AEW Collision Rating Up, Audience Slightly Down From Previous Week

AEW Collision saw its rating tick up this past weekend from the previous week, while the total viewership was down a touch. Saturday night’s episode brought in a 0.05 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic and 350,000 viewers per Programming Insider. Those numbers were down up 25% down 3.9% respectively from the May 16th episode’s 0.04 and 364,000 viewers.

The demo rating was still down from the 0.08 from two weeks ago, while the total viewership was the lowest for the show since the May 2nd episode had 347,000. The FIFA World Cup on ESPN won the night with a 1.52 demo rating and 4.429 million viewers, followed by the post-game (1.23 demo rating, 3.526 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 0.064 demo rating and 409,000 viewers in 2026 compared to a 0.110 and 398,000 for the same time period in 2025.
