To put all of this in perspective: If the XFL did as well vs the NFL as AEW has against WWE in terms of ratings, attendance ect. the XFL not only is still around it would be way more successful than the old AFL ever was.

BREAKING: AEW Dynamite draws 941,000 viewers, 0.40 in P18-49.

Lowest Wednesday viewership since July 7 and lowest demo rating since July 14.

The downslide continues for Mr. Khan. Every since he embarrassed himself on Twitter, ratings for both shows have gone down the shitter.

lol All the AEW fans threw a victory parade when they beat SmackDown a couple weeks ago in one demographic. Now suddenly they all say "f*** the ratings". Childish fanbase.


Lol "they all". Get out of here, you are so selective to what you reply to. You ignored all the posts that you had no rebuttal to in the other thread.

WWE is the one who feels threatened, they only started screwing with AEW because they started threatening their demos of their main shows. Dynamite has only ever beaten Smackdown in total viewers on weeks where Smackdown was on FS1. Any advertiser will tell you 18-49 is what matters the most and really 18-35. Otherwise this tribal WWE vs. AEW shit is really weird, like that energy is better served arguing on something else even for the internet.

Would love to see a true head to head on Friday. Same time slot, similar availability. The only time it’s been done, only one show ended up waving the white flag by switching to another night

And it wasn’t AEW

SmackDown on FS1 defeats rampage on TNT.

1,032,000 for SmackDown which was bumped to a fourth tier cable network.

623,000 for rampage on top cable network TNT.

SmackDown was also victorious in the all important key demo.

So that actually matches what Smackdown did on December 18 when they were bumped to FS1. Good numbers for both.

632/.15 for NXT last night. Halloween Havoc was 731/.18. Of course that was a special, you didn’t have a clinching game of the World Series, and you didn’t have politics news cycle.

Piss poor number. What's the excuse this week? Gotta be the west coast airing it live now, right?
Well I said that a few weeks ago so I knew it was coming. It’s better than it would’ve been if it aired on delay after the kings/blues game. I don’t think it was smart for them to wait until January 1 to switch to TBS. but the number was better last week even with baseball competition.

The Flyers/Oilers game did less than 300K viewers I think.

Yikes. And that was a rare live episode of Rampage. Can’t be a good sign for the PPV buys. All metrics are down significantly from their previous PPV. It appears Punk and Danielson have moved the needle in the wrong direction lol.
