AEW has announced a new television show, and it is named Collision. It is going to air on the TNT channel. Tony Khan officially announced on Wednesday that Collision would start on 17 June. Previously, CM Punk was going to be the official face of the Collision. But they did not announce him in the press release. CM Punk still has issues with AEW, and there are no signs that they are going to be resolved in time.

A disagreement between Punk and AEW left CEO Tony Khan no choice but to bring someone else on board. According to the new reports, AEW has hired a top star from WWE to help with their backstage creative team for Collision.

According to the report from Fightful:“Bryan Danielson will be contributing in creative for the Collision brand, according to sources familiar with the situation. Danielson had previously helped out in this capacity during his WWE run as well, especially when he was sidelined. Those that we spoke to that worked with him had great things to say about his demeanor in WWE when helping.”

The inclusion of Bryan on the creative team is to bring fresh perspectives and innovative ideas about AEW’s Collision brand.

“Tony Khan, Pat Buck, Will Washington, Sonjay Dutt and QT Marshall comprise the team that largely are set to put together the shows, with Marshall and Dutt contributing heavily. Jerry Lynn, Dean Malenko Christopher Daniels are all often providing creative input. As outlined in the Observer last week, Kenny Omega, Young Bucks, Jon Moxley, FTR, CM Punk all have heavy input into their own programs.”

Nevertheless, AEW aims to usher in a new era that goes toe to toe with WWE programming with this new television program.
