Tony Khan Says AEW Collision On Rock ‘N’ Wrestling Rager At Sea Was A ‘Very Worthwhile Show’
Tony Khan was very happy with AEW Collision on Chris Jericho’s Rock ‘N’ Wrestling Rager At Sea.
The show aired live from the boat on November 7, giving fans a unique show environment once again. AEW first hosted a show on the ship in January 2020, taping an episode of Dynamite that aired the next day.
Speaking to Fightful’s Jeremy Lambert on the AEW Full Gear media call, Tony Khan compared both shows.
“Well, we did it live this time. We did it as a taped show on Tuesday last time and this time was great. I loved doing it as a live show, I much prefer it, I always love doing live wrestling. With a championship change too, it made it very exciting with a big fight feel. The previous trip had a great championship match but since it was a taped show, I felt like a lot of our fans already knew about the championship change before it happened. It was great being able to do the show live this year and it was a great viewership for Collision on the Rock N’ Rager, so that was great to see. It was a very worthwhile show. Those travel things can happen, a lot of times we have people come in the night before. But in this case with the boat docking in the morning, that’s a chance you take.”
Elsewhere in the call, Khan talked about the travel issues that AEW faced for the dual Dynamite/Collision taping on November 11. Check out his full comments by clicking here.
