Speaking on a recent edition of his “What Happened When” podcast, AEW broadcaster Tony Schiavone reflected on his promo segment with CM Punk and Ricky Starks on AEW Collision this past Saturday.
Punk and Starks will do battle for the real AEW World Championship on AEW Collision this week. WWE Hall of Famer Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat will serve as the special guest referee. Schiavone said,
“You’re not gonna be able to beat me and CM Punk and Ricky Starks this last Saturday. That has to go down as one of my favorite ones. I really enjoyed that. I loved it, loved the whole segment. I loved that segment, and I loved that segment the week before, when we established that tag team match. But I loved the stuff I did with Britt, when we did the thing with getting our nails done. I liked all of that stuff, working with her. But I really think that that segment Saturday night was one of favorites, if not my favorite of all time, me being a part of it.”
On “The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy” podcast, Matt Hardy stated that there is a ‘good idea’ for a match with Jeff Jarrett when AEW hits Nashville on August 16. The Hardys, along with Brother Zay and Ethan Page, have been feuding with Jarrett’s faction in recent weeks. Matt said,
“I 100% will be in Nashville I will be there and ready to rock and roll. I know there’s a really good idea on the table that might happen there, considering we’re in a little bit of a program with Jeff Jarrett and his cronies. So, we’ll see what happens.”
