This week's AEW Collision may not generate much chatter, as the wrestling world will be focused on John Cena's final wrestling match at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event on December 13. However, there is a chance the Jacksonville-based promotion pulls off an exciting title change on Collision. This could be Tony Khan's way of sparking wrestling conversations in his favor, which are otherwise likely to revolve around Cena's farewell.

Last week on SmackDown, Gunther became the Never Seen 17's challenger at SNME after winning the Last Time is Now tournament by defeating LA Knight in the finals. On the latest episode of WWE Raw, The Ring General set the tone for his match with Cena, vowing to make the leader of the Cenation give up, something no other star has achieved. The entire wrestling universe will be buzzing in anticipation of this never-before-seen match. However, it should be noted that the Dec 13 edition of SNME clashes with AEW Collision, which currently features a rather intriguing title match on its card.

The title match in question is Mark Briscoe defending his TNT championship against Daniel Garcia. Many would expect the Sussex County Chicken to retain his title, since his reign has only just begun, and AEW might want to keep the championship on him longer and build it up gradually. However, there is a chance that Tony Khan, as a way to catch some attention, especially with all the eyes on Cena's final match, might book a major title change and have the Red Death dethrone Briscoe with the help of the Death Riders.

AEW President Tony Khan recently heaped praise on John Cena

In a recent conversation with Z100 New York, AEW President Tony Khan revealed how deeply he respects John Cena. Khan stated that although he never met the Last Real Champion, he's always heard that he was an utmost professional and believes him to be the Greatest Of All Time.

"John Cena's an absolutely legendary pro-wrestler who came into the space and became a huge star very quickly on television, because he has so much charisma and he's one of the hardest working people, as far as I know, in pro-wrestling. [H/T: WrestleTalk]

It will be interesting to see whether John Cena wins his final career match against Gunther or if he will decide to put the Ring General over.
