Last week’s edition of AEW Dynamite drew only 526,000 viewers and did a 0.20 in the Adults 18-49 demographic. This was the ‘go home’ show before Sunday’s AEW Double or Nothing pay-per-view.
The low numbers can be attributed to Dynamite airing in a different time slot than usual. The show was pre-empted due to the NBA playoffs on TNT. Instead of airing Wednesday night in prime time, Dynamite aired Friday at 10pm (Eastern).
The NBA playoffs are still ongoing and AEW will be pre-empted again this week. Dynamite will air this Friday, June 4th at 10pm (Eastern) on TNT. Additional scheduling changes are expected in the weeks ahead.
AEW is advertising the following items for this week’s show:
- Christian Cage & Jungle Boy vs. Private Party
- Joey Janela vs. Hangman Page
- Mark Henry will discuss his new role with AEW
- Dustin Rhodes will face Nic Comoroto in a Bull Rope match
- New AEW Women’s Champion Dr. Britt Baker will have a Championship Celebration
