AEW Collision Playoff Palooza April 26, 2025 - Top Flight vs CRU

Ya idk I can't caring that much over ogk when we have this roster. Living in the past.

It's different, it's Max specific commercials without any Picture in Picture that the cable stations get which kinda sucks. It's especially noticeable when it's a Max movie and they're dropping F Bombs lol

After a week or so when the replay is uploaded as a legit episode it's the triller feed allegedly (I've heard this a lot but never tested it bc I'm never a week behind) lol

This is unless you use the phone app one to put to the TV. Then it's the same ads as TBS/TNT

I never knew this, will see if I can later

I mean it is kind of weird how much they put into the story of getting Kyle, to then completely drop some of the act. Like I agree the rest of the roster is great, and everything. But if they did that to an act I like as much as Smark likes OGK, I would be upset by it also.

Yeah I do this as the transition from show to break to show is way smoother. If I had to deal with the way I was, the bit of a better picture quality wouldn't be worth me using it

 

[Chris]

I'm glad they didn't just become MJF's lackeys, I think that would have sucked and they're actually doing good work as babyfaces and I want to see how much they can do with it. But then they disappeared after until last Thursday where they returned to ROH, don't know if we'll ever find out what that was about now if everything is cool again

Not really , they were always the secondaries or tiercery part of those stories. They were hype men for Cole and were belted in roh, not aew.

I would rather then be a tag in aew as they are phenomenal workers. But we don't know their contract status esp after Mariah left.

I'm not saying smark is wrong to be upset, it's just not a thing I'd ever get hung up on because they were never positioned as anything higher than roh champs or lackeys. And the mjf Cole story has been over for what feels like years now so just got to at some point let it go and move on.

People/characters I care about aren’t interchangeable toys for me. Of course there’s still a great roster left. That doesn’t mean I just move on from the roster that I like just because the company decides that it doesn’t want to use them anymore.

Hell hot take, I liked Kyle more with Briscoe. I have no interest in the Paragon like at all

I like the Conglomeration more too but the fact that also Kyle didn't turn makes it better for me too. I'm tired of the same people turning and feuding just being friends lol

 

[Chris]

I somehow got neither of the dumb turns I was scared of, just had to sacrifice Taven and Bennett for it lol I'm shocked they returned to ROH last week tho, assumed they were done

That bottom part was more so what I cared about. I blame Just waking up and having a headache, but read to me like he shouldn't be upset and everything. But that bottom part cleans it up. Thanks.

That’s part of my problem, though. How they’ve always been relegated. The kingdom were great workers with great characters and a huge ROH history and from the moment they stepped in AEW it was clear Tony never saw them as more than what you’re describing here. I wanted more for them than that and I thought that we were finally gonna get that with the undisputed kingdom and then that just didn’t go anywhere and yes, of course the MJF story needs to be over, but there were legs beyond that and currently Tony doesn’t completely disagree because the other three members of the group are going to continue on.

At this point, I’d be fine if they just carried on as a tag team without Paragon, but I don’t think they have any future left here.

Well no but it feels like you've been hung up on ogk every single time you watch the show and at one point I feel like it's ok to just say oh well and focus on what's in front of you. That's all. It's not like they took away a main eventer and again , we don't know why they aren't off tv either so I don't get being upset with aew when there could be a numbers of factors at play

Yeah, I much prefer people just mutually parting ways and being cool about it. Like partnerships can end respectfully. Doesn't always gotta be someone turning
