WWE has somehow figured out how to get a younger audience to start watching their shows.

All three shows up YOY in the demo.

Ehh, it's not really all that surprising. They finally are building entertaining characters and involving them in week to week storylines that leave people wanting to see where it goes next.

Far cry from the two decades of a senile old man's ADHD bullshit.

Putting one of their most significant promos story wise of the year (MJF heel turn) on Collision against a WWE PLE was probably a mistake

Dynamite down 18% in 18-49 for Q2 while RAW, SD, and NXT were all up doesn't really bode well for the "Well the playoffs and it's nice outside" excuses.

And while I'm sure AEW gets a rights increase, not really a good look when you're trying to negotiate a new TV deal either.

A slight pop...not what they hoped for, I'm sure

The opening match did well in the quarters, some of their best quarters in a good long while.

AEW actually did quite well. Typically, they're barely beating out NXT, but they crushed em this week.

Eh, NXT had baseball All-Star game going on at the same time pulling huge numbers. Difference might have been smaller without it.

In swoops Jussi to the rescue

The numbers were on par with what they normally are. The MLB Allstar game isn’t a major factor. AEW whooped them this week, though they had to deliver PPV main event matches to do so.

After riding Joe Hendry and a post PLE high to strong viewership last week, WWE NXT has a bit of a comedown going up against the MLB All-Star Game

I don't watch AEW much by why such a huge increase in ratings this week compared to last week?
