This week’s episode of AEW Rampage on the TNT Network was again a taped show, and the viewership reportedly fell below 500,000.

Alfred Konuwa, who seems to be fed the fast national ratings for Rampage when they’re low, indicated this week that the Rampage number was below the half a million mark.

The Friday March 11th episode of Rampage apparently had a viewership of 480,000, down from last week. It’s worth noting that a demographic breakdown for the 18 to 49 number has not yet been revealed.

Comparatively, the March 4th episode of AEW Rampage had a viewership of 545,000 with a .22 rating in the 18 to 49 demographic.

AEW Rampage Ratings

There’s no indication right now as to whether the network is happy with the recent numbers from AEW on Friday nights.

Whilst the ratings and viewership has been declining, with last week’s show actually being 34% down from what was showing on TNT last year at the same time, it is first run programming for Turner.

Rampage was initially a far more important aspect of AEW’s weekly programming, with CM Punk originally wrestling almost exclusively on the show.

Although Tony Khan initially promised that it was not a “B show” for AEW, it does appear somewhat as though it is becoming the natural number two behind Dynamite on TBS every Wednesday.

AEW Rampage aired tonight on TNT. Swerve Strickland made his AEW in-ring debut against Tony Nese. Mercedes Martinez battled Jamie Hayter, Darby Allin squared off against Marq Quen of Private Party, and Keith Lee battled QT Marshall on tonight’s show.

AEW lost the overall viewership to WWE but has won the head-to-head key demo.

This past Friday night (Oct. 15), AEW ran its Rampage show while WWE delivered SmackDown. Things were a bit different this time. SmackDown was running on FOX Sports 1 due to a scheduling conflict with MLB. WWE also extended SmackDown to two and a half hours, competing with the first half-hour of AEW TV.

AEW Rampage vs. WWE SmackDown: Inside The Numbers

People were quick to jump on the “leaked” fast nationals as SmackDown had a clear edge over Rampage. That didn’t tell the full story, however. The final Nielsen numbers have been revealed (via Showbuzz Daily).

Overall, SmackDown had 866,000 viewers compared to Rampage’s 578,000 viewers. Both shows took in a 0.24 rating in the 18-49 key demo. During the head-to-head half-hour, it was AEW that won the key demo with 328,000 viewers compared to 285,000 for WWE.

Tony Khan took to his Twitter account to remind Darren Rovell that he failed to get the full scoop.

“Here’s a story nobody leaked to you over the weekend but I’ll give you rn, dog: AEW got a big victory over WWE after WWE aggressively extended their Friday show 30 minutes & loaded it up head-to-head 10-10:30pm vs AEW Rampage, with AEW Rampage winning 328k to 285k (+15% margin).”

When taking a look at how the overall numbers panned out during that half-hour, SmackDown took in 878,000 total viewers, while AEW had 602,000 viewers.

SmackDown ran the final half-hour with no commercials. The show closed with a contract signing featuring Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar, and Paul Heyman. Rampage’s opener featuring CM Punk vs. Matt Sydal was also commercial-free.

We haven’t seen the last of AEW and WWE going head-to-head in some capacity. WWE will be airing Talking Smack live on FOX Sports 1 on Oct. 29. That’ll be going up against Rampage.
