The only upside to the TBS move is if it’s a macro strategy to drive people to HBO Max. It’s not going to be as popular as BBT in that time slot — especially with women. So it’s kind of a noose around AEW’s neck for any other reason.
My prediction is that AEW eventually gets pushed to a later slot when advertisers and audiences want their sitcom back. |

I guess you guys haven't read about the additional terms on the TBS deal which tripled the income over the length of the original deal with TNT.
AEW on TBS is 3x more profitable than on TNT WHICH IS EHY TONY HAS SIGNED 3X MORE WRESTLERS |

I also overlooked that they are in several million more homes. That’s several million more viewers for Dynamite, baby!

Getting excited for this week’s Dynamite rating. The numbers are more exciting than the prospect of the show.

TK: “Hey Variety! I see you like to talk about numbers, huh? Well how’s that Variety YouTube channel against ours!?”

When that stuff isn’t included, I think it does omit a large slice of what people’s tastes are and how they like to spend their time.
It’s important to know what sort of original programming is working, but it just leaves out the context of how effective original programming is at all. |

Why would TK be upset with Variety...odd post.
It's a positive WWE and AEW have stuff in the top 1000. |

Id be interested to see how they would do with a 3 hour show from 7-10 instead of 8-11. Would he 3rd hour still drop off, or would they keep the ratings up until 10:00pm like they do now. |

A 3hr show is just not doable every week. That third hour is always going to suck and when you use that to skewer the WWE Raw rating, it doesn’t really reflect how each hour does in its respective slot. USA seems fine with the third hour being what it is. I don’t think WWE are concerned by a show-wide average.

Rampage bleeding viewers on a day where 90% of the workforce was at home.

Definitely a terrible number for Rampage. I couldn’t even be bothered laughing at them anymore.

And you’re not wrong about people actually being at home. TV viewership was up dramatically for a Friday. People just chose to watch college football and a dancing baby or whatever.

Oh, I meant an animated dancing baby or whatever it is yanks watch on TV at New Year’s. But your joke about people watching college football OVER a dancing baby works too.

He didn’t have to explain it. Hence my comment about people watching college football OVER dancing babies (AEW).

Wait until Meltzer puts out a thing saying that Brock has never been the draw Kenny Omega is. |

Kenny definitely has more classic wrestling matches than Brock even though they both do a similar suplex over and over in their matches. Kenny is probably a bigger star than Brock in the eyes of most fans because Kenny wrestles every week and so statistics say that Kenny is the bigger draw and ratings star because he appears more often than WWE's Brock Lesnar. Plus Kenny has merch in many different areas from shirts, toys and is EVP of AEW and leads AEW games. Kenny reach is further than Brock because Brock just shows up here and there and then goes back to the farm. Kenny's matches also are much better. |

Also the first Monday of the year is always a huge ratings night for cable tv so that explains why WWE has a big rating from Monday.
