Saturday’s AEW Rampage television show delivered 324,000 viewers for TBS, according to Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics.com. The number was down from 431,000 viewership count from the previous episode.
Powell’s POV: Rampage finished with a 0.11 rating in the 18-49 demographic, down compared to the previous week’s edition’s 0.15 rating in the same demo for a show that aired after last week’s Dynamite. The better comparison is for the April 20 edition of Rampage that also followed Collision and tallied 293,000 viewers and a 0.09 rating without an NBA game as a lead-in. Saturday’s three-hour Collision and Rampage block averaged 360,000 viewers and a 0.12 rating. For comparison sake, the April 20 three-hour block of Collision and Rampage averaged 440,000 viewers and a 0.13 rating.
I’m sure being on TBS instead of TNT had something to do with the drop
Fore sure. But they also have themselves to blame for doing a mediocre job of spreading the word. I don’t think they ever warned their viewers who record the show weekly that they might need to set it manually this time around due to the network change.
Not only that but I think they only said one time it would be on tbs and not tnt. Sometimes it feel like they sabotage their own ratings
