Wednesday night’s episode of AEW Dynamite on TBS pulled in 600,000 viewers, up from last week’s show, which did 598,000 viewers.
The show drew a 0.13 rating in the key 18-49 demographic, which is the down from last week’s 0.18. This is the lowest Dynamite rating in history for a non-preempted airing of the show in its normal timeslot.
It is important to note that Max viewing numbers are not included in these ratings, which are only the Nielsen ratings for the TBS airing. The same goes for people who watch the show on YouTube TV, etc. This will be the case going forward for AEW Dynamite and Collision ratings, as both shows will air on terrestrial TV and be simulcast on Max and YouTube TV.
AEW Dynamite finished at No. 8 in the rankings for primetime original cable programming.
AEW Dynamite is averaging a 0.174 demo rating and 628,000 viewers in 2025 to date.
Dustin Rhodes recently expressed his desire to have a match similar to his iconic Hollywood Backlot Brawl from WrestleMania XII.
At the 1996 pay-per-view event, Rhodes (as Goldust) faced off against Roddy Piper in a match that served as a precursor to modern cinematic bouts. He shared his interest in revisiting this style of match on Twitter. He wrote,
“I so desperately want to do another Hollywood backlot brawl ish match again. Maybe we at @AEW can come up with something cool here.”
