AEW’s Collision will return to its original theme song, Elton John’s “Saturday Night’s Alright For Fighting,” at the start of 2025.
Tony Khan confirmed the change on Wednesday, stating, “Starting this Sat 1/4 Collision simulcasts Saturdays on @TNTdrama + @StreamOnMax! Our Christmas #AEWCollision episode was our most viewers in a year and a half! Elton John Saturday Night’s Alright For Fighting is back for 2025!”

The iconic track initially served as Collision’s theme from its June 2023 debut until July 20, 2024. It was then replaced by “Red Light Is On (Let’s Go)” by Omega Sparx and Mikey Ruckus.
Following the initial change, Ruckus addressed the fan response on social media, acknowledging the popularity of the original theme. “Hey guys. Its ok. I knew it would be universally hated. Theres no such thing as an upgrade from Elton,” he wrote. “Change is inevitable. We tried something different with the college/gogo cadence. I knew many wouldn’t get it. Again, it’s ok. I’m happy with it, my team is happy with it. It’s not changing.”
The reinstatement of the Elton John classic comes as Collision begins simulcasting on both TNT and Max starting this Saturday.
