AEW Dynamite/Collision Thread

So it looks like Will Ospreay is going to be done following Forbidden Door as he will need neck surgery. Ospreay revealed he has two herniated discs at the C2 & C6 vertebrae pressing against his spinal cord. He said he hid his pain from the medical team and wrestlers in order to get through. So pretty much, this knocks him out for over a year.

That's what I thought his announcement a few weeks ago was. Instead he was like "I'm hurt, I'll be out for a few weeks", then a few weeks later we get this news.


Also sounds like Swerve could be done for a while too. This will hurt aew a lot with those two injured.

Nigel competing while Danielson is the one on commentary is funny given how often Nigel likes to rip Danielson on commentary. Would've been funnier if Danielson repaid him the favour. The ending for that match felt like they messed it up and redid it right after.

Brodito winning the tag titles seemed like a weird choice. Once Hurt Syndicate was taken out I thought for sure FTR was winning and setting up FTR vs Cope/Christian for the tag titles in Toronto, but looks like that's not going to happen? And the ending of that match also felt so weird like they forgot what was supposed to happen during the pin attempt.

Lights out steel cage looked like HIAC just without a roof. The match was what you expected, but to me it didn't stand out as some huge match where the result of the match impacts anything.

But Swerve and Ospreay being taken out of action for a long time will hurt AEW for sure. In hindsight maybe they should have lost the tag match and not be able to challenge for the title for a year since they won't be around anyways.
