Update On Roster Split Between AEW Dynamite & AEW Collision

In a recent appearance on the Barstool Rasslin’ podcast, AEW President Tony Khan discussed the speculation as to what kind of roster split Dynamite and Collision would invariably have. Khan said,

“I am going to feature certain talent on certain shows, but I haven’t drawn any hard lines or locked us int any kind of split of a roster. I think people are going to be featured on certain shows, but I also think that gives us a great opportunity to showcase certain wrestlers on both Dynamite and Collision at certain times, and certain stories can cross the shows. I think the champions at AEW will be the champions on every show. And frankly, every promotion in the world. We’re not shy about the AEW wrestlers going out and taking on the top stars, top competition, from other companies.”

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter has now provided an update on the matter, noting that Dynamite will generally be led by the Elite and the Blackpool Combat Club, while Collision will be led by CM Punk. Storylines will often extend from one show to the other, and talent will have a presence on both. Additionally, insiders at Warner Bros. Discovery anticipate occasional appearances by CM Punk on Dynamite, during which weeks The Elite/BCC will be featured on Collision.

It is anticipated that, as history shows in similar situations, AEW will likely cease keeping certain individuals apart at some point in the future.
