Would be nice if they could keep things 1 million + since last week (and this week) was good but I can never predict/guess AEW ratings because they fluctuate a lot.

Comparing current RAW to shitty Nitro is a disservice to shitty Nitro. How dare you. Gimme Russo and Arquette over 3 hours of RAW (even before and after WM).

Main event was really well done. Jungle Boy and Darby are both really good.

Old ratings still blow my mind. Shitty WCW would exist in today's market because network love for live entertainment...advertisers. |

RAW doesn't have that feeling under Bruce Prichard and instead has gotten even more boring and awful. Only Drew McIntyre has managed to benefit or look good from the change from Heyman to Prichard and that's mainly because Vince became fond of him as a top star. |

I'd love for AEW to add the IIconics, Vega, Paige, and Chelsea Green but not if they're just going to continue having 1 gal match on Dynamite. There's too much talent to be regulated to Dark and Elevate no matter how deep the pockets are.

Like, I don't fucking care to see QT and Gunn matches. They are great trainers...leave it at that. There's another potential women's match to take its place.

I'd actually find it kinda cool if Dark had matches where QT is training wrestlers. That'd make him useful as on air entertainment.

TNA never owned by Spike, TvGuide, whatever the hell else WCW completely was reliant on Time Warner/AOL. AEW not owned by TimeWarner |

Really good show. Only down spot for me was the woman's match. A few too many spots that looked slow and sloppy. It wasn't terrible though.
Love the Eddie and Dean partnership. It might be my favorite thing in wrestling right now. Darby vs Jungle boy definitely delivered. Great match. Holy shit at how awkwardly Luchasaurus and Sting battled to the back though. |

Jungle Boy needs to go on his own.
Everyone knows Lucha isn't a real Mexican luchador |

Only real difference between them and WCW is that their parent companies didn't launch their very own channel and instead just buy up existing channels and networks to put their wrestling shows on. Ted Turner's company launched TNT so WCW never had to worry about tv money stuff unlike WWF until the very end. |

2000 Nitro was so much better than current Raw. It was bad and insane but they were trying everything they could to pop a good rating and get viewers. Raw is so lackluster and boring it seems like they’re not even trying. It’s like they’re just like “welp, it’s Monday again. Guess we gotta put something out there for 3 hours. Ugh.”

With The Challenge ending this week, they should be able to nab the top spot next Wednesday. 1.1 million this go round.

Not that bad of a drop in terms of overall viewers and them staying over 1 million showed that last week's numbers were not just some sort of a big fluke.
