**The second night of Halloween Havoc averaged 674,000 viewers and 0.20 in the 18-49 demographic on Tuesday night. Overall viewership is down 17% from last year and 14% in the 18-49 demographic with TNT in 5% fewer homes than in December 2022. Using this show as an outlet to throw on a unique match like El Hijo del Vikingo vs. I don’t see this audience growing but I also don’t see it falling much lower than its current status that didn’t get killed by the addition of Collision. While a clear third priority, Rampage has its stable audience and has blossomed into a show of unique matches and a fast-paced sixty-minute show as a palate cleanser to the two-to-three-hour wrestling programs. This Saturday could also see a seventh game of the World Series if Arizona can win the next two games. It was a one-match show between MJF and Kenny Omega and based on the quarter-hour performance, it carried the show and saw a sizable increase for the final thirty minutes. This past Saturday’s Collision was a disappointment and did a WWE-opposition-level audience, but it was the World Series and three college games that were the culprit. The last time this occurred was on July 1 when Money in the Bank aired in the afternoon and a taped edition of Collision was hurt. This Saturday is another test with Crown Jewel not airing head-to-head, but many fans may have gotten their fill for the day with a 3+ hour WWE show. On nights when WWE/NXT have staged a premium live event, it has unquestionably been the largest hindrance to Collision’s performance. However, college football and CM Punk have not been the key factors to Collision’s success or failure but rather, WWE’s opposition. It is also comparing the Paul Levesque-led creative of WWE over both periods.Ĭollision took a major hit once the college football season began and was a double whammy with the firing of CM Punk. The year-over-year comparison does give a fair representation in the sense that both years were without its former star, CM Punk, who was suspended in 2022 and gone from the company this year. While not accounting for the loss of cable homes for TBS & TNT, Dynamite is down 18% from this time last year and 12% in the 18-49 demographic. While the perception of AEW appears to have lowered over the past several months, there has been a greater focus on metrics such as live attendance. *Excluding one episode that aired on Tuesday nightįrom month to month, AEW has not suffered much/if any drop when it comes to its television performance. **We have released our lineup on the POST Wrestling Café for November including three Rewind-A-Wai shows, a new edition of TALK, New Japan reviews of Power Struggle & Lonestar Shootout, MCU L8R, ASK-A-WAI & all your weekly staples.
