I'd like more than 2 matches announced for Collision please Tony. I think it'll be a fun show live but announce some more so I can get hyped

I stayed in chinatown for a few days while visiting vancouver a couple years ago and it kicks rear end that the arena is right there. it may be on griffiths way.. but its the crowd thats gonna go berserk!!

This is by far the most annoying poo poo about AEW right now. Announce poo poo I'm advance, dumbasses!

I get wanting to hold some matches back for the day off to get some last minute hype/walk up ticket sales but probably should only be like 1-2 matches. Rest of the card should be announced a week out with 1-2 matches a couple weeks/month out to sell tickets locally. It's still the weakest part of AEW right now

I'd also like more things advertised in advance but I understand that Tony wants to make sure a match is going to happen before he announces it.

It's annoying as gently caress because during the Wednesday Night War, AEW would have stuff lined up for weeks at a time as opposed to NXT, which often you knew nothing on the card. How did this poo poo get reversed?!

I wish they would ask good questions like this at the scrum instead of whatever tripe they usually blather.

People shittalked Gaston because they think him being a big guy who can talk means his work must suck but he had a 4.25 match with the Beast. The man has an Oscar nomination for God's sake, he's not Bluto.

Add me to the list of people annoyed that we don't run down the cards anymore. I would be okay with not a full week's notice but a one-show notice, i.e. Dynamite runs the full rampage and Collision card and Collision runs the full Dynamite card, plus a headliner match or two a week in advance.

The sad decline of AEW is quite similar to Universal just degrading into cart rides with a screen next to them. A boring train bobs up and down as MJF kangaroo kicks you in 3D.

Like I'd be okay with leaving 1-2 matches to announce day off cause hey, it can build last minute hype and get tickets plus the nature of TV wrestling means it's nice to have something you can do the day off. But not 2/3rds of the card

hi im tony. did you know that a koala's appendix is about two meters long.
Still very much like AEW. Disappointed in the DoN card but I'm already in Vegas for the Sphere so I might as well. But thinking about how we got from loving to liking AEW, the real downturn started when Tony started running ROH in tandem with AEW. It's just way too much for one man to handle. Add on another two hour show and losing guys to injury/brawls and he feels like he is just winging it lately. But it's kind of hard to gently caress up with all this talent when all you have to do is have them go out and wrestle. Plus it's not like wrestling doesn't ebb and flow naturally.

The WBD/NBA stuff is really giving me pause though. Zaslav is a loving moron and cable is obviously dying. I feel like AEW is gonna come out fine but there is that 5-10% chance poo poo goes south that I can't deny. If they have to spend 3 billion on C level NBA games where does that leave us.

Glad things are getting better, I’m holding out on Super Nintendo World before I go back. King Kong is a criminal offense but we always have Spider Man.
