AEW Dynamite Ratings Dip Slightly As Josh Alexander Shocks the Crowd

Published on

Josh Alexander debuts and joins the Don Callis Family after Owen Hart Cup loss


Summary
– AEW Dynamite drew 624,000 viewers, down 5% from the previous week

– The 18–49 demographic held steady with a 0.17 rating

– Josh Alexander debuted and aligned with Don Callis following his match

AEW Dynamite’s April 16 episode on TBS delivered big surprises, but total viewership took a slight hit. The show brought in 624,000 viewers, down from 659,000 on April 9. Despite the drop, the 18–49 demo remained strong with a 0.17 rating, unchanged from the previous week.

Dynamite finished #5 on cable for the night in the key demo, a solid placement considering it went head-to-head with the NBA Play-In game on ESPN. That game led the night with a dominant 0.70 demo rating and 2.07 million viewers.

The night’s biggest moment came when Josh Alexander made his AEW debut in the Owen Hart Cup tournament. He faced “Hangman” Adam Page in a hard-fought match but came up short. In a shocking twist, Alexander joined the Don Callis Family moments later, turning heads across the wrestling world.

MJF added more fuel to the fire by extending an unexpected offer to the Hurt Syndicate, raising new questions about his next move. With major developments and storyline shifts, AEW continues delivering strong episodes despite heavy sports competition.
