CM Punk is planned for Collision.

There was some confusion among fans regarding tonight's episode of Collision that is being taped in Hamilton, Ontario. CM Punk wasn't announced publicly for the show, but we're told he was set to be there and perform in some capacity. This has always been the plan as best we've heard.

As Fightful Select reported a this Spring, there will be times when AEW runs Dynamite and Collision on back-to-back nights as they'll get good deals on the building running it consecutively.

Thought it was due to a Canadian holiday?

Nothing will help kill ratings faster than a taped show.

Wow great a taped collision. The rating will be even worse.

Kinda silly to think the main character of the show wouldn't be there when they're still trying to get off the ground. I was wondering why someone shows were on Thursday when announced, totally makes sense though a good deal is a good deal.

It's not about the rating number, it's the interest in the product. I for one have significantly less for a taped show. Nothing of consequence will happen because if it does it will be spoiled online.

If they don't do it every other taping it will be fine. I'm guessing they were scrambling to find venues after the fact and Saturdays are fairly booked up last minute for venues.

It’s 2023. Not even tnt Cares about ratings. There is no room for rating growth while everyone keeps cutting cords and the ratings data gathering are archaic. Aew has had 800k plus viewers every week for 4 years. It’s not changing. It doesn’t need to.

Lol the ppv showed them Canadian crowds don't care for Punk so they didn't bother advertising him for a Canada show

Hogan-esque ne penses tu-pas?
