AEW Dynamite ratings up from previous Saturday episode

Source: ShowBuzz Daily

Saturday night’s AEW Dynamite averaged 727,000 viewers on TNT, which was down 31 percent from the previous week’s airing in the show’s regular Wednesday night time slot. A fairer comparison would be to the last time Dynamite aired on Saturday night, which was June 26 of this year. Dynamite averaged 626,000 viewers that week, so this episode was up 13.9 percent from that. 

There was much stronger sports competition this time out, so the number is even more impressive than it appears. Dynamite went against multiple college football games, along with MLB playoff games on Fox & FS1 and TBS.

In June, Dynamite went up against an NBA playoff game and an MLB regular season game.

Dynamite drew a 0.28 rating in the 18-49 demo to finish ninth on the cable charts. It was the top non-sports show for the night.

The rating was down 24.3% from the previous week’s Wednesday Dynamite but up 33.3 percent from the last time the show aired on a Saturday.

Due to an NHL game being on TNT this Wednesday, Dynamite will air on Saturday night again this week before returning to its regular Wednesday night time slot on October 27.
