AEW Collision has now been on the air for two months, and the show has been a breath of fresh air for AEW fans and those on the roster.
Along with feeling different from Dynamite, it has allowed more names to shine on the show, such as Ricky Starks, who main evented last week’s episode of the show against CM Punk for the ‘Real’ AEW World Championship.
The match saw AEW announcer and WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross return to commentary on the show for the first time since the debut episode of Collision due to health reasons.
JR spoke about the differences backstage between the two shows on his Grilling JR podcast, where he said the atmosphere is ‘a lot calmer’ than Dynamite.
He said:
“The atmosphere at Collision, in my opinion, is entirely different than the mindset and the atmosphere at Dynamite. There’s less people, less crew, less talents, so it’s a lot calmer. I think the talents have more time to work their matches out. It’s just a different atmosphere, and it’s a good atmosphere. Always fun. Good seeing the talents. We got a good crew going.
“I think Punk and Tony Khan pretty much put that roster together, and I like it. That’s good talents. They’re motivated. They like the ownership of that show and the fact that they can make a difference, and I think that’s cool. All good, man. I’m looking to it. I enjoy being around the talent.”
