AEW (09.14) draws 1.175M viewers

September 16, 2022 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

AEW Dynamite returned to the number 1 spot in cable on Wednesday night posting the best ratings of 2022 with 1.175 million viewers. 

Tony Khan tweeted the results and thanked the viewers. 

Thanks to YOU, #AEWDynamite had our biggest audience of the year last night, 1.175 million!
+ we made it 16 straight Wednesdays in cable’s top 2 shows in 18-49 demo@AEWonTV #1 show on cable last night!

See you TOMORROW for a huge #AEWRampage on TNT, last stop before GRAND SLAM

The ratings drew 0.39 in the A18-49 demo, 0.23 in F18-49, 0.55 M18-49, 0.30 A18-34, 0.18 F12-34, 0.31 M12-34, 0.50 A25-54, 0.50 in over 50. 

Payout Perspective:

Notably it was the same week that NXT saw its highest ratings for 2022 on Tuesday.  The ratings almost mirror AEW’s biggest competition on Wednesdays, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills on Bravo.  The reality show drew 1.173 overall viewers, just 2,000 less than AEW.  The ratings are huge and reflect a renewed interest in the show despite backstage issues including the suspension of several of its top stars. .

I should point out that according to those at TKO that the ESPN/MVPW boxing deal is a revenue sharing agreement similar to the original AEW/Turner deal in 2019 and not a full paying media rights deal which Top Rank had and wasn't renewed.
