SATURDAY NIGHT'S ALL RIGHT FOR FIGHTING... AND VOTING! Another new weekly Poll for AEW Fans as I hopefully can do this most every week, if not, we'll see if I can get some people to fill in some times, Saturday's a more busy day for me, usually, but either way, it's time to see how AEW's second Prime Time two hour show does... it's time to RATE THE COLLISION!
------ 2023
6/17: 7.91 (20% DW)
6/24: 7.92 (16% DW)
7/1: 7.36 (40% DW)
7/8: 8.43 (23% DW) 7/15: TBD

Was gonna include BOTB but decided "Eh", you still can if you like as a total rating, or separate them!

9/10:
The 2/3 falls match was EPIC!! And it should be Jay White’s coming out party in AEW.
Ruby vs. Willow was good. But I am REALLY tired of them booking Ruby as a choke artist. It’s been years AEW, enough!
Punk vs. Starks was good.

9/10.
I really enjoyed the 2/3 falls match and the main event.
I didn’t think Starks would win but glad he got a high profile victory over Punk even if he cheated.
I also liked Ian on commentary more than Kevin Kelly and would like to see more of him in AEW.

Started off strong but was completely down hill after. I mean it's hard to stay on the level BCG/FTR launched at but the drop off was extreme. I'd probably go 8 but for the added benefit of Ian and Nigel it's a 9

Easy 10 for the opener but the rest of the card was really fun.

Probably an 8 again. I thought the FTR/Bang Bang Gang match really went too long but I understood the purpose. Genuinely happy to see Willow win because I don't like Ruby that much compared to Willow as a talent and I loved Ricky/Punk.
Battle of the Belts on the other hand...

8 for Collision.
Can't really argue with anyone who thinks these Battle of the Belts episodes are a waste of time, though.

9.
I can’t say enough good things about the tag match. Jay and Juice are stars imo.
Willow/Ruby was good. I was fine with either winning.
Starks and Punk was good and glad Starks won but I hated that finish. I would’ve probably given it a 10 if not for that.

Went with a 5. Not great but not terrible either. Would of liked to see Punk win but I like Starks so I'm not mad about him winning.

Haven’t finished the full episode, just got through the tag match. I thought it had a lot of great highlights but was unnecessarily long. They could’ve had greater effect in 35-40 minutes rather than 60.
Glad to hear Starks and Willow won the Owens.

I feel like battle of the belts would make more sense as a champions vs champion show. Like ROH vs AEW

8. It was a really good show, but I’m a little miffed that Ricky Starks had to act like a heel, cheat to win, then randomly be a douche to Jushin Liger for some reason. There was no reason he shouldn’t have just gotten the clean win and had Punk shake his hand after the match.

I'd probably go 8 but for the added benefit of Ian and Nigel it's a 9 Pretty much how I felt. The opener was insane and even with the fall off, I was tapped by the second half.

I voted 10. It'd have been a 9, but I am happy enough with Starks and Willow winning that it bumps it up for me. 8. It was a really good show, but I’m a little miffed that Ricky Starks had to act like a heel, cheat to win, then randomly be a douche to Jushin Liger for some reason. There was no reason he shouldn’t have just gotten the clean win and had Punk shake his hand after the match. Probably because, even if they don't turn him heel, they likely want to do a rematch between him and Punk with heat behind it, and a handshake ending precludes that. They also don't want to run Punk as a heel at this juncture, so if he throws a tantrum about losing clean and wants a rematch, it'd make him look like a whiner.

Oh yeah, I understand why it ended that way, it’s just annoying because Ricky is such an awesome face, but he was forced to play heel because Punk had to stay strong. I get it, I just didn’t care all that much for it. Very pumped that Ricky won it though.

8, mainly carried by Willow winning and Punk not winning.
I'm in the minority where I was kinda bored with the tag title match, really didn't need to go half the show.
And the less said about BotB, the better.
