BUT ONLY THE DEMOS MATTER!!!!!!!!

Also, how did AEW gain 75,000 viewers but lose 30,000 in the demos???

Jericho needs a new shirt, The "JUST KIDDING TOTAL VIEWERS ACTUALLY MATTER TOO GOD".

NXT gained 10,000 in the demos from last week too :eek::eek::eek::wave:

A mercy move to Tuesdays could happen soon enough if NXT doesn't improve those numbers.

Sepholio 10-16-2020 04:25 AM

tbh I think if NXT wasn't WWE's third weekly show it would be doing much better against AEW. WWE is saturating the market, even if it is technically a different product. AEW is the one thing non WWE people can watch to change it up.

I hardly ever watch NXT. After RAW and knowing I will prob watch some of SD as well I tend to want something a bit different on Wednesday, not just more of the same.

What are you talking about? NXT is the only show that GAINED in the demo from last week's number. Maybe AEW should move to Tuesday's by that logic.

Or maybe the 0.175 difference in the ratings isn't really a big difference like the "panic that NXT should move" narrative pretends it to be.

They are happy with staying on Weds and giving AEW consistently average ratings. NXT isn't supposed to be winning ratings as they are the WWE's third brand. That NXT won any days at all is a major failure to AEW's only show.

AEW would only improve from NXT's moving to Tuesday and I don't think NXT would improve enough to justify the move.

TNT pays for production and splits advertisement revenue with AEW, and they have no big advertisers. They had Cracker Barrel for one PPV over a year ago. It would probably be in their best interest to just cancel it altogether.

I don't think Noid even post here anymore, but nope. My issue is a respected guy in the industry like Jim Ross is saying essentially that a .32 in the demo is somehow better than a .46 average over 3 hours of Raw in that demo.

Jim Ross said AEW kicks WWE's ass every week. He did not say AEW beats NXT in that demo on Wednesdays, he said AEW kicks WWE's ass every week.

Can’t say I keep up with Jim Ross. I’d have thought it was implicit that when he said “WWE” he meant “NXT” given that (to my knowledge) AEW have never beaten Raw/SmackDown in the demo.

Nope, he specifically mentioned WWE and Vince McMahon. He did not say NXT, Wednesday nights, or even acknowledge that NXT won the total viewers last week. It's all about 70,000 more people in that specific demo on Wednesday Nights that he is using for his claims, ignoring all other data, including the numbers WWE does in that same demo on Monday and Friday nights.

As Slik said, Raw did the lowest 3rd hour in their history, but that lowest in their history is still double the total viewers AEW does. That lowest in their history still drew 110,000 more in the demo AEW crows about.

If 70,000 more in the demo is AEW kicking ass, then what does it mean when Raw's lowest hour ever got 110,000 more than AEW gets?

If 70,000 more is a monumental victory, 110,000 more can't just be ignored when they constantly talk about WWE and how much better they are.

That doesn't mean fewer people are watching wrestling. The obsessed nerds who still punish themselves with this shit are going to watch wrestling anyway. It's not some big fucking mystery or some amazing miracle that AEW and NXT did pretty average. Most people get their news from their phones.

Basically 1.75 million for the first two hours. That’s a whole 1 million more than AEW.
