Trying to figure out who wins Bryan/Hangman based on what match the loser would get at Wembley. If the Bryan/Nigel match were ever gonna happen, I feel like it would’ve had more hints and build-up by now. On the other hand, I can imagine some crazy blood & guts stuff leading to Okada/Hangman.

Geez, I’ve never seen anyone leave behind a blood puddle that big after taking a DDT 😳 #AEW

Have no idea what’s up with Riho, but this match is a f’ing trainwreck. Lady Frost has looked great every time out, and this is really making her look bad by association #AEW

Definitely didn’t have “Marko Stunt will be back on TV before Sammy Guevara” on my bingo card #AEW

I can’t believe Nigel didn’t follow up and ask Schiavone which titty city he HAS been to #AEW

On the theme of “eff the system”… Matrix One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest V For Vendetta Inglourious Basterds Equilibrium

Using MOVIE as an acronym, etc. M: Made in Hong Kong O: Oasis V: Videodrome I: In the Mood for Love E: Election

I really hate when #AEW closes a ppv-eve show with stuff like that, because all it does is telegraph the outcome of a match that maybe we weren’t already 100% sure of.

Wow… if it can be a movie and not a tv show, then it’s the Hunger Games, but instead of fighting to the death, it’s a dance game tournament where they execute the loser of each match.

The Great Hades Bake-Off I would bet money this already exists on AO3.

Shitty analogy. It’s year-old broccoli with mold and maggots all over it when you’ve got a refrigerator full of perfectly good food you stubbornly refuse to serve for no sensible reason. So you eat the f’ing broccoli and I’ll go find something else.

Taz already got me 30 seconds in with “selling’s overrated” 😂 #AEW

This is a perfect opportunity for a surprise outcome that would benefit the storyline.

Toni Storm and Mariah May will be joined by Mina Wednesday night, but first we'll see Toni and her understudy compete against former opponents in Lady Frost and Leyla Hirsch. Will The Champ and Owen competitor win, or will they falter as a unit before Dynamite? #AEW #AEWCollision #AEWForbiddenDoor

I feel like tonight is the one time the champs will lose an eliminator match, because it’s the one time we don’t want them to #AEW

Dalton Castle and The Outrunners are something I need a lot more of.

There goes the Ricochet money 😂 #AEW

I remember going to the computer lab to work on a project, and getting thrown into a panic because all the card punch machines were occupied.

Reskeet with how old you are, using a vague proxy: I remember when scientists were worried about global cooling.

I’m usually a Rampage apologist, but jfc, that first match was a f’ing mess. With all the guys who aren’t getting TV time, it’s a shame 10 minutes were wasted on that. #AEWRampage

I’m actually enjoying Jericho’s learning tree gimmick once I decided the whole thing is a goof on what Punk thought he was during his time in AEW.

I’m kinda surprised at how many AEW fans didn’t know who Charlie was before tonight’s pre-show. He was one of the best parts of the vlogs for ages. I don’t know why he’s not on camera more regularly.

I finally took the time to learn how to play Spectrum pinball, and it’s not nearly as complicated as everyone makes it out to be. It’s a shame that it became a cautionary tale warning against pinball designers trying something outside the box.

Did that guy in the crowd just flash his gf’s boob during the opening? 😳#AEWDynamite

Hilarious to discover that Cody has a way thinner skin than Wendi Richter.

It’s interesting that Collision gets a good rating and the headline has to attribute it to the lead-in, but if Rampage gets a bad rating because it aired at 6pm instead, it doesn’t even get mentioned in the body of the article.

Trying to get a handle on why any time AEW or Tony Khan are making news, the people who are the most disappointed / concerned / outraged are the ones who seldom, if ever, post anything else about wrestling.

Given that they went to great lengths to protect Julia’s shoulder last night, it really feels like she drops the belt to Willow at #AEWDynasty to setup up the Mercedes / Willow match, which may or may not have been the plan all along.

Seeing so many fed fans opining that AEW releasing the backstage footage is a horrible idea with no upside, is really starting to convince me that it’s a great idea.

After just 3 matches, if nothing else, I can say I’m going to find Justin Roberts more tolerable going forward.

Is it really THAT hard for the ref and the participants to be on the same page? Could’ve been a great finish, but the ref sucked all the air out of the arena #AEW

Get me Rex Kramer!

After hearing Thunder Rosa’s promo on Collision, Purrazzo should just embrace it and change her nickname to “virutosa”. Sounds way nastier 👍
