Wednesday Night Ratings: AEW Dynamite & NXT Both Take Significant Hits

Submitted by Jeff Whalen on


-- This week's AEW Dynamite and NXT viewership and ratings numbers are in and both shows took a significant tumble from last week, with Dynamite down 12% to 792,000 viewers and NXT down even more - 20% to 619,000 viewers. The combined audience of approximately 1.41 million was also the lowest total since early/middle June. Competition wise, things were definitely tougher last night with a couple of NBA and NHL games each taking away viewers as well as the usual news programming. In the 18-49 demographic, Dynamite continued its recent string of top 10 finishes with a #9 showing on the night (0.32 rating) while NXT was down in #65 spot with a 0.16 rating.
