Does you think AEW moving collision to Thursday with be a permanent thing?

I think it will be something that is heavily considered when the WBD NBA rights are up. AEW seems to like weekends, and the crossover opportunities that it provides. They've done well with big sports lead ins.

Hi Sean, what are your thoughts on Chris Jericho’s contract coming up and rumors that he may return to WWE? I’m worried that him leaving could be a deathblow for AEW. Not only did he give AEW instant credibility in their early years, but he’s also been their biggest cheerleader in the media all this time (despite the fanbase turning on him). If he goes back to WWE, I’m afraid it might give the impression that AEW is a sinking ship.

I don't think Chris Jericho's future has any bearing on the perception of AEW, unless he does a lot of interviews completely burying AEW. He seems to understand right now is a good time for him to take time off. I also don't think he's imminently retiring and is just keeping his options open.

current favorite move in wrestling?

My favorite move will always be a good old fashioned finisher DDT. Speedball's wheel kick is a personal favorite of mine, and Kevin Owens' Package Piledriver.

In your travels, have you ever had a hotel bed so hard you couldn't sleep?

Yes. But thankfully at home I use HELIXSLEEP.COM/FIGHTFUL!!! Ad aside, I seriously love it and can't sleep on hotel beds very well. Hotel pillows suck.
