According to Showbuzz Daily, this week’s AEW Dynamite drew 1.175 million viewers on TNT which is 10.91% down from last week’s Dynamite episode, which drew 1.319 million viewers. That was the second-best viewership in the show’s history.
This is the fourth week in a row that Dynamite has ranked number 1 on the Cable Top 150. Beating Raw two times in a row surely works as a confidence booster for Tony Khan.
This week’s Dynamite presented the in-ring debut of Adam Cole, who faced Frankie Kazarian. The fans also got to see Cody Rhodes’ return ever since he lost Malakai Black in August.
