Just wanna point out before i update with the ratings, last night BOTH AEW and NXT faced a TON of competition, and that includes the World Series which had 22 MILLION viewers, so yes, AEW and NXT took a HUGE hit this week, but dont take it too seriously, we will only know for sure where things sit once sports season is over.
You do realize there's no off-season to "sports", right? Like, even when one ends, one begins? xD

Well, sports was hurting both shows, it seems the world series took more viewers from NXT then AEW, chances are both will increase again on Wednesday though AEW might have a higher boost due to Full gear, chances are with sports mostly done for now on wednesdays and things slow down both shows will get more viewers.

It was a given both shows would increase but we didnt know how much, chances are as i said both will increase but now its a matter of how much and will NXT take the lead or stay right behind AEW. as you saw they were within 1.1% of eachother, just 9.000 viewers which on the grand scale of things is very very close, AEW did win in the all important demos though and argueably those are the most important.

As for a direct answer, not sure, likely sports took majority of NXTs viewership and not as much from AEW, so now they got their fans back, for now. I suspect AEW will remain in the lead due to hype from Full Gear, most shows get a boost after a PPV so that should apply to AEW.

That sounds great.

Hey...& that's fair. If you aren't enjoying it...then don't
watch it. Its been nearly a year since I stopped watching
that other companies "red & blue" shows & I'm a happier
person for it. I even gave up on the yellow show...seven
weeks ago...and I don't miss it at all.

let me know your thoughts and be sure to give feedback on
the new format!
Well...perhaps it seems a little too detailed?

I mean to me age isn't a factor in who is watching...
as long as people are actually watching.

:idk3:

Still...nice work on this thread Alpha...

In fact it maybe my favorite thread on the entire forum.

:thumbsup:

The demos are quite important, as they are the ages of people watching the product, the 12 to 34 and 18 to 49 being the most important as it contains the younger audience, and thats where you create life long fans, which are super important in this day and age.

Plus sometimes it can be fun looking into all of the nitty gritty details, but either way thanks for the feedback! :)

That's a fair call.

No worries Broski.
