AEW Dynamite rating: The Elite vs. Will Ospreay, Kyle Fletcher, and Konosuke Takeshita

By Jason Powell, ProWrestling.net Editor (@prowrestlingnet)

Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite television show averaged 687,000 viewers for TBS, according to ProgrammingInsider.com. The viewership count was down from the 716,000 viewership total from last week’s show.

Powell’s POV: Dynamite finished with a 0.22 rating in 18-49 demo, up from last week’s 0.21 rating in the same demo. Dynamite held up pretty well against stiff competition from the Survivor and The Bachelorette premieres. Tuesday’s NXT finished with 677,000 viewers and a 0.21 rating on USA Network. One year ago, the September 20, 2023 edition of Dynamite on TBS delivered 984,000 viewers and a 0.36 rating in the 18-49 demographic for the Grand Slam edition.

  1. Survivor and the Bachelorette didn’t have a god damn thing to do with their continuously shitty ratings.

    • I wrote that it held up well despite that competition. Pick better spots to throw your bitchy little tribal tantrums.

      • I’m sorry, but I highly doubt The Bachelorette has a big crossover audience with AEW. Wrestling journalism has taken a massive dump since AEW has come around trying to defend the ratings and crowds cratering this year.

        • We’re even then because I think AEW has warped the brains of some fans. I have acknowledged highly rated competition from any genre in WWE ratings reports for years and no one complained. I do it now for AEW shows and suddenly I’m an AEW defender. I guess we’re just going to ignore that I compared this same Dynamite to a throwaway episode of Collision?

          The best part is that I didn’t say AEW’s ratings were down because of The Golden Bachelorette and Survivor. I wrote that it held up well despite competition from the premieres of those shows. I guarantee you if those shows aired on Tuesday night and I wrote the same thing about NXT, the greatest tribalist would not have written anything, and I doubt you would have either. I don’t defend AEW’s creative or their declining numbers. I literally asked Tony Khan in one of his media calls whether he would ever consider giving up the book.

  2. What’s the excuses gonna be when NXT starts beating dynamite? All the other channels should should go dark when AEW is on. The competition isn’t fair to poor Tiny

    • Wednesday night got the Bachelorette as an excuse despite it not being on the air. They’ll go to any lengths to defend the worst pro wrestling shows in the national TV era.
