CM Punk recently lead a talent meeting at an AEW Collision taping.
Since the announcement of AEW Collision, there has been talk of it being an alternative within AEW for Dynamite. The show has been on the air for a number of weeks now, and Collision certainly has accomplished that with it’s own exclusive stars along with a different feel in general on the show.
Fightful Select reports that CM Punk lead a talent meeting backstage at the July 8th taping of Collision.
There was a talent meeting ahead of the July 8 episode of AEW Collision that we’ve learned more about. When Fightful heard that there was a talent meeting at that episode of Collision, we shortly found out later that it didn’t make its way to talent who weren’t there or are typically featured on Dynamite more than Collision. There was a good reason for that it seems, as a large part of the meeting was about how Collision has differentiated itself from Dynamite, to the point to where many of Dynamite’s usual detractors have taken to liking Collision. CM Punk led the meeting, and there were several topics brought up on how Collision could separate itself from what fans see on Dynamite, including the finishes of some matches. They went over what was and wasn’t good for collision, such as finishes, shenanigans and the like. There were also subjects covered such as promoting AEW related projects and shows more, especially the Fight Forever video game. Some of the safety guidelines were also covered during the meeting.

We will have to wait and see how Collision will continue to differentiate from Dynamite in the coming weeks.
