AEW Dynamite: September 22 episode viewership and ratings revealed as Kenny Omega wrestles Bryan Danielson
All Elite Wrestling made its New York City debut last night at Arthur Ashe Stadium for AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam. But did this mega card see a boost in viewership? The answer is yes.
This week's edition of AEW Dynamite, titled Grand Slam, brought in 1.273 million viewers, up from the 1.175 million they did last week, according to Showbuzz Daily.
The company scored their third-highest audience ever last night. The fact that they did that going up against the season premieres of The Masked Singer and Survivor is a statistic that simply can't be ignored.
AEW Dynamite last night on TNT was watched by 1,273,000 viewers on average, incl. 627,000 aged 18 to 49 (0.48 demo rating).
That’s just short of WWE Raw’s 0.49 demo rating this week, ending Dynamite’s 2-week run ahead of Raw.
