This past Friday we saw AEW and WWE go up against each other for the first time since going head to head during the “Wednesday night wars.” AEW Dynamite would eventually beat out the WWE NXT show and would eventually see the company move the show from Wednesday to Tuesday. So who would take Friday?
According to PW Torch, AEW Rampage’s October 15th episode brought in 578,000 viewers with a .24 in the 18 to 49 demographic. WWE SmackDown ran head-to-head with them for 30 minutes and brought in 866,000 viewers on FS1 with the exact same .24 rating in the coveted demo.
