AEW Collision made its return to a special Thursday night last week, and the rating was steady while the audience ticked up. Thursday night’s episode garnered a 0.08 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic and 473,000 viewers per Programming Insider. Those numbers were flat with and up 11.8% respectively from the previous week’s 0.08 and 423,000 viewers on Saturday night.
Both numbers were up from the 0.07 and 373,000 for the Thursday night airing two weeks ago, and the demo rating was the best since the March 28th episode’s 476,000 viewers. The top shows for the night were on CBS in Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage (0.43 demo rating, 5.878 million viewers) and Ghosts (0.35/4.845 million).
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 0.067 demo rating and 410,000 viewers in 2026 compared to a 0.11 and 380,000 for the same time period in 2025.
