Collision was okay. Some good matches. Rampage had a better card than usual, so good for them. But damn, three hours really is a lot of time. And then they taped ROH and there's five more hours for Full Gear tonight including zero hour. If someone sits through all that it's nine hours in two days. Even if it's the greatest wrestling in the world, it would still be way too much.

Just looked up and his debut was Oct 1st, so a little bit over 40 days. Still feels like he has done nothing in AEW yet.

TK has a huge problem with striking while the iron is hot. I remember three situations from the top of my head: - Thunder Rosa losing at Revolution just to win the championship two weeks later in her hometown. It wasn't the same. - The Acclaimed losing at All Out just to win the championship at Grand Slam. It wasn't the same. - Jade Cargill's story being stalled for what it felt like decades while they waited for Statlander to come back from injury and be the one to dethrone her. Copeland came in with huge hype, pulling in millions of views on Youtube and... he's had one singles match in two months. Oh, and I forgot about Takeshita. He pinned Omega twice and nothing came out of it. Lately AEW feels like it's on hold. I'm really concerned about The Devil's reveal now, they are dropping the ball a lot.

It was just a rumour. But Corgan is a big carny and Nick Hausman (the guy who reported) only knows what CM Punk tells him, so maybe there was never any truth to it.

He also need to wrestle more. One match in two months is not enough. All the hype is basically gone.

That feud with American Top Team/Scorpio Sky was awful for everyone involved. Sammy and Tay got the spot that was supposed to be for Cody and Brandi (these two were really something else huh) and the whole program brought everyone down. Tay went from a badass judo black belt to a bad valet. They should not have been paired on screen IMO.

The CW is getting NXT now, so yeah, the slot is gone lol That's the NWA for you

I love Sammy and yeah, he's way better as a heel. The vast majority of wrestlers are better as a heel.

It's nice that they've paired The Righteous with Jake The Snake. Could be good. Penta vs Swerve is going to be amazing, everything else is a hard pass.

Tranquilo Club just posted this video and it's pretty much everything that I've been feeling lately.

Wait, what? That can't be real, right?

AEW absolutely does not need him. I was kinda fine with him being for Sting's last ride because of their history and all, but signing him for a multi-year deal is just a terrible decision.

Just awful. Flair has nothing to add at this point.

Well, that was a stinker lol When I remembered to tune in yesterday, OC was making his entrance and I immediately turned it off. Saw the results this morning and fast forwarded through the show, nothing really interesting. Another boy that cried wolf HUGE announcement. And with the DST ending this weekend, the shows are gonna end at midnight for me. Might skip more shows if this is what they keep doing.

Oh yeah, that should be the normal thing from now on. Everyone should be targeting the World Champion. That's another reason why MJF should have dropped the ROH Tag Team belts to The Righteous (who have completely vanished btw)

Christian is a savage lol best heel in AEW right now Collision is a must watch now. Hope they give it enough time, this is gonna be a banger.

I saw this tweet yesterday and I swear to god that I had completely forgot she is in this company lol

Collision was quite good. Miro vs Andretti was better than I expected. Still too many squashes. Good that they left quite some time for the main event again, they should do it every week for Collision. I think it's the first time that Copeland didn't show up since his debut. I like it, it's better not having him on the show than just doing another promo, but I think he should be wrestling next week. He's not wrestling on Dynamite, I think, so I hope he will on Collision. Gotta keep him wrestling. Oh, and the HOB takeover on Collision was awesome.

I like it. Hope there is a production improvement and they get a better stage too.

I mean, it's not like I'm gonna watch either, but if Corgan could hustle not only one but two tv slots for his company, great for him. Way better than anyone would hope. Last time I saw they were behind a paywall on Fite. Don't know how many people were paying for that but I believe it's waaaay less than what CW can reach.

So apparently NWA has signed a TV Deal with The CW. Pretty good news for them. Haven't watched anything since pre-pandemic but I might check out once they premiere.

Pretty good Dynamite. Great segments and good matches, except for the squashes and the battle royale. When I saw the people in the ring I lost all the interest I had. Pretty sad to see Sting retiring but I'm glad he had this amazing run and can retire on his own terms.

Very well said. Sometimes AEW feels like WWE lite. Meanwhile in the earlier Dynamites it was like watching the good parts of Nitro all over again. The wrestling is still good, specially on PPVs, but everything else is kinda missing. Collision had a different feeling at first but in the past weeks it's basically a sequel to Dynamite.

It's hard not to have ex-WWE guys when they had a monopoly in the business for almost 20 years. AEW is yet to turn 5. I'd have a problem if they signed people just because they were in WWE, like TNA did back then.

The pacing has been different from the earlier Collisions for a few weeks now. It's feeling more Dynamite-y with the rushed matches and segments. The main event last night got quite some time which is always nice. Dynamite's main events always get from 12 to 15 minutes while Collision usually has 20+ minutes.
