AEW Collision will not be airing next Saturday night.
During this week’s edition of AEW Collision, it was announced that the show will be returning on February 24. The show will be pre-empted next week due to TNT’s annual coverage of the NBA All-Star weekend.
On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Swerve Strickland commented on his growing popularity in AEW and why he believes he’s been able to get over. He said,
“It was all about creating an aura about myself that not a lot of people can provide on the show. For me, it was about providing an aura about myself, a look, a feel, and for me, the feel was fear. Tapping in to movies like Hostel. Movies that made you feel uncomfortable, but it was also very real too. It wasn’t too spooky, it was like ‘no this could really happen,’ and that’s a very fearful thought and feeling to have.“
In the main event of this week’s episode of AEW Collision, Orange Cassidy defeated Tomohiro Ishii to retain his International title.
Following the match, the Undisputed Kingdom quickly attacked Cassidy. While Ishii left after the match, he would eventually return to make the save.
