Back over the 1 mil average for the first time in a couple of months, good for them.

RAW and Dynamite are back to touching tips:

Good to see them overcome the West Coast disadvantage, though maybe a combination of a holiday week and Omicron surges meant less people were commuting from work this week.
Also, they beat Hour 3 of Raw in the demo and came pretty close to the Raw's first hour and average between the three.

Didn't expect them to break a million again until TBS, good for them.

I say good buzz from last week and no serious competition led to this.

Didn’t think this was the card to do it but hey, nobody involved should have any complaints considering.

Kyle O'Reilly got twice as many viewers as Von Wagner!

I imagine the main event did deservingly huge numbers.

I do think there was some buzz coming off of last week with the title match/Cole teasing a surprise but last night also had what Dynamite sometimes lacks - stars facing stars. You had Cole/Cassidy, Ruby/Nyla, and the main event. All three had established names on both sides where either could conceivably win. I enjoy Dynamite week to week but that's something they can lack certain weeks.

Next week they clash with Ducks vs Sooners which is a much bigger game.

I’m really curious to see what numbers the first TBS show does?

Good for them, it was a good show and plenty of moments deserved the number.
The move to TBS and College Football winding down should only help, especially when it ends the West Coast Feed stuff.
Goes to show that AEW can still easily get a million, and on a Holiday Show no less. Usual detractors are real quiet thanks to that, love to see it, hope they keep momentum!
That being said if the number goes down a touch due to it being close to New Year's I'd understand plenty

Good on them. Big number. Will be curious to see how it shakes out for 1-5. That could do higher numbers. Next week’s a wash.

Great bounceback after the last several weeks. They’re primed to beat Raw consistently in the demo once they switch to TBS, given the West Coast difference and the better lead-in. (although Raw may bump up because of the Road to Wrestlemania and no football).

Wow, that's great considering the stupid West Coast stuff they've had to put up with.
I thought they'd be under a million til the move to TBS, which I'm very anxious about now, just to see what kind of numbers they do then.
