AEW Collision Slam Dunk Saturday 2026 Notes: Tekla Claims “Timeless” Toni Storm Staged Attack on Herself, RUSH vs. Darby Allin and Mina Shirakawa vs. Thekla for AEW Women’s World Title Matches Set for 3/25 Dynamite Show

Tekla Claims “Timeless” Toni Storm Staged Attack on Herself

Saturday’s taped AEW Collision Slam Dunk Saturday 2026 show featured AEW Women’s World Champion Thekla claiming that “Timeless” Toni Storm had staged the mystery attack on her at this past Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite show.

During the show, Thekla was seen backstage being interviewed by Lexy Nair who asked about the attack on Storm. Thekla proceeded to mock Storm and took credit for Storm being out of action. Thekla claimed that Storm staged the attack on herself after seeing what she did to Kris Statlander. Thekla stated that Storm is faking it so she doesn’t have to fight her again and put the whole locker room on notice saying that they had better “fake their own deaths” because fighting her would be worse for them.

#AEW Women’s World Champion @toxic_thekla claims she had something to do with the attack on Toni Storm… just not the way anyone expected.
