The live viewership numbers are in for both All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite and WWE NXT and, as expected, it was the former that won the night on TNT. While both shows were down in terms of total viewers, Dynamite was ahead of the USA Network show, but failed to crack the top 10 on cable.
AEW managed to draw 753,000 live viewers, while NXT was over 100,000 viewers behind with 644,000 live viewers. Last week, Dynamite managed to do 826,000 viewers, while NXT did 651,000.
It's unclear what caused the drop, but cable news stations likely stole a lot of attention heading into last night's Presidential Debate and the upcoming election. Dynamite won the 18 - 49 demographic, and was ranked #13 for the night. NXT was way behind at #56.
For the third week in a row, NXT being outside of the top 50 shows on cable means that demographic numbers weren't released for the WWE show.
Here is the demographic breakdown:
Viewers 18-49 – AEW: 0.30 / NXT: 0.16
Female viewers 18-49 – AEW: 0.21 / NXT: NA
Male viewers 18-49 – AEW: 0.39 / NXT: NA
Viewers 18-34 – AEW: 0.15 / NXT: NA
Female viewers 12-34 – AEW: 0.14 / NXT: NA
Male viewers 12-34 – AEW: 0.11 / NXT: NA
Viewers 25-54 – AEW: 0.36 / NXT: NA
Viewers 50+ – AEW: 0.28 / NXT: NA
