That space was an embarssment by him regarding Mercedes and New Japan to

If it’s false I’m sure Meltzer will be blamed

Also they have more than enough talent to have Collision and a soft brand split without Punk on there. Coach is an ultimate stooge, but his tweet from over the weekend is on-point about that Saturday night timeslot being a death one for pro wrestling. Helps in the summertime, but not so much during college football season. I'm sure it'll do better ratings than whatever TNT airs on Saturday nights currently, but I'd be shocked if they averaged after 5-6 weeks more than 500k viewers.

Yeah I’m sure it’ll do good when dvr numbers are accounted for, but I see it being somewhere between the 300-600k tops that Rampage gets when they move the time slots around.

:laff: at that guy from PWInsider (was it Scherer?) complaining about the lack of seriousness and accountability wrestling "journalism" has and on the same day Raj Giri gets drunk on Twitter and says whatever shyt comes to mind and of course people take it as him "reporting" on stuff :mjlol: :dead:

It'll easily do better than Rampage due to the timeslot alone. 10pm on a Friday night is terrible, but I guess WBD is happy enough with the viewership compared to whatever they showed before.

:whistle:



Maybe not a good idea for TK to play the legal game with a man who was assaulted by his EVP’s.

He was assaulted by them just like the bucks kicked down the door, ace wife being in danger, punk’s feral dog being injured, Tony forcing punk to wrestle injured, etc

This was their house show lineup last week after false advertising Mox and Britt.

FTR vs. Gunn's
Claudio vs. Pillman Jr
Powerhouse Hobbs vs. Pat Buck
Firm vs. OC & Darby Allin
Toni Storm vs. Billie Starkz
Christopher Daniels & Sean Spears vs. The Boys
Hook vs. Ethan Page

I understand their young talent needs reps but every time they present a lineup like this or have the lineups they have on rampage & battle of the belts, they do micro damage to the AEW name and that’s what Collision has to battle against. Don’t become a wrestler if you want all Saturdays off. Tony is gonna have to bring the stars and have real matches.
