Devastating blow to AEW and Tony Khan

A report has just come in about one of AEW's recent shows, indicating that the promotion has faced another setback. Unfortunately, there was a significant decline in viewership and ratings for last week's episode of Collision.

The show featured several major matches and segments, including a face-to-face encounter between Toni Storm and Kris Statlander leading up to AEW WrestleDream. Other matches showed the Death Riders compete in trios action, and The Don Callis Family show off the great number of stars within their faction, as they were featured in two trios contests.

Programming Insider just reported on the viewership and ratings for this week's Saturday show. Unfortunately, there was an 8.9% drop in viewership, from 248,000 to 226,000. Their ratings in the P18-49 demographic also fell from 0.05 to 0.03. These numbers don't include the numbers from those who watch on MAX.

Is Triple H getting overconfident? Here are the signs!

Growing up, Enzo admired former world champions like AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, Bryan Danielson, Triple H, and Randy Orton for their finishing moves. As an adult, he started to appreciate their character work, as they juggled between heel and babyface gimmicks.

If allowed to produce one final storyline involving his idols, he would have Orton lock horns with John Cena, would be their one last big feud as both of them seem to be approaching the tail end of their careers.

Other than pro wrestling, Enzo enjoys keeping up with Basketball, Football, and Formula One. He also loves watching films, playing video games, and listening to music.
