No. You think the analogy is bad in a different way than how the analogy is ACTUALLY bad. It’s bad because you’re comparing two things that aren’t comparable. Smeat already brought this up.
You’re saying “You can’t compare one week’s show with another week’s show because that’s like comparing a football team’s score one week to their opponent’s score in another week.” But it’s not. There’s a direct competition there. If you want to make that analogy with AEW vs NXT, go ahead. It KINDA works there because they are actually directly battling each other for viewers head-to-head in the same time slot. Just like two football teams are actually directly battling each other for points. There’s a direct effect being imposed by one side onto the other. That’s why your “The Ravens scored less points the week before so does that mean they lost?” argument was nonsensical.
The days between two shows is trivial. It’s possible for the latest episode of Raw to have lost to the latest episode of AEW. It’s also possible for the latest episode of AEW to then lose to the latest episode of Raw. Who cares how we designate what TECHNICALLY begins and ends a “week” by definition? It has no baring on the discussion.
And on a personal note, I think the main point should be that whether you wanna count Sunday as the beginning if the week, Wednesday as the beginning of the week, Friday as the beginning of the week, etc... The fact that there’s any week-long span where you can find any non-WWE wrestling show beating any WWE wrestling show in any demo is nuts. WWE should have such an insurmountable lead at this point that discussing technicalities based on when a week ACTUALLY begins and ends shouldn’t even be happening.
