Sucks they just didnt do a duel Dynamite-Collision taping. I would have rather gotten a taped Collision airing before Saturday night all star festivities than nothing at all lol.
After all the shit Savannah got a few weeks ago when we weren't even marketed anywhere as much as this Collision show and barely had the same amount of fans, we were yelling our vocal cords out and AEW's mics were dogshit. This crowd is truly dead. And Vegas metro is almost 2.5 million. Savannah is not even 200k.
It's good work if you can get it.
And that's basically just where he's at in terms of his career these days, it's been a hell of a run for him, but he's finished at the bottom of his group in the last two G1s and basically only beats Dads/Jrs/Young Lions on Road to shows for singles matches these days. Dude is still awesome to me though and we'll always have the pile of classics he delivered over the last bunch of years.
This... This actually makes sense. I know Roddy has to win or else it kills the UK dead but having all of this leading to Okada winning the International Title in his first match is probably a better way to keep the belt as a top title.
Back to Toni for a second. Does anyone remember when she gave Britt her hip attack and Britt sold it like she was legit concussed before rolling her up and EVERYBODY bought it?
Bite U?
All this time, we've been thinking that Okada was going to join or take over Chase U. NO! He's setting up a new campus for his buddy's school! A rival school!
I swear I've never heard it pronounced that way on any NJPW show, only when Ishii makes international appearances. Kevin Kelly still says e-she, while Nigel and Tony seem to go between e-she and e-she-e.
Either defend it around the world like PAC did or have a ruling of the champion defends against people from a different country to them, I still remember when the flag graphics they did had two United States flags on there so many times.
A young Jimmy Cornette often watched Ms Toni's films as a youth.
Rumor has it he soured on AEW when she refused both an autograph and his advances. Apparently free coupons to Wendy's don't really mean that much to her.
Really good match we need that All Elite for Shane Taylor.
Im trying my best to give a shit about UK but just cant rn.
fans rushed the ring, oh no even worse its the undisputed kingdom
Ishii helping out his CHAOS Stablemate you love to see it
Man no Collision next week super sad already
Just think how much more interesting it would've been if OC lost
While he's definitely slowing down, this is your most recent reminder that Ishii still kicks "all of the ass."
Was Stefon's counting really getting to anyone else? It just didn't look right to me when he ended the counts.
..............Trent?...am watching you bud
He sure was slow to get out there . . .
Ishii is a good friend
Kingdom vs CHAOS Friends
You think UK will jump OC?
You called it
Man, I don't know how they're gonna keep the interest up until Revolution tbh
Damn, gotta settle for Dynamite next week. *sad Collision Cowboy noises*
Sucks they just didnt do a duel Dynamite-Collision taping. I would have rather gotten a taped Collision airing before Saturday night all star festivities than nothing at all lol.
Greg with the chair
Terrific match
OC for the G1
That could be a hoot
Really wanted Ishii to win ngl. Still pretty great match
My first time watching Ishii, i'm impressed.
Check out his matches with Omega and Shingo. Fantastic stuff.
Thanks for the recommendation, i'm gonna check those matches!
Enjoy!
This match fucks
Ishii having a killer match. I'm shocked. /s
Casual Ishii banger.
OC is so freaking good.
man, what a fucking match. ishii remains one of the best in the world. a master at his craft. HERE WE GO. LET'S GET A TAG MATCH WITH ISHII AGAINST UK
I like OC but please end this reign
Pray for Roddy
That was really fun. As expected. They delivered a good match.
Great match. Would have loved it if Ishii had a surprise victory.
One week just go way past the mark and actually come close to the 60 minute time limit. Make it seem “real”
Oh I wanted Ishii vs Roddy rematch
Ishii's best AEW match so far.
It’s sad to see Ishii finally getting old kinda
TK's philosophy is "Don't let a good finish get in the way of a better finish"
That lariat, wow! Didn't even knock Orange down at first, just smashed him and he collapsed
I genuinely have no idea who is gonna win lmao. This is too stressful.
Holy shit Ishii!! 😱😱
“60 minute time limit” Let’s calm down
“Why is this free?” -weirdos
"We're moments away from a huge moment!"
"From this moment on... In this very moment. It will be the genesis of MCgillicuttyyyy"
damn that was a really good 2.99999
These 2 are so fucking good, man.
Collision over run?
This match is CHAOS
ISHII SURVIVESSSSS
Oh wow excellent false finishes !
OCs selling is so good
Just got a little sad because I realized Ishii won’t be there live for Okada’s last match tonight
that new japan pacing. slow burn, crazy paced finish. works every time
They got me on all three of those. Damn. Edit: four. jeez.
Let me guess this end with a quick roll up…..the OC special lol
Lmao
well... Bingo
You right but what a banger!
you are a prophet
Called it…..
Goes from Hulk Hogan's hulking up to Ric Flair's flop.
Well, that’s one way to avoid getting chopped
We've got 4 minutes to go before we have to cut to *Wonder Woman 1984*, boys. Let's bring it home.
Damn. I love Ishii
"This is awesome" chants should be a jailable offense. "You deserve it" as well.
I say give the title to Ishii. Why not?
Give me a Takeshita International title run where Callis is his mouthpiece and he has bouts in CMLL, AAA, NJPW etc
Nice idea, but I don't think Takeshita should be the one with gold in United Empire Gold when Ospreay is showing up soon
Osprey would be a great choice!
CMLL *and* AAA? Will they even allow that?
Probably not, I should have have said either not both
I mean, wishful thinking, at least.
Ishii is taking ridiculous bumps on these DDTs
After all the shit Savannah got a few weeks ago when we weren't even marketed anywhere as much as this Collision show and barely had the same amount of fans, we were yelling our vocal cords out and AEW's mics were dogshit. This crowd is truly dead. And Vegas metro is almost 2.5 million. Savannah is not even 200k.
The sound of that forearm, my goodness!
The forbidden door is always creaked open
AEW with New Japan and CMLL. WWE with All Japan. And New Japan with NOAH.
OC doing the Shibata dropkick and boot, I see you. Wouldn't mind seeing that match again in the future.
THAT WAS A KILLER POUNCE
I wasn't feeling the beginning of this match, but they've really picked it up after the commercial break.
Ishii selling these DDTs wonderfully
That put the Damn in DDT
The Tropicana Two-Step!
OC determined to crush what little neck Ishii has
Kevin Sullivan wanted Ishii in the Dungeon of Doom but Bischoff talked him down to Maxx Muscle.
Ishii's life in aew: TK: Ishii, do you want to work in aew this wednesday? Ishii: Sign me up. Who i will lose this time?
It's good work if you can get it. And that's basically just where he's at in terms of his career these days, it's been a hell of a run for him, but he's finished at the bottom of his group in the last two G1s and basically only beats Dads/Jrs/Young Lions on Road to shows for singles matches these days. Dude is still awesome to me though and we'll always have the pile of classics he delivered over the last bunch of years.
Is that not his life in New Japan too?
putting over younger talent as his career sunsets. wish some AEW guys would do the same.
Not that dissimilar to New Japan tbh
Love how OC knows at points he can't brute force or out smart Ishii's raw power.
ishii, what a fucking sell on that ddt. really is a S-tier wrassler
Those DDT bumps from Ishii are INSANE.
Ishii has taken a DDT three different ways and they all looked like he died
*Spiked* Ishii! But surely Ishii is high up on the #NeckStrong power rankings
That DDT sell was crazy.
This crowd did not deserve a show this good.
Ishiii ate all of that
“Kevin Sullivan” 💀💀💀 Jesus Christ
What a sell by Ishi on that DDT
Gotta skip Vegas from now on, surely.
TK should make shit unpredictable and have Ishii win this. Throw a curveball lol OC reign is so stale
"One man's fighting champion is another man's idiot" give that man commentator of the year
The Simply commercial during the Orange Cassidy match was poetry.
lool Schiavone just jumped KK for the ad break
"Well, you gotta chop the orange in half before you squeeze it." A Real Man's Man could probably just crush it in his hand
Cmon Tony, give Ishii a belt! You’ve got like 25 of them to choose from.
He could be the new universal-world-international-continental champion.
Oof vicious chops
Cassidy said “Fuck. Just do it man” lmao
Ishii's no-selling state of confusion >>>
#VICIOUS FOREAREMS FROM OC
"Shit. Just chop me I guess..."
STRONG BOI ORANGE
Time for Orange to turn red
Sometimes you've just got to let a guy give you a reverse knife edge chop.
I’m enjoying the slow-burn story of OC wanting to fight all his friends.
Renee had better watch out.
That chop made MY chest tingle
"Orange Cassidy's gonna need some friends..." You mean like the man he's currently failing at forearming?
The absolute scene if Okada makes the save at Revolution to stop some Undisputed Kingdom interference.
This... This actually makes sense. I know Roddy has to win or else it kills the UK dead but having all of this leading to Okada winning the International Title in his first match is probably a better way to keep the belt as a top title.
Jesus.. death chop.
No A Show next week? :(
NBA All Star Game
OC: I know, I just had to give it a shot
Idk what it is, but the "walking brick" build like Ishii and Rhyno is intimidating AF.
Rhino looks like a Scion xB that wants to destroy people
Every roster needs to have at least one guy that's built like a fridge
Mere...No You Mere
Back to Toni for a second. Does anyone remember when she gave Britt her hip attack and Britt sold it like she was legit concussed before rolling her up and EVERYBODY bought it?
Oh there's something in my front pocket for youuuuuu
RVD/Ishii tag team. The Stoned Pitbulls.
That’s an actual dream for me
Genius. Lol
I didn't used to like Orange Cassidy, but he's grown on me a lot over time
re-introducing those factions right before ospreay and maybe a certain rainmaker join up.
I remember being bummed/annoyed Ishii took the tv title off Roddy instead of BOBBY FISH! I went full stupid once.
If it makes you feel any better, Bobby took it off Ishii
I remember.
Acting like CHAOS has a leader.
Okada left, OC is the leader now. He's beating all the other members to assert dominance.
Yano has seniority.
Bro, you’re not gonna move Ishii in a lockup give it up my guy
Bite U? All this time, we've been thinking that Okada was going to join or take over Chase U. NO! He's setting up a new campus for his buddy's school! A rival school!
Ooooh a Collision main event not going 25+ minutes just because it's the main event. Just 15ish minutes of STONE PITBULL 141
Ishii is such a goddamn presence
always sucks when we don't get to hear "Jane you're playin a game you ^never can win girl"
E-SHE. It's e-she, not e-she-e. Listen to the Japanese commentators or ring announcers if you're unsure.
Actually I think the double ee is correct.
It is. I-shi-i. There’s a second い at the end. Ishi =/= ishii. When you say it quickly it’s not as noticeable but it’s still there.
I swear I've never heard it pronounced that way on any NJPW show, only when Ishii makes international appearances. Kevin Kelly still says e-she, while Nigel and Tony seem to go between e-she and e-she-e.
It has been. But I believe the proper Japanese pronunciation is both I's
I would ask the man himself for the correct pronunciation but I imagine he'd murder me before I could even say hello
We have Kill Bill to thank for this.
Why did they pivot from Orange becoming unhinged to keep his title the 2nd time around. His character kinda stale rn
Extremely stale. They had no real plans after the mox concussion. I legitimately lost interest in the belt since this second reign.
That fan's wearing a CM Punk shirt, change cameras now!
BIG TOM
possible moty contender incoming. ishii is s-tier.
Always love hearing the Ishii theme
It goes unnecessarily hard
Ishii walking around my room right now
Stone pit bull cometh!!!
I said it in the Wednesday thread, but Ishii is like an old school ECW guy and I fuckin love it.
Built like Taz
He would’ve been so great against Shane Douglas or Mike Awesome honestly
Low centre of gravity Jones ova here
They really need to end this OC reign. And I really wished they actually took this belt overseas with all the partnerships they have.
Either defend it around the world like PAC did or have a ruling of the champion defends against people from a different country to them, I still remember when the flag graphics they did had two United States flags on there so many times.
He's keeping it until Revolution
Give it to Takeshita.
I want this so badly. Then have Takeshita/Callis just run wild. Make appearances overseas.
I feel like Orange in Japan would be fucking sick
JANEEEEEEE YOU SAYYY
Poor OC is gonna get the pulp beaten out of him
Cassidy’s theme rules
ITS TIME FOR THE MAIN EVENT
Toni should do more promos on her back. Get your mind out of the gutter.
Somewhere, Corny has already decided that this upcoming match is terrible.
A young Jimmy Cornette often watched Ms Toni's films as a youth. Rumor has it he soured on AEW when she refused both an autograph and his advances. Apparently free coupons to Wendy's don't really mean that much to her.
Where the fuck is the Bang Bang Gang
As soon as you get a Trios belt, you disappear lol
Yeah your not wrong lol
Asking the real question
I imagine there going to face The Acclaimed at Revo but I need my weekly Jay White you feel me

In five years the 1 hour 45 min YouTube compilation of Miss Toni Storm will win an Oscar
AEW is cooking rn. You love to see it.
tonight has been a solid show
Can't wait to see Roddy vs ISHIIII!...II at Revolution for the International championship
