Darby Wtf man. It's a random Saturday Collision, why are you coffin dropping the apron
The man has to have bones of rubber
So is Andrade officially not in LFI anymore?
You know shits serious when it's filmed in letterbox
The difference between Nigel/Kelly giving the match card rundown and Excalibur doing it is jarring.
The two shows definitely have 2 distinct feels and I feel like they both picked the right roster.
Dynamite is pure chaos and literally anyone could pop up. The commentary team also just feels like 3 bros taking.
Collison is way more structured and less busy. Matches are either obvious squashes or given enough time to breathe. Nigel/Kevin/JR also feel more like commentators
I love Taz, Excalibur, and Tony. Their chemistry is fantastic!
Yeah they are awesome, but the same reasons I love them on Dynamite would be detractors on Collision
😂😂😂 Is Ricky the first suspended wrestler to get a promo, vignette, and full entrance with Pyro?
Also getting some HBK with Diesel vibes from these 2.
😂 Has to be. And great call on the HBK/Diesel reference.
😂😂😂Nigel is such a simp. Did he just say Christian would retain?
It doesn't pay to be Tony Schiavone this episode lol
😂😂😂😂 Christian Cage is great. Only man that can lose a title match and stay the champ
Is that the first time they say 'cardblade' on TV?
I think so lol
I watch on Fite TV but I feel like Austin Gunn said it either in a promo or on commentary.
That makes sense. I figured I missed it lol
Is that Punk dressed as the yellow ranger?
Juice Robinswim is a fantastic fish name!
An enraged Samoa Joe is like the last person I would want to wrestle
Whoa what a hot start!
So is Miro going to kill QTV to redeem Hobbs?
He's going to steal QT's spray tan and reveal him as a pasty fraud!
KILL HIM!
Austin Gunn kills me lol
I'm happy Jay is on All In but we could've had Omega vs Danielson if the rumors are true. Besides Jay should be on the PPV no matter what
I always pop for the Jay White cardboard cutout
Was Dalton okay there? Seemed weird the way he stretched his arm out.
I think he was reaching for the rope
Damn can these four cut a promo.
They're such a good group
Putting Juice and the Gunns together is just funI wasn't sure about their chemistry at first but they've really meshed these past few weeks. I'd love it if they could find a fifth...maybe a big man or something (Big Bill? Hobbs?)
Dang. I guess that's all we'll get from FTR :/
Match Card
Hopefully everyone can see this. The Fediverse growing pains have been a serious pain in the ass this week...
I can't see it in the web browser again, but kbin has been weird a lot recently. Artemis app to the rescue!
CM Punk will now be known as the Golden Vampire to me
It's only a matter of time before we get the Golden Vampire versus the Golden Elite
Now I want to see someone suplexed so hard their brain falls out their butt
Feels like we're going to see big meaty men slapping meat tonight. Hobbs is in action and we heard from Miro
Definitely. And that Hobbs/Miro match should be good. I have no idea who'll go over though.
I would love for the two of them to fued
BCG out here giving Schiavone a palm reading
😂😂😂 Idk why Schiavone agreed to interview then. He has to know he would get bullied
He looked like sour boy everytime they put his hand up 😂
Tony is amazing at subtle indignance when someone is rude to him
HoB doesn't donate to Goodwill is now canon
C'mon Ricky, say Stroke Daddy...
Play that leg, Juice!
Christian should call himself the "Real" TNT champ.
I put a trophy next to his name for a reason
@Montagge can you see this? I know they couldn't see the Dynamite thread...
That Pounce looked NASTY
Absolutely. Diamante looked like she was an inch away from hitting the corner of that rail 😬
Dude, I was thinking the same thing.
😂😂 I'm already loving the relationship between Toni and Lexy
Toni's old Hollywood gimmick is so great. The most impressive part is how quickly she's pulled it off.
Hasn't been mentioned yet, but the FTR/Bucks match is now official.
I love Christian's turtleneck gear. He's like the wrestling version of Archer.
It's a tactilneck.
Spear, huh? Isn't that someone else's move...
Decent show, not as good as it has been recently, but nothing bad either, although I do wish they'd have more than 1 women's match per show especially given the number of squashes this week.
I feel sorry for anyone who is wrestling on Collision, and then All In, next week, it'll be about 18 hours between the two plus a long flight. Brutal.
I'm pretty sure they are filming taping Collison that week after Dynamite
Ah ok, that makes a bit more sense.
