TV ratings have always been compared to the programming that week. Raw got 1.54 million and AEW got 800k or whatever. That’s it. When Raw tanked you knew AEW was going to tank. There was a drop-off in the weeks.
Listen to yourself: “sub-key demos.” What kind of oxymoronic bullshit that? Oh, it’s a key demo, it’s just not the key demo. THAT’S WHAT KEY DEMO MEANS! You can’t have a sub-key demo.
Oh, you’ve got first place and then you’ve got sub-first place. No. You’ve got bullshit. This is propaganda designed to prop up a bullshit wrestling company for either personal or professional reasons. I don’t know if Meltzer is getting paid, but maybe it’s his reputation since he’s consulting with them, or maybe it’s the fact that TK is an idiot that doesn’t know what he’s doing but when the Observer School of Wrestling so Dave feels like it can’t fail. Maybe it’s just because he’s forced himself to watch WWE and has brainwashed himself. But this ratings talk is just not honest. And there are people who take things that they read on the internet and don’t question them, circulate them further, change the wording of even more.
Raw has never been beaten by AEW. The history books will reflect that. But unfortunately we’ll have a lot of myths because of this sort of shit.
Exactly this.

Your comparison with RAW and Nitro was dumb because you were taking shows that aired on the same night meaning their most recent show was on the same time. You somehow think that people are cherry picking stuff when its just most recent shows that was being compared and AEW didn't have their most recent show when RAW's numbers came out on a Tuesday. Nobody was randomly picking an AEW show just to boast about it beating RAW as some sort of propaganda BS you've latched onto as an excuse.
Yes you can have sub-key demos since that's what makes up the overall key demo. Those sub-demos are useful when you want to look more deeper into numbers and trends but your dumbass somehow can comprehend that being possible with all the misleading stuff about ratings you keep spewing out. AEW having a higher key demo number than RAW one time didn't come out of thin air but something that was showing signs of happening in the future but not this soon. Brandon Thurston who analysis data and ratings for a living has been pointing out for months that AEW was eventually going to top RAW at some point if the trends stayed on their current track because of the shrinking gaps and growing shift towards Wednesdays as the new major day for TV wrestling.
