Calendars almost universally go from Sunday to Saturday. The argument can also be made that the week starts on Mondays, because the weekend ends with Sundays. This is how Nielsen defines their weekly ratings, Monday to Sunday.
When you say who cares how "we" designate a week, I take that as we here, posters on TPWW. That is not my issue with the situation. My issue is AEW personal, and writers like Alvarez and Meltzer who clearly have an agenda, for the first time ever hyping up a previous week rating in comparison to a current week rating just because it is a more favorable outcome.
I made another ridiculous comparison in the actual ratings thread how WCW Thunder in 2000 outdrew Dynamite. Of course comparing a show 20 years ago isn't a fair comparison, but if the parameters are set that we can pick a show from another week to use as a victory, then it suggest any previous week is fair game.
Last week's Raw beat last week's Dynamite. This week's Raw beat this week's Dynamite. An episode of Dynamite had a higher demo rating than an episode of Raw. All of that is 100% the truth.
What is false is for them to use Nielsen Ratings to say they beat Raw in the demos this week, because they aren't following the guidelines of what the week is composed of (Monday-Sunday) set by the company who's weekly ratings they are referring to.
They know what the weekly ratings report is. They know there is no Wedsesday to Tuesday weekly rankings. It is a false narrative they are pushing because they can't help but to schill and make themselves feel important at every turn.
