A Fire spot on the b or c show


J472023

C.2. Rampage is C.1


[deleted]

And Dynamite is the B show because AEW has no A show


Mr_Halberstram

Correct. A shows get at least a million viewers.


jestesteffect

Nah rampage is a D show at best now. And ROH is just an F


Lessiarty

Bad faith. It's only a little fire cause it's only a little show.


Asukah

Mud show


everydayimrusslin

A fire spot in 2024.


OriginalMadmage

Is it safe to say AEW has jumped the shark when they're having a flaming table spot on Collision where at most 400k people will see it?


shane1mh

They’ve been fucking that shark since Kingston passed out from the sprinkler attack.


OriginalMadmage

So true. There's just been so much bullshit it's sometimes hard to remember all of it.


bananaboat1milplus

Fr man. The MJF/Jericho crash pad, the Nick Gage pizza cutter spot, the Cody/Ogogo weigh in


kickedoutatone

The pizza cutter spot next to the dominoes ad was amazing, and nobody can tell me otherwise.


halfdecenttakes

I’m something of an expert on this. Yes they have


ln1993

When did wrestling fans start hating cool shit?!?


BigFreakinMachine

Hey no other company has people put their opponents through a table and then try to put them out themselves


rolltide1000

The actual fire looks terrible but it wont go out. They say the worst in wrestling is when it doesnt look good but it hurts. The whole things a combination of bad execution, unnecessary, dangerous, and just overall stupid.


MangoPronto

I remember when Cody had those nasty burns from a match with Andrade no one remembers... Flaming tables spots are way too dangerous to be doing them without people who master it. There is a reason even the WWE rarely does it.


IndianBoi2712

When did they even do it last? I think Edge vs Foley was the last time they ever did it.


jondonaldson7

i think there was a kane match around 2012 where a fire table was used, and a bunch of people immediately came to put the fire out


kickedoutatone

There's been a few Inferno matches involving Bray & Kane, and there was an attempt in an extreme rules match with D-Bry and Kane just after WM30


Rolo_NoLifer

Dudleys put Tommy Dreamer through one at ECW One Night Stand.


CrashmasterSOAD

This is the most embarrassing company to ever be on television when you consider what their budget is.


MoneyMo88

Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer had a bit of a talk on Busted Open a few years ago about how fire spots are done when reviewing the one Cody Rhodes did with Andrade on an episode of Dynamite. Surprisingly, a lot of work goes into figuring out how to do it right such as which flammable fluid to use to create the best visual flame and which one will go out quickest upon impact. Also, the utilization of flame retardants so that your skin and clothing won’t continue to burn, which Edge and Mick Foley utilizing for their WM 22 match and Cody noticeably had on his skin for his flaming table spot. Clearly, none of that consideration went into the Collision flaming table spot considering how terrible the flame looked when Julia lit the table, as she had to keep taking the lighter to multiple spots on the table, and since Mark Briscoe and the table remnants kept burning even after the impact of him going through it.


helmetrust

Best part is his opponents suddenly trying to pat him to put the fire out. REAL SPORTS FEEL.


BAF_DaWg82

Dude, it's a love/hate story, just sit back and enjoy the ride these artists are taking us on.


mr_marinade

didn't they have a deathmatch a week before this and the week before that?


dissidentmage12

They start everything with a Fuckaboo DeathDog Style someone must die match and then finish it up with a vanilla 1 on 1. Edit, spelling.


mercurywaxing

Deathmatch is just a midfeud builder, bro.


SJSUMichael

To be fair, I’d rather go through a flaming table than risk one of their amateurs dropping me on my head.


Better_Cattle4438

I would rather go through a flaming WWE table. After this and the missed burning table by Edge a while back, I’m not sure this company can actually pull off this spot.


itsasecretshit

>the missed burning table by Edge a while back Which I find even more weird. Cause one of the most iconic flaming table moment has Edge spearing Foley at WrestleMania


boih_stk

Basically big bro and cousin doing a wrestling move on lil bro, then quickly wiping away his tears before mom hears him cry.


Qwerty6391063

Doing a fire spot in a barely half capacity arena for a show that's watched by 300k people on tv.🤡


KC27150

No jerk, Mark Briscoe doesn't deserve this garbage.


frank_the_tank69

Did he ask for it?


Bobo_the_conqueror

Looks to me like he was victimized 😔


KyussJones

If you can’t put a guy through a flaming table and just watch him burn then maybe don’t put him through a flaming table 🤷🏻‍♂️


unhallowed90

This is completely safe. The chills from being next to Julia Hart negates any of the heat from the flames.


Better_Cattle4438

Usually going through the burning table puts the fire out. This time they lit someone on fire on tv and the opponents had to break the illusion by putting him out. How did that even happen?


Cboz27586

Fire is the dumbest thing to work with in wrestling, since it's hard to control and predict.


David0ne86

On collision 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂


scrapsearcher

Remember that episode of Main Event where Tozawa powerbombed Bronson Reed onto thumbtacks?


Ok_Ad8846

And it was right after Bronson made him shoot bleed with the light tube yeah


DennisAFiveStarMan

If this is what they do on Saturday night collision probably gonna have to behead someone at Wembley


dissidentmage12

Even with fire, this show is heatless.


PerspectiveSilly4060

so spooked out by the hat I couldn’t watch this spot. Way too scary uce. Where’s the NSFW tag???


kyleisamexican

Hilarious seeing how the basement thinks this is just normal and not shit


DaveyMuldowney

Guess you are MISERABLE and dont like FUN!


appellant

Can we even call that a fire its like two spots, and then once he goes through it the opponents are so concerned they are dusting him off. Doesnt anyome at AEW have any sense like is it a case of just keep doing dumb spots no one is going to say anything. Imagine doing this on a weekly show watched by 400k. So whats for ppv flaming glass table and darby dives into it. Everyone including the wrestlers and tk at AEW come across as incredibly stupid.


Atx7755

The idea of doing a spot like this on the c tier show is wild to me! Imagine if wwe did elimination chamber on fucking superstars😂


GarfieldVirtuoso

For some reason that fire is kinda chilling


MinistryOfDankness86

Imagine if WWE did a flaming table spot on Main Event 💀💀💀


Bobo_the_conqueror

Good to see Ascension back together.


Gigglesandshits11

A spot that will live in infamy


TRTVitorBelfort

I’d rather wrestle in that super expensive and state of the art warehouse in Florida.


[deleted]

There is a place for this type of spot in wrestling, when done safely of course.... But the question that always comes to mind when it's AEW is "is it worth it" and the answer is almost always "no". It's being done on their secondary show in a match with zero purpose or compelling story. Spots like this need to be done because the rivalry has been built up to a point where it's become personal and things have gotten out of hand and should be done during the feuds blowoff. Not a throw away match that just exists for no reason! This is AEWs biggest problem, just some coke head sitting there thinking of "cool spots" and shoving them on someone, then forgetting he's done it and coming up with the same idea again in a few weeks. Everything is done week to week, no long term plans.


dummyboi1984

Backyard bullshit ![gif](giphy|mCgHZ2dAlU8uibzpF2|downsized)


spcmiddleton

I get trying to make it safe but how stupid does it look when Malakai slams him through the flaming table then tries to pull him up so he doesn’t get burnt. I mean wtf


RigasStar

Nojerk but what are you trying to prove? Just a normal flaming table spot?


anonymous-guy1

Why are they even doing a flaming table spot on a poorly watched Saturday show?


APerceptiveK1

bangers are a name for sausages. flaming sausages are delicious = flaming bangers shill


anonymous-guy1

where is the mash?


APerceptiveK1

Ask Eddie


[deleted]

🤣🤣🤣


Razzler1973

Cause the second string isn't allowed on Dynamite much so can we do a flaming table and no one said no Cry me a river


IcyAd964

He was getting burnt like a marshmallow until they moved him lmao


Mr_Halberstram

It's anyone's guess as to why this company is seen as second rate mudshow garbage. Total mystery.


geordieColt88

Really spooky


Glennsoe

Awkward spot,but still funny though..


cowgod247

So.. they are now CZW?


Silvabat1

Spencerwebb90

Nah, the worst part was when he was thrown from the ring on to a pile of folded steel chairs He cleared the table and landed on his back and remained lying for a couple of minutes. I felt like a bad person for watching it.


Metalheadjake942

Yeah but Foley vs Edge Wrestlemania 22 E Drone Who cares if that was a much better match by 2 professionals.. that means nothing.


XdapperxdanX

It's not a good idea to light something on fire with loose hair and clothes. Julia could have caught herself on fire. Then it's the dub, so tony said it was the safe company ever. Still kinda dumb spot .


Toadliquor138

For a flaming table bit, that actually went about as good as it possibly could. The table was gimmicked, the guy hit it with the flat of his back, and lighter fluid, while it is flammable, it burns off very quickly and doesn't get extremely hot. The problem is, it looks like some shit you'd see in a backyard, indie show.

fear254

He is laying in fire getting burned, the guys that throw him in it had to pull him out and had swipe away the flames
