Last week AEW Dynamite went head to head against WWE NXT and it was Tony Khan’s promotion that came out on top despite WWE adding some top names to the show.
AEW Dynamite on TBS drew 792K viewers on Wednesday night November 4 according to Wrestlenomics. The telecast featured the annual Blood and Guts matches with two teams of 5 going up against each other in a two-ring steel cage (think War Games from back in the day).
NXT on CW featured CM Punk taking on Grayson Waller in the main event with the Aussie coming out on top. In addition, John Cena made an appearance on the show. It still drew just 552K viewers.
In the key demo A18-49, AEW drew 0.24 while NXT just drew 0.13.
The ratings win was significant for AEW as it ended a five-night streak of losses to NXT in head-to-head competition. NXT aired on Wednesday last week due to Midterm Election coverage.
