Report: AEW Dynamite Averaging Over 1 Million Viewers Since Max Debut

All Elite Wrestling's weekly programming airing on Max appears to have been a positive change for the promotion.

According to BJ Bethel of SEScoops, AEW Dynamite is averaging around 500,000 viewers on Max in the first 24 hours after the show airs live. When combined with AEW's viewership on TBS, Dynamite is averaging between 1 million and 1.2 million viewers within 24 hours of airing.

Bethel claims Dynamite has averaged around 60 million minutes watched per episode, with a change of between 10 to 20 per cent depending on the episode. AEW Dynamite has reportedly regularly outperformed some major ice hockey games on Max.

Dave Meltzer also reported on Wrestling Observer Radio that an average episode of AEW Dynamite draws around 1.5 million viewers on TBS within three days of airing, while Collision draws around 1 million viewers on TNT within three days of when it airs.

AEW Dynamite has been simulcast on TBS and Max since the start of 2025 as part of All Elite Wrestling's new US TV deal with Warner Bros. Discovery. The current deal worth approximately $185 million per year took effect from January 2025 and runs through December 31, 2027.

While AEW ratings are often discussed on social media, WBD reportedly "don't care" about the online discourse around AEW viewership.

AEW Dynamite ratings on TBS since the beginning of 2025 are as follows:

• January 1 - 588,000
• January 8 - 615,000
• January 15 - 679,000
