AEW Dynamite Blood & Guts tops NXT in Wednesday ratings

All Elite Wrestling's Wednesday Blood & Guts edition of Dynamite drew stronger linear TV numbers than WWE NXT in the head-to-head window, according to F4W/WON figures, after AEW president Tony Khan posted about the show's viewership.

In a 6 November 2026 post on X, Tony Khan wrote: "Thank you all who watched Wednesday Night #AEWDynamite Blood & Guts! I thought that it was a tremendous show, & had excellent viewership, including AEW’s most 18 to 49 viewers on @TBSNetwork in years! See you at Saturday #AEWCollision Rock n Rager TOMORROW & Full Gear next week!" The exact post URL is listed under Sources.

The numbers F4W/WON reported

F4W Online / Wrestling Observer reported that AEW Dynamite Blood & Guts on Wednesday 4 November 2026 averaged 792,000 viewers on TBS with a 0.24 rating in adults 18-49. F4W said that was up 27.7% in viewers from the prior week and up 71.4% in the demo, tying Dynamite's highest 18-49 mark since 24 July 2024.

The same report said WWE NXT, moved to Wednesday because of CW election coverage on Tuesday and featuring main-roster guests, averaged 552,000 viewers and a 0.13 in 18-49. F4W attributed those NXT figures as up week to week but still among recent lows for total audience.

Linear TV caveat

F4W's Dynamite totals are for the TBS linear telecast. The outlet notes the July 2024 18-49 comparison point was before Dynamite was simulcast on HBO Max, so readers should treat the 792,000 / 0.24 figures as linear TV, not a combined TBS-plus-streaming total. Khan's X post referred to 18-49 viewers on TBSNetwork and did not publish a separate Max number in that message.

What RingZine is taking from this

Khan's thank-you post is the executive primary source for AEW's own framing. The head-to-head viewer and demo figures above are attributed to F4W/WON reporting, not invented here. Collision Rock n Rager was flagged for the following Saturday and Full Gear for the following week in Khan's same post.
