Young Bucks & Kyle Fletcher are one step closer to regaining AEW championships

The Young Bucks are three-time tag team champions in AEW, and Kyle Fletcher is the self-proclaimed greatest TNT champion. Both of them moved one step closer to regaining those titles.

The Young Bucks opened Collision (Feb. 7, 2026) to wrestle the Gates of Agony. The winner advances to a #1 contender bout on Dynamite. The clash of styles was power versus speed. I’ll let you figure out which is which. In case you need a hint, watch GOA catch Nick Jackson on a dive then use him as a battering ram into Matt Jackson. This clips illustrates the flow of the match. GOA had their opponents well scouted for defensive tactics.

GOA also unleashed explosive offense, such as Bishop Kaun launching Matt for Toa Liona to shoulder block out of the air.

In the end, the Young Bucks found their groove. Liona ate some superkicks and still didn’t go down. The Bucks had to adjust on the fly. Liona caught Matt on the DDT attempt, so Nick kicked the big man in the leg. That impact knocked Liona off balance, and Matt executed the DDT. That move effectively eliminated Liona from the finish. The Bucks double-teamed Kaun for the Meltzer Driver to win.

The Bucks will wrestle the Rascalz (Dezmond Xavier & Myron Reed) and a mystery team on the February 11 edition of Dynamite. The winners earn a shot at FTR for the AEW World Tag Team Championship. FTR had fighting words for the Jackson brothers. They will take pleasure in handing the Bucks one more lose to prove that their careers are not as good as FTR’s. Also, prayers to Stokely Hathaway so that he feel his legs again.

Over in the TNT Championship picture, Tommaso Ciampa was in the Collision main event to defend the title in a three-way against Roderick Strong and Claudio Castagnoli. Fletcher had a keen eye on the scene. He was upset at Ciampa tarnishing the legacy of the TNT title with these open challenges. Kazuchika Okada stepped in to encourage Fletcher to take back the belt, so he can return home with the gold at Grand Slam Australia. This clip is worth watching just to hear Okada say, “Protokada!”

Ciampa kept the TNT title in his possession after a running knee to Strong out of nowhere. Roddy had Claudio pinned after two jumping knee strikes, then Ciampa lowered the boom to blast Strong on the cover. It was a beautiful finish.

Fletcher took Okada’s advice and confronted Ciampa in the ring to call his shot next. They will meet on Dynamite for the TNT title bout. Ciampa sealed it with a kiss.
