The celebrities of AEW, CMLL, STARDOM, and Recent Japan Pro Wrestling are on the doorstep of the Forbidden Door because the June 24 episode of “AEW Dynamite” acted because the go-home show for the largest interpromotional pay-per-view of the 12 months. Konosuke Takeshita successfully defended his AEW International Championship against Ricochet. Queen Aminata and Harley Cameron qualified for the Survival of the Fittest match that can determine a brand new AEW TBS Champion on July 1, and Mark Briscoe closed out the show by hitting MJF with the one move he has never kicked out of, the Jay Driller.
Despite the show featuring eight matches that were stuffed with motion, the show did take a success within the TV rankings. Wrestlenomics, with data provided by The Programming Insider, have confirmed that the June 24 episode of “Dynamite” averaged 616,000 viewers, a 7% drop from the previous week, and three% below the trailing 4 week average of 637,000 viewers. As at all times, these figures don’t include those that streamed the show live of HBO MAX.
There was a fair larger hit within the 18-49 demographic as this week’s episode of “Dynamite” posted a 0.10 number, 17% lower than last week’s 0.12 which can be the trailing 4 week average. With such a low number, “Dynamite” ended up placing outside of the highest ten within the prime time cable rankings for Wednesday night. The show ranked twelfth within the demographic, placing behind the likes of the NBA Draft on ESPN, highlights of the FIFA World Cup on FS1, three hours of FOX News, and three repeat episodes of “Family Guy.”
The most important competition AEW faced on the night was the aforementioned FIFA World Cup, with the show going head-to-head with the primary half of Mexico’s final group game against Czechia which earned essentially the most viewership out of any broadcast on Wednesday night.
