Tony
Khan was quick to react after the news broke about
the strong ratings for this past Friday’s AEW
Rampage.
While
SmackDown drew more total viewers over their entire
2 and half hour broadcast, AEW tied WWE in the key
demos and beat them in the 18-49 male demo with a
0.34 to 0.32 rating. Rampage was able to pull off
these numbers in a later timeslot. The quarter numbers
that would show what the shows did head to head from
10 to 10:30 pm are not out yet but should be released
soon.
Tony
Khan reacted to the numbers on Twitter. He tweeted,
“I’m only estimating but this suggests to
me that we probably did pretty well in the yet-to-be-released
head-to-head ratings from 10 pm-10:30 pm, a fight
that I didn’t ask for or start, but one for which
I was more than willing to show up and in which I
was thrilled to participate.”
In
another tweet, he wrote, “Let’s go @AEW
fans! I’m excited to see head-to-head half hour
numbers from last Friday, soon we’ll know. Most
of all, I’m looking forward to another great
weekend of wrestling this weekend! See you for #AEWRampage
Friday + #AEWDynamite one more Saturday before back
to Wednesdays!”
