours of AEW programming tonight. It sounds exhausting just typing that sentence out, especially knowing there are probably five more hours of AEW content planned for Saturday night. The biggest attraction on tonight’s card is Swerve Strickland and New Level defending the AEW world trios championship against Ricochet & Gates of Agony aka The Demand. Kofi
