Based on some tv ratings stuff, TBS averaged around 415k for their shows last year and down huge from the 1.15 million they averaged the year prior.

Seeing as AEW's average for their shows was a lot higher than what TBS was averaging and TBS is in around the same number of homes as TNT, might be looking at a similar situation to when WWE had their ECW shows on Syfy. WWE's ECW shows routinely did better numbers than what Syfy was averaging for their other shows.


Edit: Based on network rankings last year, TBS was watched more than TNT during primetime hours so AEW might not be affected or at least not that badly from switching networks unlike what happened to Impact years ago. TBS was ranked #14 while TNT was ranked #18.
