The Ratings Thread - a lot of people watched wrestling on Super Tuesday, sort of

[GKJ]

Smackdown 2.114m/.57

Rampage 473k/.18

 

[GKJ]

Raw 1.753m/.47. 8% drop in 18-49. Definitely hit by the news.

 

[GKJ]

NXT 551k/.13. Not as bad considering. 70th on the night in cable

 

[GKJ]

Dynamite 966k/.35. Probably fine up against the news

 

[GKJ]

Smackdown 2.261M/.59

Rampage 545K/.22

Remember when wrestling shows started dipping below 4 consistently and it was the end of the world? It's sad that the ratings across all promotions are this low now in comparison. I recognize the power of streaming and DVR though. That certainly factors in.

The TV landscape drastically changed though.

There are now hundreds of tv channels + streaming options. People do not listen live anymore. They DVR or listen on a streaming platform after.

Ratings are useful for TV contracts, but I would guess that it is not the primary metric AEW and WWE look at. Especially not WWE.
