AEW Dynamite ratings up despite World Series competition

Wednesday night's episode of AEW Dynamite averaged 832,000 viewers on TBS, up 7.5 percent from last week. It's the second-highest audience total for the show since September 27. 

Dynamite drew a 0.28 rating in the 18-49 demo, up 16.7 percent from last week. The show went head-to-head with the deciding game of the World Series, which averaged nearly 11.5 million viewers and topped all of television with a 2.32 rating in 18-49.

Dynamite also ranked behind two NBA games on ESPN on the cable sports charts.

As compared to the same week in 2022, Dynamite was down 8.7 percent in overall viewers and down 3.5 percent in 18-49. Those decreases are actually lower than the loss in cable homes over that time period, so the year-over-year numbers are better than they have been most of the year.

Listed below are the last 11 weeks of overall viewership and 18-49 demo ratings for Dynamite, along with the 10-week averages in both categories. This week's show was down 1.4 percent in overall viewers and down 6.7 percent in 18-49 as compared to the recent averages.
