Was maybe gonna "check it out" to "see" what AEW puts forward to "offer" on a "new show" that might have "more eyes" on it... but I see it isn't airing live in Canada, not airing until 10PM. Too late to start watching for my blood... especially having to wake up early tomorrow for work.

I can't watch live so I will have to dvr

Just a nit pick, but while I love the intro song I do not love the video package. Seems to not match the upbeat/"bright" feel of the tune if that makes sense. Video looks like it was made for generic heavy metal intro with explosions.

Excellent song choice tbh. Glad to see Miro coming back. Hobbs getting more TV time is a good thing. Don’t care about Scorpio Sky anymore. He’s whatever.

Video was 100% not made with that song in mind

Didn’t realise it launched today. Great stuff. Already the best show of the week.

Is JR ageing really that funny, fuckrod?

Yes

Is it?

Tis.

An old man fell and smashed his face. I'm howling.

Xrod is just sad and lonely and this is the only place he gets attention, obvs. Makes me yearn for droford.

The Collision video doesn’t match the song. It’s also going to be funny if they have to change it because they get booted to another night.

No one gets AEW in Australia. If it were on TV, I MIGHT give it a chance. I want there to be a good AEW to put the bad AEW on notice so bad. Have a feeling they’re going to do all they can to shoot themselves in the foot though.

I mean, you’re featuring Luchasaurus on the first show.

Glad Kevin Kelly is probably getting paid $500k a year now.

Looking forward to the political disaster that ensues if Collision either:

A) Flops.

B) Succeeds.

There are people with executive positions in the company that don’t want this to do well. That’s insane to me.

Why is Orange Cassidy being involved in this show? It defeats the purpose of having a CM Punk or a second straight-forward show at all. I hope he’s just got an International Champion placeholder slot.

You guys don't even know a callback from this very site???

It's not funny because he is old, it's funny because him saying they beat WWE every week is akin to somebody claiming they won a fight when looking like that.

Sensitive!

Drebin is on site with exclusive reports for all of TPWW's wrestling fans!

First one to spot Drebin in the crowd gets a prize. Look for the "Seph + Dale < Noid" sign.

Hope you have a good time.

Does JR claim that AEW beats WWE? That sounds like more of a Chris Jericho, Dave Meltzer or Matt Hardy thing.

Not a sellout. Hard cam side fairly bare. No one in the upper deck so they didn't sell those seats. Other side fairly full.

Was a legit sellout for punks return last time.

pipe bomb time

people with jim cornette shirts

Yeah. Needs more of a retro light show vibe. Fucking fantastic song choice though. I want someone to make an 80s intro with it.

Hahahaha Christian celebrating with the title is so brilliant.

Good hoss match.

Christian celebrating like he won it is great.

Didn’t think we’d get any more additions to this after AEW got a TV deal in Australia but… LET’S GO!

So I’m guessing nothing noteworthy came from the Punk promo.

Expecting big things from this. These guys are fucking machines in the ring

A few cheeky shots but nothing GAME CHANGING.

Still a really good promo. Worth a watch on youtube.

Andrade vs buddy delivered

Figure 8 at the finish was a nice touch

Have to believe this is leading to house of black vs LIJ at forbidden.

miro time

miro crush

Sooooooooo nice having good commentary in aew
