I don't think it's hyperbole when I say that Willow Nightingale is the greatest person to ever exist #aewcollision #wrestlesky

17 different women were featured on #AEWCollision tonight. Including 9 that had multiple segments.

The main event was a full on intergender match with the ladies deciding the match.

Plus Lexy & Alicia

The choreographer of Peacemaker’s opening sequence is married to Alan Tudyk.

I would like to see them on a double date with Toni Storm & Juice Robinson

Yes, coffee shop chicks & white dudes

2020, Sorry for the typo. And yes it was known as Impact at the time but thanks for the pedantry

All AEW episodes. Kenny & others appeared on multiple episodes of Impact and Impact PPVs too.

I assume they are currently streaming on WWE.com

AEW/TNA crossover was fucking awesome. If you missed it go back and watch it. Fall-Winter of 2000. All episodes available on HBOMax.

This is fascinating. Due to the nature of pro wrestling we will probably never get the exact story, but it’s just bizarre.

When in Jacksonville, take advice from Jason Mendoza. #AEWGoodPlace

Theoretically, HBOMax could just stop sending ICE ads to accounts that complained about them

Where are you located? In Colorado we had them a bunch last week & none this week. Other places never had any. Other places keep getting a bunch

MAGA will never understand the full meaning of democracy. "Democracy" isn't just a way of choosing political leadership. It describes an inclusive pluralistic society where everyone has a seat at the table, no matter who they are. The most privileged citizens are no more important than the least.

I think he’s a fantastic booker. I don’t know how you can watch the show and think he’s bad at any aspect of putting on a great wrestling show. Compelling stories & fantastic match ups. Every show

Sticking with those big venues was such a mistake. The quality of the show never dipped for me, but those empty caverns sucked out all the energy. A sold out 1,500 seater is so much better than 2,200 in a 10k

I’m not sure how someone could dislike Tony Khan. He’s a bit awkward at times, but his love for pro wrestling is obvious and there seem to be endless stories about him doing right by the wrestlers.

I don’t understand why Nielsen ratings are even a thing that matters to wrestling journalists.

Streaming & international deals are utterly unknown. I recognize ratings meant a lot 25-30 years ago, but they just don’t now. They’re just content or propaganda, sometimes both.

Fightful Wrestling @fightful.com · 6d

An AEW source told Fightful Select that Tony Khan is well aware of how the Nielsen changes work and is adept at what they mean. As for AEW numbers for HBO Max, those are not reported & the viewership has been kept very quiet.

A LOT more details on this now available for Fightful Select Subscribers!

Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.

Guys. I just had a crazy idea. What if the President DIDN’T deploy troops in American cities. Just a thought. Have we tried that before?

Right wing terrorism is the most dangerous thing in the world today, and it has the entire mechanism of the United States government perpetuating it.

"Fuck ICE" is a patriotic sentiment. Perhaps the most patriotic in this moment.
