Another Saturday, another episode of AEW Collision. And once again, this was a Collision which had more positives than negatives.

In the main event, the nefarious Christian Cage put his TNT Championship on the line against Bryan Danielson in a match that was just as good as you'd anticipate. Elsewhere, TBS Champion Kris Statlander defended her prize against Skye Blue, and Willie Mack challenged Samoa Joe for the ROH TV Title.

In non-title contests, Bullet Club Gold's Juice Robinson battled Christopher Daniels, Aussie Opens' Kyle Fletcher took on Boulder of the Iron Savages, and Keith Lee was also finally back in action for the first time in nearly two months.

Away from the in-ring work, Adam Copeland, Ricky Starks, Big Bill, Luchasaurus, Nick Wayne, and FTR all had significant roles to play, as well as backstage interviews and video packages serving to give certain other talents some time in the spotlight.

From Toledo, Ohio's Huntington Center, let's see what did and didn't work on this week's AEW Collision - with certain familiar problems frustratingly rearing their head once more.

With all of that in mind, then, Saturday night's alright for fighting...
