Excellent show tonight, and it was exactly the show AEW needed. They needed to show that they could shine without Punk, even in Chicago, and they did.
Absolutely!
That whole TK announcement felt so surreal
It did. When he said that he felt his life was in danger and the crew felt like their lives were in danger, that really said it all, I suppose.
Yeah now it makes you imagine how deranged he must've been
I wish they had the Gunn's on commentary. They crushed it last time.
Austin especially is very good at ad-libbing
BD...Mox...Tony's reminding us of all the other cool toys he has in his toy box.
Yup. The start of this show has been a statement, and the statement is, "We don't need Punk."
Wow he made Tony feel so unsafe that it broke through how much Tony likes Punk. Absolutely wild. He must have gone bonkers at Tony.
The fact he said he feared for his life is damning
He had to have put hands on Tony, right? At least grabbed him.
Definitely. The monitors...face-to-face confrontation...I guess its all true now.
If people really felt there life was in danger good by aew and wwe the only place for punk now is cyn or nwa
I hope he tries UFC again.
Lol yeah that's not happening 🤣
Maybe Cage Fighting Fury Championship would be willing to feed him a few cans
I read "fury" as "furry" and pictured something completely different lol
No, that's where CP Munk ended up.
Maybe Furry cage fighting he can dominate
😂😂 They wild for that thrust spot
I watched EFFY's Big Gay Brunch, and that was still the gayest thing I've seen in wrestling today. You love to see it.
Dirty dancing if I've ever seen it
lol well done.
Mox putting Cassidy over big. You love to see it.
That match is going to be so good
I'm pretty stoked for this main event. Guessing Jay takes it.
Could go either way real easy
Father of the year TNT champ Christian Cage is here to conduct business
Toni is a great worker. I see why she got the belt back after Hayter
For sure. And her new gimmick might be my favourite thing going right now.
I think the Illustrious Toni Storm should drop the dead weight but it looks like she's clinging on to anything she can rn
I agree. I'm sure it'll lead to a solo run soon, though...and a psychotic downward spiral lol
The Acclaimed and Planet Jarrett are perfect rivals for each other
I almost hope Joe loses so he can focus on AEW more.
Of course Cash would throw up an X for Punk
Spotted that too. What a douche
Rodman has weed his last woo
Bryan and Ricky should be s good match
The Bang Bang Gang arriving in style as usual
MATCH CARD:
What is Dennis doing here exactly?
Keeping the crowd from rioting after the Punk announcement.
Turns out they needn't have bothered. The crowd has been fine since Danielson came out.
Time for a Hobbs squash.
Cope harder Chicago
Lol CM Junk sign
Fuck yes! Danielson! He's definitely needed right now lol
Bryan we need you in Chicago to stop a riot
Mox targeting souls and Max doing what I'm pretty sure was a Punk line in his rap lol
Imagine being Dennis Rodman right now...
Hobbs record is great but it still feels like he loses all of his big matches
He's still pretty green so they may not feel he's quite ready for a big push just yet
CM Punk trying to hack the feed lol
lol Wasn't Max Headroom from Illinois?
EDIT: the "TV hacker" I mean
Oh shit it was!
Adam has alot of crazy exes
Mark Davis is like two Komander's
Its wild when you really think about how massive AEWs roster is
The promos so far have been great!
Definitely. It's like a massive spot at the top of the card just opened up and everybody's auditioning for it lol
Glad DO brought up their past with Cole. But when they went to Lexi I was really hoping it would be for another Toni segment lol
I love that John immediately referred to him as Budge lol
lol yeah. And nightcrawlers too.
If KK is gonna call it the Oscutter. I hope Wayne and Ospreay have a match at some point to earn his respect
I know they have on the Indies. But yeah I want to see that in AEW ASAP.
Jay looks like he takes double damage from everything but in return is basically indestructible
Mox is great at these slightly deranged promos. It's wild to think of all the crazy shit he does to try to back it up as well
Aaaand they won the crowd back
My thoughts exactly. Good call starting the show with his return.
Be nice to John! He's just a boy!
Those jezebels!
YEEEESSSS My favorite carny Jeff Jarrett has arrived
Slapnuts nation stand up!
This crowd is gonna be ugly.
Yeah, it's gonna be wild. And hopefully very entertaining.
It'll probably be bumpy. They haven't had a lot of time to adjust sandwiched between two PPVs.
You know shit is messed up when Mox is quoting poetry
The Outcasts did not convince me that Toni will be fine
Looks like Jay's rabies are kicking in. Great match though!
lmao I wanna know who the hell suggested that spot! Garcia or Billy? 😂😂 Wow.
Sooo Christian has basically been a leech his entire AEW career and admonishes anyone who accomplishes more than him
Are we getting the American Dragon back?
😂😂 Did TK notice Brit outshined Kris on Rampage or they let her so she would look better on Collision
I'd like to think they do a best of 5 rock paper scissors to determine the order they come out
Ricky delivers on his passionate babyface promos when he has something good to work with somehow while challenging a beloved legend he brutally whipped
This gotta be the most lively Collision thread in this community since establishment lol thanks CM Punk 😂
