Episode 192 – Comic-Con Controls Collision

With a chunk of the AEW Roster hanging out with Galactus at Comic Con, AEW Collision digs deep to bring you unique match ups, $400,000 for those who decided to stick around and fight for it, and a pretty damn solid ROH Women’s Championship match for your main event. Johnny Taylor (The Hard Times) along with his horror host pals Diana Prince (The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs), and “legendary” luchador, Gringo Fantastico (Fantastico Disasterpiece Theatre), are here to bring you the highlights of the night and the headlines of the week. Will Drew McIntyre make it home for Christm...er Summerslam? Will Mercedes Moné’s torso collapse from Ultimo Dragon syndrome? Find out our opinions and hot takes on this episode of the AEW-Some Pod!

The trio of Diana Prince (aka Darcy the Mail Girl from The Last Drive-In), Johnny Taylor (stand-up comedian, Bummin’ with the Devil on Tubi), and Gringo Fantastico (masked lucha veteran, Fantastico Disasterpiece Theater) dive into AEW Dynamite’s chaos buffet: Hangman nearly hangs Yuta, FTR cheats into the next round, Ospreay’s injured but vengeful, Athena fakes a cash-in, Okada jumps Swerve, and MJF gets dropped by the Hurt Syndicate—and roasted by Mark Briscoe. Plus: reflections on the passing of wrestling icon Hulk Hogan. It was a week of filled with Cowboy justice, neck trauma, and tag team treachery—served with reverence, rage, and rapid-fire wit.

The AEWSome Pod trio of Johnny Taylor ("Bummin' with the Devil" on Tubi), Diana Prince (Shudder's "The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs), and Gringo Fantastico ("Fantastico Disasterpiece Theatre" on Troma Now) are back and it's time to cover AEW Grand Slam Mexico and Collision in a super double punch episode consisting of a moving Spanish speaking Hangman promo, Noir Toni Storm knockout declarations, and multi-man tag matches that necessitated reinforced rings! MJF gets nuclear heat with the Mexico crowd and Mistico gives a display of what he means to his homeland, along with all the luchadors you can handle! Join the team for their hot takes on apparently hot posteriors, and hot action!

AEW-some Pod Ep. 182: 4 hours of Fyter Fest madness, 1 podcast to rule them all! Diana Prince (The Last Drive-In), Johnny Taylor (The Hard Times), and Gringo Fantastico (Disasterpiece Theater) break it all down — from Hangman saving Ospreay, to Omega/Okada’s brawl, MJF’s supreme dickery, FTR cheating like pros, Toni Storm’s steak dinner, Thekla’s creepy debut, and more. Plus: Hero, Dick & Match of the Week. If AEW threw it at us, we caught it (and suplexed it).

This week on The AEW-some Pod, comedian Johnny Taylor Jr., horror host Diana Prince (aka Darcy the Mail Girl), and lucha wildcard Gringo Fantastico unpack an episode of Dynamite that actually delivered across the board. Hangman gets introspective, Swerve gets accusatory, and Ospreay tries to keep the peace like a man who’s really tired of fighting his friends. Meanwhile, Josh Alexander cements his place as AEW’s most punchable man, and Brody King just punches him. We also get blood, brawls, Thekla out of nowhere, and a Trios squash so one-sided it barely qualified as cardio. And yes—Mercedes and Toni Storm finally go face-to-face in a promo that’s part dream match, part power trip, and just suggestive enough to make the internet weird about it.

Double or Nothing happened and the AEW-Some Pod Crew is here to bring our takes to the table. Johnny is MIA this week so horror hosts Diana Prince (The Last Drive-In on Shudder) and Gringo Fantastico (Fantastico Disasterpiece Theatre on Troma Now) tag in Brock Lesnar Guy (Michael Daniel) to help out with the antics! Diana and Michael were in attendance for the big event and give a live event reaction to the chaos that unfolded at the PPV. Gringo rejoices in the fact that he was right about the results of the main event! Boy did Swerve give a stapler display after getting a back alley tongue piercing! Were the trio moved or unmoved? Listen and find out!
