[7.0] "This was a strong show, way better than last week's Collision: Moxley vs. Andretti was decent. Roderick Strong had a great backstage promo. Statlander vs. Renegade was short but pretty good. Jade Cargill's return does not excite me at all, she got a huge pop but I'm not a fan of her work. She can't wrestle, she can't a promo without saying the baddest bitch or the real deal, she can't a good story in the ring and I don't like her. BCG vs. Gravity, Dios del Inframundo & Aerostar was bad. BCG were fantastic as usual but the mexicans delivered bad perfomances and the match was short so they couldn't actually do anything. Probably this has to do with Jay White's absence from the show, maybe they changed plans at the last minute and didn't have much to work with. Cj Perry's promo was probably the best promo of her carrer and Dark Order's package video was great. Fenix vs. Angelico was short and wasn't anything special. Allin vs. Strong was a banger, best match of the night and best match of the tournament so far. Danielson/Starks angle was really good: I like the involvement of Moxley and Big Bill and Zack Sabre Jr vs. Bryan Danielson is the dream match we were all waiting for. Also Moxley vs. Starks sounds like a good match. Penta vs. Joe was a solid main event, both men delivered good perfomances and the table spot near the end was awesome. Overall: not a perfect show but a solid one with some nice matches and good promos."

[7.0] "A solid if unspectacular episode of Collision that was buoyed by strong promos and pre-tapes (e.g., Danielson/Starks and CJ Perry/Miro) as well as the Roderick Strong vs Darby Allin match (which was a great TV match with a logical in-ring story that pushed angles forward for both wrestlers). With the exception of Strong/Allin, the matches were hurt by an indifferent Cleveland crowd that wasn't engaging with the performances. This was especially true for the first hour."

"Comms on Collision seem to get worse every week. It's bad enough that Nigel still hasn't broken his WWE conditioning but KK seems completely uninvested half of the time and I never need to hear another goddamn Bizarro World line on AEW programming. Especially when it's for (checks notes) Jon Moxley being cheered in his hometown. Quality picked up when they brought out JR for the main event, so it might just be that Nigel and KK have negative chemistry. Also evidenced by the improvement during the weeks Riccaboni subbed in."

[6.0] "Solid if predictable episode. I prefer at least ONE match that isn't a foregone conclusion, which was not the case here. Also not excited for the return of Jade. Was hoping she would do a run in Japan to improve her in ring work, but that appears to not be in the cards."

[6.0] "It was a disappointing Collision that felt too similar to Dynamite without the parts that make Dynamite good. The first 4 matches were literally nothing and completely random which made me feel like I was watching Rampage. Only when Roddy vs Darby started was when it started to get better, but even the main event was nothing great."

[7.0] "A good show, in the continuity of Dynamite and Rampage while keeping its identity, you add a decent opener and a very good wrestling match just before a good main event and you have a very solid show. Makes you want to watch Dynamite and being there the next week for Collision."

[6.0] "A pretty decent episode of Collision. Something about these episodes especially the way the first 4 matches were booked made me start thinking oh no its Collision going to be the new rampage. Moxley vs Andretti no build no story just go out and have a long match who cares, but apparently tough guy moxley now is going to start accumulating injuries like OC when he held the belt so it will be interesting to see how far he takes his reign. Kris vs Robyn Renegade has no story to it but at least it was short and got to the point and made Kris look strong the way a champion should, capped off with an electrifying Jade Cargill return that actually got me hyped to see how this Jade vs Kris feud turns out, as one of the few who actually genuinely like Jade and find that she fits her her over the top gimmick so well it doesnt even matter how green she is in the ring, and that finisher looks great. The Tournament matches were solid albeit VERY predictable from the start and I would of liked other talents making up this bracket but Strong Vs Allin was extremely exciting and both talents still looked good... maybe a bit overbooked and could of done without the AgR Fox and Nick Wayne spot at the end but kept people on the edge of their seat a bit so it was nice. The main event did everything it needed to do and while I will say it seems the quality of these Collision shows have dropped there is two really solid matches to end this one and that is something you haven't been able to say for some of these episodes."

[7.0] "First hour was moving at too fast a pace, rattling off decent match after decent match, without giving them all time to breathe. Once the 2nd house hit, the show slowed down and focused in. Darby vs Roddy and Penta vs Joe kicked ass, and that Danielson right in between was made up a nice delectable sandwich of weekly wrestling television. The return of Jade Cargill was also very cool. Like Dynamite, this Collision felt like it had a sense of direction, but at the same time, settling down in 2nd hour and keeping its identity. Hopefully the next episodes going for are just more consistent and better paced throughout the whole show"

[8.0] "This was a really good episode, although some of the unique Collision feel seems to be gone. We opened with a very good match between Jon Moxley and Action Andretti. I had concerns about Mox holding the International title but his matches with AR Fox and now Andretti have put them to rest. Next we got Kris Statlander battling Robyn Renegade in a decent little match that really only served to set up the underwhelming return of Jade Cargill. We then got Bullet Club Gold taking on Aero Star, Gravity, and Dios Del Inframundo in trios action. This was good, but too short to allow the luchadores to get much in. Rey Fenix then took on Angelico in a surprisingly ground based match. I enjoyed the change on what was expected from these two. Next, Darby Allin faced Roderick Strong in the match of the night. This was very good, and they have me interested in where the storylines are heading. Finally, we had Samoa Joe defeating Penta El Zero Miedo in another very good match that unfortunately, felt a little flat after the previous match."

[6.0] "A more cohesive show than many Collisions in that it effectively tied into AEW rather than being on an island to itself. The first hour left a lot to be desired and the repetitive booking in the form of tournaments and open challenges is getting to be overkill."

[7.0] "A really good episode of Collision, it feels like a brand new start for the show, and also a statement for the direction they're going. Moxley vs Andretti was a good opener; Statlander vs Robyn was good, but a little short; Claudio and Eddie interview / segment was awesome; BCG vs the Luchadores was good. Lana / CJ Perry promo was maybe the best of her career, it got me hooked; Fenix vs Angelico was solid. The FTR open challenge was a little unnecessary; Allin vs Strong was the MOTN; good to see Keith Lee back; Danielson vs ZSJr is going to be a banger, but I thought that the rivalry with Starks was over; and the Main Event was really good as well."

[8.0] "A very strong episode capping off an excellent week for AEW. I enjoyed the story threads running through all of AEW TV this week and that is something they need to keep up as it makes me tune for the whole show. Like Dynamite, the highlights of this show were the stories and promos rather than the wrestling. They have followed up an excellent show in All Out just like they should."

[7.0] "Probably the best pro-wrestling show this whole week (09/04/23 - 09/10/23), starts out with Mox vs Andretti in a good opener.. this is also Cleveland, near Moxs hometown of Cincinnati Ohio. The crowd loves Mox and honestly this crowd was fire the whole night. Next, we get an average Kris Statlander match but then after the match Jade Cargill makes her return and it seems like shes coming back for the TBS title as she attacked Statlander. The third match on the card is a tag match I saw earlier in the week in the promotions and was excited to see Metalik but he wasnt there and it seems like they cut the participants down which stinks but other than that it was a stellar tag match. Rey Fenix was next as he defeated Angelico in a decent match this match could have been on Rampage tho and had Hardy vs Samoa Joe on this show but it is what it is. Roderick Strong and Darby Allin have the best match on the show easily and the best match of the whole week easily I would give it 4 stars them boys know how to put on a match for the PEOPLE! We then get to a Bryan Danielson promo mentioning that he will have to retire within the next year and challanges Zach Sabre Jr to a match at WrestleDream. Fire promo from Bryan here per usual and Ricky coming out made sense and he cut a good promo as well. Lastly, we have Samoa Joe vs Penta in another AEW World Title Eliminator match and this wasnt as good as Roddy vs Darby earlier but it was damn good, I think the problem with Joe is you know when hes gonna win and you know when hes gonna lose lol atleast his booking has been that way since the Darby matches. Overall, good show like I said best pro wrestling show this week from either AEW, Impact, or WWE. Good job AEW, good job Cleveland!"

"Decent enough show. Wrestling was good, especially Darby vs. Roderick Strong. They had a barnburner. I do have problems with the booking however. Why does every champion now do an open challenge now? Why do we still need pointless squash matches? People don't pay to see established stars like Kris Statlander squash nobodies, they wanna see established stars wrestle other stars. I also didn't like Mox going 50/50 with Action Andretti who is just another talented guy on a bloated roster with talented guys who can do his shit but better. Anyways, If I had to give it a rating I'd go 7/10. I personally will miss CM Punks presence on this show but they have such a deep talent roster that the quality will not suffer too much."

[9.0] "Super fun show. Highlights include CJ Perry's video package, the Starks/Big Bill vs. Danielson/Moxley angle (which I'm now guessing will lead to Starks vs. Moxley at WrestleDream or Grand Slam), the announcement of Danielson vs. Sabre Jr. at WrestleDream, pretty solid matches across the board, and an absolute ripper in Allin vs. Strong. Now that the Punkverse has collapsed, Collision felt way less divorced from the rest of the product this week. Some will call that a negative, but for me, this was best balanced episode to date."

[9.0] "The recent show was nothing short of spectacular, marking a notable departure from the days of the old Collision, epitomized by the classic "go cry me a river." The Matches have shed their predictability, injecting a thrilling dose of excitement into the arena, exemplified even in the ACTION ANDRETTI match, despite the occasional botches every 5 seconds. The six-man tag match proved to be an absolute highlight, and Bullet Club Gold is undoubtedly the beacon guiding AEW's television future. The tournament matches themselves did not disappoint either, delivering intense and captivating action. The ongoing storyline involving Christian, Darby, Nick, and Ar Fox adds layers of intrigue to the narrative. However, it was the main event that stole the show, surpassing all expectations. Penta El Zero Miedo and Samoa Joe, two iconic figures in the world of Pro Wrestling, displayed their legendary prowess, leaving the audience in awe. This show was a true testament to the ever-evolving and exhilarating world of professional wrestling."
