AEW Collision was back to a single two-hour episode this past weekend, and the rating and audience returned to normal levels. Saturday night’s episode scored a 0.8 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic and 476,000 viewers per Programming Insider. Those numbers are down 33.3% and 22.7% respectively from the numbers for the one-hour Slam Dunk Sunday, and down 20% and up 1.3% from Slam Dunk Saturday’s 0.10 demo rating and audience of 470,000 viewers.
While the show was down in the ratings from those shows — both of which had NCAA March Madness games as a lead-in — it was still up from the March 14th episode which had a 0.07 and 458,000 viewers. The NCAA Game on TBS won the night with a 1.97 demo rating and 7.906 million viewers.
As a reminder, Nielsen made an adjustment to its Big Data + Panel numbers in late January, and even the original Big Data + Panel ratings make ratings difficult to compare to pre-change weeks. That said, AEW Collision is currently averaging a 0.065 demo rating and 407,000 viewers in 2026 compared to a 0.113 and 379,000 for the same time period in 2025.
