Tony Khan, the mastermind behind All Elite Wrestling (AEW), has once again kept fans on the edge of their seats as he unveiled the commentary team for the highly anticipated launch of AEW’s new Saturday show, “Collision.” With just a single day remaining before the program’s debut, Khan took to Twitter to finally reveal the names that will grace the broadcast desk tomorrow night.
Stepping into the role of play-by-play announcer for “Collision” will be none other than Kevin Kelly, a seasoned veteran who has long been the recognizable voice of NJPW (New Japan Pro-Wrestling). Kelly’s extensive experience and expertise in the world of professional wrestling commentary make him a fitting choice for this prominent role.
Joining Kelly on color commentary will be Nigel McGuinness, whose presence on the “ROH on Honor Club” broadcasts has been highly regarded since his reintroduction at this year’s Supercard of Honor. McGuinness brings a wealth of knowledge and a unique perspective to the table, enhancing the viewing experience for fans.
And finally, Jim Ross, the legendary commentator, will be providing his “expert analysis” as the third member of the booth
