Oh man. Another great AEW Collision! A few thoughts:

1) I think a pre-announced match was the right way to bring back Kingston. He has been gone for so long, and we all miss him so much, but it almost got to be disappointing every time he didn't show up. Now we know for sure when he'll be there.

Forgive me if this is old news...but just saw the rumored location for Mania 43. If that's true, AEW should absolutely counterprogram it with a stadium show in the US. Invite all the indies. Make it a celebration of the sport.

Just remember that today there are a lot of assholes very sad. And while those same sad assholes often ridicule and marginalize anyone different than them, leverage 'free speech' to spew hate, and tell us we suffer from toxic empathy...we are supposed to feel bad for them I guess?

AEW fans: This is Daniel. I enjoy Daniel's takes on wrestling. I don't know anything about Daniel except he's having a rough day and week. I also know I've seen countless examples of people on this website, who met through wrestling, lift each other up. Can we do that for Daniel now?
Things are not well. I am not well. This week is showing me how pointless my entire life has been.

Great article. Agree with the Nyla point.

But it's also amazing to me how Mariah May and Blake Monroe don't even seem like the same person. Even now, she looks like a total bad ass in that picture. As the kids say, she has aura.

Now? Nothing. It's so weird. AEW just made her look amazing.
AEW's in a great place, with a lot of Year One talent thriving.

However, there's one who hasn't been on television much, if at all, in 2025.

Here's why I think Nyla Rose belongs back on AEW programming.

Why Nyla Rose Should Return to AEW TV
Nyla Rose has been off AEW TV for some time. In 2025, much has changed, which is enough reason for her to return to live programming.

If Big Pedo gives another talk claiming prices are low, even his cult will eventually say, "the eff it is?" Right?

The other stuff can be turned into conspiracies for idiots...crime, false signatures, pizza parlors, etc. But two boxes of Triscuits and package of cheese sticks shouldn't cost $23.
Trump on radio this morning: “We have no inflation. Prices are down on just about everything. Prices are way down on energy.”

The anti-fascism rant at the start of the @sdsumopod.bsky.social this week was freaking great. Just excellent takes. AEW fans: if you aren't already, this is a GREAT weekly listen.

I'm excited to see how Fletcher does in his obligatory 'rising young talent isn't quite there yet' AEW Men's Championship match. Loved MJF/Mox 1 (minus weird political storyline to get there) back in the day and Scapegoat/BD last year at All Out.

But agreed, that 4-way is going to be special!
Alright guys, we gotta start talking about AEW now so we can repopulate the feeds with our wrestling fun. 😂

So.... what are you most looking forward to at All Out?!

For me, I'm ALL IN on the AEW Women's Championship 4-way.

Toni Storm, Thekla, Jamie Hayter, and Kris Statlander? Sign me the F UP!!!

The AEW feeds are fixed. Let's get into last night's excellent (best ever?) Collision. I have many thoughts.

1) I love that we all agree TK booked this show at a wedding.

2) I'm 100% invested in this DG/Mox stuff. Mox's philosophical question about what does he have that they seek? BRILLIANT.
September 7, 2025 at 8:14 PM
So basically this week's AEW Collision was Dynamite. And this week's Dynamite was Collision.

I love both shows, so that's not intended to be an insult.

TK keeping us on our toes and booking a madcap episode whilst at a wedding. Sure. Why not?
September 7, 2025 at 3:45 PM
Rare week where the announced AEW Collision card looks like a Dynamite card. Love it.

I love the littlest reactions during interviews.

Sometimes it's one person in the background of a faction promo, putting emphasis on a point (Chuck Taylor in Best Friends)

How about the interviewer's body language / facial expression? Renee is great of course, but watching Lexi figure it out...

It is amazing to me how effortlessly cool Kip Sabian and Penelope Ford look. Just such bad asses. Glad to see them getting some shine this year in AEW!

I would have said the Big Swole / Britt Baker feud leading to the dentist office match, but I saw that getting love on here the other day. So others evidently remember that too.

Those two were consistently hilarious together. AEW knows how to do comedy feuds that lead to violence very well.
What minor or unheralded AEW moment lives rent free in your head?

For me, it’s Lance Archer destroying poor Marko Stunt in the pandemic era. Just so menacing.

I consume bsky through @andy.wrestlejoy.com’s AEW Community feed, but I’ve muted so many terms that annoy me (r*tings, B*lly, anything E related) I‘m often ignorant to the latest thing upsetting we brilliant Sickos. Makes the feed light some days.

Instead of taking the rage bait, let’s play a game:

You know what's more fun than talking about AEW ratings? Talking about literally everything else. Talk about what you like about wrestling. Talk about the storylines.

I understand the tendency to want to defend a product you love, but I beg of you: Stop overreacting to everything.
September 5, 2025 at 2:58 PM
I will preface this by saying I am old and watch AEW with my nine year old daughter, but let's cool it on all the f bomb chants eh? We are wittier than that.

I have a hard enough time justifying to my wife why I let my impressionable child watch violent gummy bear matches.
September 4, 2025 at 11:17 PM
I have an AEW conundrum: I want the women to get a Blood + Guts match for the symbolism of them getting said match.

That said, I don't like Blood + Guts as a concept and think all of them have been underwhelming.

I vote we come up with a NEW multi-person hardcore match and let the women have it.

This is very true. One criticism of AEW and some of y’all act like you were called to battle against the devil. Someone leaves AEW? Evil. Someone in AEW isn’t happy? Evil. A fan isn’t happy with AEW? Evil. Let’s slow it down and breathe yall.
I love the aew fandom community on bluesky but I also remember how bent out of shape this place got about Deonna making an extremely mild AND FUNNY joke about not being used much in aew and I just, I think we've gotta give folks grace about not being here

I for one can't wait to be lectured about how 'celebrating someone's death is immoral' by all the people who've spent the last two decades dehumanizing all the 'others.'

When it happens, his sycophants will just Weekend at Bernie's that shit anyway.

Alas, I must put the Daughter Mortos to bed. The #ROH championship matches will have to wait.

This has been a GREAT show. Feels like the right mix of peaking young talent (Lee M) and new faces/acts learning from the legends/vets that don't have a logical spot in AEW right now (Lethal, Kingdom, etc)

To be fair, Sammy as the douchey mouthpiece to LFI would be fun. #roh

I don't know what's happening to me. I feel weirdly disappointed it wasn't Jericho. Do I...want him back? Or do I just miss the simpler days of Le Sex Gods and Judas?
