Re: AEW Dynamite/Collision Thread

Texas death match between Hangman and Mox, you know it'll be the definition of a death match.

Moxs confused reaction when he hears the crowd chanting "bald".

Then randomly takes a shot at CM Punk?

So Will Ospreay said he can't challenge for the AEW World Championship.... for a year while The Bucks are putting up their EVP Titles. So I'm assuming that means AEW All In London in 2026 takes place in its usual end of August spot in Wembley.

[UFCMPunk]

I know it's likely Hangman/Moxley will main event the show but Mercedes/Toni Storm & Okada/Omega have a compelling case of main eventing the show. Also, since WWE has been busy countering AEW this weekend. It would be interesting if Tony Khan had Mercedes/Toni Storm main event All In with Evolution on Sunday.

Mercedes vs Toni is by far the most interesting women's match in a weekend full of them, but Tony shouldn't put them in the main event as a counter to Evolution. Do it if he thinks they can just be a great main event.

That promo between Swerve & Hangman on Collision was so damn good. When Swerve shows up to help Hangman on Saturday beat Moxley, that pop will be crazy. The storytelling and evolution of the Hangman/Swerve rivalry has been one of the best things in AEW lately.

[Majingir]

I find the Ospreay promo a bit strange how he's basically like "I've been hiding injuries from our medical staff but the reality is, I'm real banged up" and then just being like "I'll have to step away, but don't worry, I'll be back in 4 weeks!"

Like what was the point of that entire thing making it seem like it's some long term injury and we won't see him for a while when he's literally just gone for a month (or even then, is he gone or just not competing)?

AEW's production still needs help. I saw the con-chair-to shot to Christian and they switch last second to a shot that looked horrible. I saw footage from a fan online on the ramp, and my god do they miss! I'm not saying they need to actually hit him but when you can't even make it look close, come on.

Young Bucks getting the local jobber entrance.

Been a while since we saw that:

I think most people hold back on those. Not the first time I've seen that move and you can tell someone clearly didn't connect at all. Like when the chair gets dented on certain moves, you can tell its from hitting the ground

Renee: Timeless Toni Storm vs Mercedes Mone was billed as the greatest women's wrestling match before it even happened.


Maybe that's the issue with these "wrestling journalists" with their obvious biases for and against certain promotions?


Kyle Fletcher being Don Callis Jr will never not be funny.

It's been a while but the Bucks are finally back! We haven't seen these Bucks in over a decade. Max and Jeremy Buck really have come a long way since TNA.

Stoke having a mid life crisis on live tv.

Renee was all over this show. Always proves how she's the best "interviewer" in wrestling. Though I wouldn't even call her just an interviewer anymore either because she's basically a character in a way which enhances the talent rather than just being a mic stand. Jackie and Cathy do a good job too when given the right person to interview, but Renee can do it with anyone.

So officially the Forbidden Door concept is dead... I look up and down the card and it's basically AEW vs AEW lol. Just re-name it already.

[UFCMPunk]

AEW fans, are you ready for 5 second poses? Edge/Cope & Christian are back! They will team up to take on Kip Sabian & Nick Wayne at Forbidden Door.

The first time they have teamed up since April 2011, and first time on PPV as a team since WWF Invasion in 2001! WWE really could have kept the every 10 years thing going by having Edge & Christian take on the Usos in the build up to Mania 37 in... 2021.

Forbidden Door was cool at first because having interpromotional matches was so rare in the US. Even having a company here acknowledge new Japan seemed strange.

But ever since, we have WWE with TNA and AAA. AEW bought ROH. And we see new Japan and CMLL guys show up in aew outside of this one month anyways.

It's funny looking at the 2011 team up and their opponents were....Del Rio and Brodus.

I can't believe how much Vince hated Christian. The fact that those two haven't had a real teamup or reunion since their split in 2001 is so crazy. Even the split, it wasn't a full on split, it was just Christian turning on him, they had 2 PPV matches with a winner, then that was it. A 2 month feud at best.

And how did Vince or HHH not have those two together during Christians return in 2021! Like you said, Edge and Christian vs Usos. Maybe not WM since Edge was already in the WM main event, but right after that Christian should've come in and teamed up with him. Though wouldn't have felt the same since even then there weren't any fans.

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.
