Wrestling Observer Live: New WWE titles, AEW Collision, rookie classes

I am back with the Sunday edition of Wrestling Observer Live, available for website subscribers below or for YouTube subscribers above.

I give my thoughts on the passing of the Iron Sheik last week, his legacy, and what he meant to professional wrestling.

On Friday’s WWE SmackDown, The Bloodline story took another turn as The Usos and Solo Sikoa all seem to be at odds with each other after Jey Uso lost in his United States title shot opportunity. I talk about where this whole story is headed and a possible scenario that could lead this in a new direction.

The debut of AEW Collision is this coming Saturday and we now have a main event featuring CM Punk and FTR vs. Jay White, Juice Robinson and Samoa Joe. I go over the scenarios and possible matches we could get out of this one match.

Since Collision is only being shown on the TSN+ streaming service, how does this affect ticket sales for the AEW Canadian tour this summer?

Plus, what was the best rookie class in wrestling, UFC double champion Amanda Nunes retires, new titles in WWE, and more.
