According to a report from Pwinsider, the FTR vs. Bullet Club Gold match on AEW Collision was produced and coached by Ari Daivari. The match, which went for nearly an hour, has been universally praised backstage.
Pat Buck has reportedly moved from AEW’s Talent Relations department to a new assignment as VP of Talent Coaching. Sources indicated that the shift is part of a larger change to install dedicated coaches for each individual AEW brand, overseen by Buck, who reportedly was part of the onboarding efforts for Daivari, Sarah Stock, and others.
Certain individuals were spotted backstage at AEW Collision, including Martha Hart’s family. Chris Benoit’s son, David Benoit, was also in attendance and seated ringside during the show.

The Acclaimed has a busy week ahead of them, with two back-to-back challenges in front of them.
Following a loss to House Of Black at Double Or Nothing 2023, Anthony Bowens, Max Caster, and Billy Gunn will return to challenge for the AEW World Trios Championship on the July 22nd episode of AEW Collision.
In addition, The Acclaimed will answer a challenge from QTV on Friday’s episode of AEW Rampage. Whether the confrontation will be part of the Royal Rampage matchup or a separate match altogether is yet to be determined.
Yo!#TheAcclaimed have accepted QTV’s challenge and will face them next Friday at #RoyalRampage!
