The October 25 episode of AEW Dynamite has caught attention, not for its high-octane action but for its viewership numbers. According to data from Wrestlenomics, the episode attracted 774,000 viewers, making it the least-watched Wednesday episode for the year 2023. For comparison, the October 10 episode aired on a Tuesday and went head-to-head with NXT had 609,000 viewers.
This dip in viewership is notable, especially considering that the previous 2023 low for a Wednesday was 776,000 viewers recorded on May 3. The recent episode also posted a 0.24 rating in the 18 to 49 demographic, a drop from the 0.31 rating from the previous week. One potential reason for this decline could be the clash with the NBA’s opening night on ESPN.
On the digital front, AEW Dynamite’s YouTube highlights showcased some significant moments. The most-viewed clip featured the iconic Ric Flair in AEW, presenting a special gift to the legendary Sting, which garnered a whopping 980k views. Other highlights included MJF’s match for the Dynamite Diamond ring and the return of RVD to Philadelphia.
