There is a ton of reasons to excuse some of AEW's ratings dip but to me that isn't the only barometer of how good they are doing or the deciding factor in their success or failures.
Most of your post was logical and on point, but they are not cultivating a fanbase. They debuted against NXT with a 1.4 rating, they have never once done better. They got close a few times once NXT moved to Tuesdays, but even that is far in the distance.

In fact if they fail to draw a million viewers Wednesday, that would be a month straight of unopposed, in their normal timeslot. That is not cultivating an audience, that is eradicating an audience.
