Is that a stronger demo than last week?

I honestly expected it to be about 800-900k so I’m pleasantly surprised.

Nick Gage is a draw, brother.

Three straight weeks of over a million, and doing it with the Olympics in full swing is very impressive.

Yeah AEW is red hot right now. That’s barely a drop in viewership from last week and the demo is higher. That rocks man.

That's something to be really proud of. AEW is appointment viewing for a lot of people right now, even with the Olympics going on.

It was expected that the Olympics were going to affect the viewership.
Demo was the same as Winter is Coming.

The excitement of Punk and Bryan’s impending arrival, and seeing where Hangman’s journey goes next (along with a smattering of surprises) is really keeping viewers engaged week to week.

I'm really curious to see what the Nick Gage match did.

Excellent rating, all things considered. I'll be intrigued to see the quarter-hour breakdowns when they come out.

If 1.1 is their new average, then AEW is gonna have a fat check coming to them in a few years

Thought Winter is Coming and the fallout show was the last time they had that big momentum besides the Road to Revolution 2020.

A .45 rating with 581k viewers in the 18-49 demo, Raw got a .49 rating, with 635k in the 18-49 demo. To an advertiser, these are very similar numbers. I see AEW getting a much larger contract in the future, if they can maintain this success.
It's so good seeing a great wrestling company, that loves professional wrestling, putting on a great TV show that people love. I can only go on friends, twitter and reddit, but people are really into what's going on.

Also, NXT drew 520k on SyFy this week, so their entire viewing audience was below JUST the Dynamite viewers aged 18-49. It's insane that in 2019 many people predicted NXT would ruin Dynamite's ability to draw ratings.

Nick Gage is a draw, brother. I was a bit surprised that there were dueling chants for him and Jericho, as I didn't think the crowd really knew him that well but I was wrong there. I could see them bringing Gage back in the future as a hitman for hire for another heel.

Turns out being a "Blood and Guts Company" works.
