Anyone else notice those tiny ring stairs?
Tiny stairs for a tiny ring!
First time watching collision in a long time. The commentary isn't doing it for me. It's oddly quiet. I miss Excalibur.
Hopefully Daddy Magic will be at the desk!
Aldo I think they might be have issues because Don Callis is at the desk and not saying much
I love the combo of Nigel and Tony, reminds me of Heenan and Gorilla Monsoon
Not wrong, they do have a similar dynamic.
So Omega and Ospreay just go for the Ultra kill
On a roll up?
She's been using it a lot lately which I thought was a cool detail. Like they all underestimated her for being crazy/a rookie and she played them all.
Hidden Blade/OWA combo was perfect
Can't believe the vicious attack on the puppet
What are the start times for preshow and main shows?
As the show is in Australia, it has already occurred. Main show began at 3AM EST this morning.
As for the broadcast everyone else gets to see: despite the fancy name, this is the regularly scheduled episode of Collision which airs tonight (it's just special as its in Australia, and extra star packed as a result, and with the filming of an ROH special paired with it which I presume airs next week), as such for anyone who wasn't watching live this morning: there is no preshow, and should air at the regular time Collision normally does in your time zone unless they state otherwise. The AEW website also says "Immediately following NBA All Star Saturday Night" on all its match placards so I assume if the game runs long it might be delayed but should air right after.
Honestly thought Buddy Matthews was gonna call Okada a C U Next Tuesday. 😅
That Hidden Blade + One Winged Angel combo was incredible.
Should call it Meteroa or something
Screw Jericho, sing-a-long with Cope!
He struggled to avoid crying for a moment or two during that one. Intl crowds are the damned best.
Boooooooo it was time!
Thanks for reshuffling tickets sign lol
Is the ring super small?
It looks like it but come on it must be normal size.
It's def not the standard ring, I'm assuming they sourced one locally instead of shipping the ring set up overseas. Diff ring steps than normal, AEW usually runs 20' rings, this sure isn't a 16' but it could be an 18'. I may be crazy but I think its an inch or two shorter than normal height wise too.
Omega getting Final Fantasy fight music just feels right
Claudio is such a nerd lol
Raghdjejshjej
-Mox
That terrifying moment when you remember AEW's ring posts are squared. 😬
I call them the poor choice posts. Never forget what it did to Christopher Daniels eye!
Bit disappointed Harley didn't win, I just hope TK doesn't forget about her now like he usually does
Ditto. It's a mid tier belt and I feel like it was a good time to move the belt to some one that's hot with the crowd.
*watches Copeland take the jump off the ledge and does the exact same fucking thing that led to him snapping his leg, but thankfully from a much shorter height*
Copeland hates his legs
Okada hiring Hologram to assist with his entrance lol
Well 1 Aussie got something done lol
That's all you need!
