-- Last weekend's viewership and ratings numbers for WWE Smackdown, AEW Collision and AEW Rampage are below, with a small delay in announcing the due to the Labor Day holiday:
- WWE Smackdown delivered 2.054 million viewers and a 0.53 rating in the 18-49 demo. The audience is virtually flat from last week while the rating is down, but only by about 5%. Both figures are below what Smackdown has been doing over the last couple of months, however, one affecting factor was that the show was taped earlier in the day from Germany.
- AEW Rampage on Friday evening plummeted to 218,000 viewers and a 0.07 rating, with the audience almost an all-time low (only an episode that aired during the Olympics was watched by less people) and the rating being the worst ever. There was no major sports competition so hopefully this drop was due to the long weekend.
- AEW Collision on Saturday delivered even more bad news for the company, drawing 289,000 viewers - not only a huge drop from last week, but the worst audience ever for the show when airing in its normal time slot. The only shows that were watched by less people were an episode airing on Friday in 2023 and last month's Saturday afternoon airing to avoid SummerSlam head-to-head. Collision did face competition in the form of the first day of the college football season as well as WWE's Bash in Berlin, which aired earlier in the day.
