[6/17/23] AEW Collision Debut: FTR/Sourpuss Punk vs. BC Gold/Joe, Andrade/Matthews, Miro Back, and More

[richaveli83]

Good episode although I'm not a fan of all these shows for a promotion. Dynamite is enough and the youtube shows were good for a WCW Pro/Main Event/WWF Shotgun Saturday Night/Velocity/etc show.

It's good that more wrestlers can get a chance to be on TV more often.

 

[Silkk]

If you're in love with the dynamite style of wrestling then yes other than that hell nah

There were no stories or anything that leads into needing to watch next week. We got the returns but other than that, It was just matches. Which is cool, But if they're already having trouble with selling tickets outside of the Chicago show it needs to be more than that.

I guess Punk's "journey" is the selling point and what they are doing with all the dudes who made their return but I would have shot a big angle at the end of the show

Yeah, I figured they would set something up to make Jay White or Samoa Joe look like a big deal/lead into something next week.


I know we got the Punk/Joe staredown but that's not really much other than just that.

I was epxecting KENTA or someone to show up and attack him to get his ass on the Forbidden Door II card but it looks like he just won't wrestle

New show & return and

They ran Chicago into the ground

Ain’t no way

 

[Norrin Radd]

Good show

 

[MenacingMonk]

I hope Christian continues to hold on to the title and act like he’s the champ.

 

[Instant Classic]

Cool main event, loved how Joe vs Punk felt like a big deal.

All in all, surprised at how uneventful the show was. As in, they didn't give us any reason whatsoever to tune in next week.

That's going to be a big problem as they're struggling to sell tickets at the next few events.

I think they're hurting themselves by having too many shows. I know Warner probably wouldn't allow it, but they should really turn Rampage into the ROH show because I think over-saturation is going to hurt these non-dynamite shows.

 

[MenacingMonk]

So far, Kelly and Nigel are not a good fit; they’re boring at times. @Silkk is right about Nigel. He’s fine in a 3-man booth, but not strong enough for a 2-man commentary team.

They need a 3-man team. Excalibur is needed. Dude brings the energy to the team.

 

[MenacingMonk]

Andrade/Buddy was underwhelming. The injury angle killed the potential.

 

[MenacingMonk]

Starting the main event. It does have a different feel to it. Show been decent overall.

JR shoulda stayed his ass in the hotel room.

 

[Dog Based Gremlin]

randomly found this on my own... Im sure im late

RAW 2011

 

[SubZeroDegrees]

Of course, Young Dorks responded about selling merch.

Them dudes are fukking lames.

 

[WhatsGoodTy]

Okay I had fell asleep like a old head watching this back now.

So, luchadino is definitely gonna turn on Christian on some nikka I did all this shyt you ain’t do anything.

hobbs still with QT Just keep him off tv till you find something to do with him. They should give him a hall of pain type gimmick tbh. Talk about now growing up he had to beat down dudes in his hood….


Andrade vs Buddy was good we all knew this though.

This nikka sky is back??? I don’t know when since the graphic was up for .2 seconds smh. Why was he off tv for so long? Was he hurt or just lolaew?

Hopefully they do something with miro

Women’s tag match idc lol

CMFTR lmao… Joe vs Punk makes me feel old good first episode
