Wrestling Rematches the PPV edition
In my last article we looked at Wrestling rematches for TV, this time we are going to breakdown PPV matches to see if we can answer the same question, re whether Rematches are an issue. Again, thank you to Wrestlenomics for the stats. So, we are going to keep with the same 2019 – 2021 format as the last article to keep things fair. Let us start once more with AEW, we start off in 2019 with 6% rematches across their PPV’s. Again, we can say this is a brand-new company so most

AEW to TBS – is it the right move?
“Until then, presence on TNT remains robust in 2021 with the addition of the new hour-long series “AEW: Rampage.” Debuting on August 13 at 10 p.m. ET, “AEW: Rampage” is a third hour of high-octane wrestling featuring the world renowned stars of AEW. In addition, TNT will debut four new professional wrestling specials annually, continuing to garner and grow AEW’s audience until the move to TBS in 2022”. “And, while we’re looking forward to our arrival on TBS, we’re not saying

Is RAW actually losing it's audience?
It has become something of a running joke in the wrestling community, you see if online every week. Raw was bad tonight. The last Three weeks a lot of review shows have given RAW a bad rating, it is normally trending on Twitter but because people are saying how bad it is. So, the people have spoken and RAW is bad, but something strange is happening its viewership is not drastically falling as you would expect if the show were horrible you would expect a massive loss of viewer

A Change in the Way Wrestling is Watched
A change in the way Wrestling is watched. During the last WWE investors call WWE said something that I have found very interesting, They said the way fans view the product has changed and viewership numbers no longer matter as much as more fans are interacting with the product via social media (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube). This got me thinking, is this true? With viewership numbers constantly in discussion and being compared let us look to see if the way we view wrestling

The Wednesday (?) Night Wars 28/08/2020
Hello and welcome to a slightly rushed version of the Wednesday Night Ratings as I've left this slightly late and I just lost a whole draft because Wix hadn't saved it. AEW had a good week, nothing special but they were out of their timeslot and against competition from the RNC yet were 7.7% up in average viewers (755k to 813k) and 6.5% down in P18-49 (0.32 to 0.29). The others demos were flat or slightly down but there's nothing too concerning leading into their uncontested

Wednesday Night Ratings - 20/08/2020
So, this one is a weird week. With no AEW on Wednesday we lose a lot of the talking points but have no fear, the Wednesday Night Ratings is here anyway! There will be a short AEW summary posted in the Weekly Leaderboards which will be postponed a day to keep up to date. So that's the schedule, expect much the same every time AEW or NXT moves over the coming weeks. NXT ran unopposed for the first time since their second week and had what I'd describe as a disappointing week. 8

Hi, welcome to a shorter version of the main Thursday ratings article. This is basically going to act as a quick summary for how all the shows compared in the last week. There's not going to be any major week-to-week ratings analysis, this is just to get a feel for how all the shows are comparing Just to quickly explain, these are all the Showbuzz reported numbers for the last week, and the numbers are colour-coded to which show they came from.
