Not watching live, but sort of related I saw someone speculate that Dynamite and Collision could be a PWG vs ROH type of deal where Saturdays are more down to earth, keeping kayfabe type of wrestling show, where as Dynamite remains super goofy with no regard for kayfabe

How is Dynamite super goofy with no regard to kayfabe?

There's a few goofy characters but it's a more serious wrestling show than anything WWE puts out.

Not really what I said but his lack of wrestling skill is pretty similar.

Jungle Boy challenging Sanada is very underwhelming imo. The IWGP World Champion should be facing a bigger name.

I mean it isn't a big name but it kind of works out well for both companies and it will be an awesome match. It is also likely 3 matches down the card regardless of who you put up against Sanada. Sanada is mostly a complete unknown to NA audiences, he has been beating down younger opponents lately. They seem to be teasing a heel turn with JB with him needing a title this year and coming up short each time. They will put on one hell of a match and it will work booking wise coming out of the match for both companies/wrestlers as JB can progress the heel turn and Sanada can gain a foothold in North America that he doesn't have right now.

That's off the top of my head, might be forgetting some.

A byproduct of Jay White’s early booking: Juice Robinson looks like a star. He does the wild man gimmick well. The way he screams “Ricky” (not in this promo) makes me laugh every time.

I wish they would have left it BCG/Gunns vs Hardy Bros + Ricky Stark and one other guy like All Ego Ethan Page or Brother Zay.

I like FTR but I'm already sick of CM Punk and he's been back a week.

Good points. I do think it'll be a good match.
 
TK had his media call today. Two things that stood out to me is he said he has had conversations with Goldberg about coming to AEW and that the idea of Collision on Saturday night came right down from the top of WBD with him saying Zaslav pitched it.
 
Well, considering that Dynamite consistently does top 5 for its night and sometimes for the entire week in the key demo, WBD is right to want more performing content.

As a performer - no thank you. Also, he doesn't strike me as being a wealth of knowledge that could mentor any talent who seeks to hear the thoughts of former wrestler. I could be wrong, wouldn't be the first time, maybe he would be an asset behind the scenes. Going back to the first point, there is no need for Goldberg to wrestle in 2023 for any point in the future, especially in AEW.

Forbidden Door looking good.

Did not expect Punk/Kojima to be a match on the card. I feel like that's the most random match, but it could be fun. I only know Kojima with his match against Mox at All Out and I thought it was really good.

Roddy/Joe first round matchup in the Owen Cup :O

Was planned to be Punk-KENTA but apparently neither of them wanted that match.

Goldberg seems really popular in Toronto and it will be cool if he makes an appearance. I don't think a one match appearance would be bad as long as he loses.

Or have him defeat someone that is not a future player. I loved how they used him against Ziggler a few years ago. That Goldberg win hurts nobody and just led to a great crowd reaction. I think it's fine to use him like that, as long as he's not beating guys like MJF or Wardlow.
