Dynamite trailed NXT in six out of eight quarters in head-to-head competition

There was not much to celebrate for AEW on Wednesday night after the quarter-hour ratings were revealed, showing a bleak picture when it came to viewership trends against NXT.

Out of eight quarters, Dynamite won the first quarter in both viewers and 18-49 thanks to their lead-in, winning in viewers by just 1,000 and in 18-49 by 22,000 viewers. In the seventh quarter, Dynamite lost by 92,000 in viewership but won the 18-49 demo by 15,000.

Apart from that, everything else was an NXT win in both viewers and demo numbers, something which was not expected since NXT was running on a day which is considered to be AEW’s.

Everything went downhill for AEW as soon as the second quarter kicked in, losing 91,000 viewers and never recovering. Dynamite ended the last quarter with just 455,000 viewers, and their nine-minute overrun after NXT went off the air increased only by 5,000 viewers, despite NXT’s closing with 625,000 viewers.

The full quarter-hour numbers, courtesy of Wrestlenomics, are as follows:
