Nigel McGuinness surprisingly references WWE Hall of Famer on AEW Collision
AEW commentator Nigel McGuinness hilariously referenced a WWE Hall of Famer in the middle of one of the matches that took place tonight on Collision. This would be Hulk Hogan.
Tonight, The Outrunners faced off against Top Flight for a spot in the Four-Way match at Full Gear for the AEW World Tag Team titles.
At one point in the match, Turbo Floyd was left in the middle of the ring with Dante Martin. It seemed that no matter what shots Martin tried landing, this fired up Turbo as he simply flexed his muscles and hit him back with an array of punches.
It is no secret that the duo referenced Hulk Hogan and all the popular wrestlers of his era. Nigel McGuinness from the commentary desk took advantage of this moment as he suddenly began quoting the lyrics to Hogan's iconic theme song. Tony Schiavone had to stifle a laugh as he understood the reference.
"You know what they say, when it comes crashing down and it hurts inside," Nigel said.
In the end, Turbo Floyd and Truth Magnum came out on top, and they are the first of Private Party's challengers at AEW Full Gear. The other two tag teams will be determined next week.
