AEW Dynamite saw a significant rebound in ratings this past Wednesday, averaging 680,000 viewers on TBS. This marks a 35.5% increase from the previous week’s record low and represents the second-lowest viewership total for the show since May 15. In the key 18-49 demographic, Dynamite drew a 0.22 rating, up 37.5% from last week’s 0.16, which was the show’s worst ever in this category on a Wednesday night.
The previous week, we had Black Panther as its lead-in, while this week, we returned to The Big Bang Theory, leading into Dynamite. The episode faced stiff competition from the first night of the NBA Draft. Compared to the same week in 2023, Dynamite’s overall viewership was down 16%, and its 18-49 rating dropped by 8.3%.
