All Elite Wrestling has added a championship defense to its Revolution Zero Hour pre-show and a stipulation match to the main card. Ricochet will defend the AEW National Championship in a 21-man Black Jack Battle Royale, while Toni Storm faces Marina Shafir with everyone banned from ringside. The event is set for March 15, 2026, at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
All Elite Wrestling revealed updates to its Revolution pay-per-view lineup during the March 7 episode of AEW Collision. The pre-show, known as Zero Hour, will feature Ricochet defending his AEW National Championship against 20 other competitors in a 21-man Black Jack Battle Royale. Participants for the match have not been announced. Ricochet became the inaugural champion at AEW Full Gear by winning a Casino Gauntlet match and has since made seven successful defenses, including bouts in promotions such as CMLL, NJPW, and RevPro.
Zero Hour is scheduled to air for free on HBO Max, YouTube, and social media channels at 7 p.m. ET, one hour before the main Revolution event begins on pay-per-view. The announcement for the free streaming was made on the same Collision episode.
On the main card, Toni Storm and Marina Shafir's ongoing feud will culminate in a singles match with the stipulation that everyone is banned from ringside. Their rivalry began in late 2025 around AEW Blood & Guts and continued through the women's tag-team titles tournament, where Storm partnered with Mina Shirakawa and Shafir teamed with Megan Bayne. This will be their third singles encounter: Storm won the first in 2022 and the second in early 2026 via disqualification. During Collision, Shafir interfered in a tag-team match involving Storm and Shirakawa against Bayne and Lena Kross, leading to Storm issuing the challenge, which Shafir accepted.
Revolution takes place on Sunday, March 15, 2026, at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California. The full card includes several other high-profile matches, such as AEW World Champion MJF defending against Hangman Page in a Texas Death Match, AEW Women's World Champion Thekla versus Kris Statlander in a two-out-of-three falls match, and AEW Trios Champions Kazuchika Okada, Kyle Fletcher, and Mark Davis defending against Kevin Knight, Mike Bailey, and Mistico.
