While Collision's premiere was an extremely strong show, one noticeable element was that absolutely nothing has been lined up for the next Collision offering.
It's becoming somewhat of a running joke, but AEW programming will so often feature an exacerbated Excalibur running through countless announcements where it pertains to the next Dynamite, Rampage, or PPV. The point being, AEW has made a fantastic habit of letting its audience know what matches and segments they can see on upcoming programming.
For this coming week, we know what's set for AEW Dynamite and AEW Rampage, but not a single thing has been announced for AEW Collision. Where's the hook for next week's Collision? Where's that tentpole match or promo that's going to have us counting the days until next Saturday?
Of course, not every segment of every show needs to be advertised ahead of time. Still, this just felt very out of tune to AEW's usual approach.
