You’re admitting it’s ridiculous to compare the two situations but then your conclusion is basically “Might as well pick ANY previous week...” The reason the comparison is ridiculous is the same reason your conclusion is ridiculous.

It is not that I think using Thunder is a legitimate comparison, it is that I do not think claiming a weekly ratings victory and celebrating when the shows were in separate weeks means what they are portraying it to be.
Comparing weekly ratings from different years and claiming a Thunder win is an exaggerated ridiculous comparison. It is more ridiculous than comparing weekly ratings from different weeks. The point was to maximize the absurdity to demonstrate that I do not believe AEW should be claiming they beat Raw in the weekly ratings based on shows that did not air during the same Nielsen week. They are bending the data to fit the narrative they want to tell.
It is factually incorrect that they beat Raw in the weekly demo ratings because the shows aired in different weeks. Not how I define weeks, how Nielsen defines weeks. Using Nielsen ratings but ignoring Nielsen parameters is illogical unless they are cherry picking the data to portray the end result they want.
