Last night’s episode of AEW Dynamite averaged 683,000 viewers, down from 762,000 the prior week. It is easily the lowest viewership of the year and the lowest of since it drew 670,000 viewers on Jan. 13, 2021, over three years ago. It barely outdrew NXT the night before, which drew 661,000.
In the key 18-49 demo, it drew a 0.23 rating, back down to where it was the two weeks before the Jack Perry-C.M. Punk footage aired. NXT drew a 0.20 in the key demo.
It went up against NBA and NHL playoffs games, the West Coast timeslot was live instead of delayed until prime time, and they had major audio quality issues that all contributed to the low viewership numbers.
The NBA game finished no. 1 in the 18-49 demo with 1.302 million viewers (0.99 rating) in that demo. Dynamite finished no. 10 overall among all cable and broadcast shows with 306,000 viewers (a 0.23 rating) in the demo. The NHL playoffs on ESPN finished no. 4 in the demo with 477,000 viewers and a 0.36 rating in the demo. Dynamite outdrew the NHL playoff game that immediately followed Dynamite, as it finished no. 25 for the night with 134,000 viewers (0.10) in the demo.
So this a terrible viewership and demo rating by AEW standards, but with significant outside factors that might not point toward dissatisfaction with the product, especially it airing hours earlier live on the West Coast along with NBA competition and the major audio issues.
