AEW Collision Rating & Audience Rise From Previous Week

AEW Collision saw its rating and audience rebound without the NBA Playoffs to deal with. Saturday night’s episode brought in a 0.08 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic and 360,000 viewers per Programming Insider. Those numbers were up 33.3% and 20.1% respectively from the May 16th episode’s 0.05 and 360,000 viewers.

The demo rating was the best for the show in a Saturday timeslot since the April 11th episode had a 0.08, while the total audience was the best in its regular timeslot since AEW Grand Slam Australia in February did 561,000. The show was up against the NHL Stanley Cup Finals, which won the night with a 1.42 demo rating and 5.056 million viewers on NBC.

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 413,000 viewers in 2026 compared to a 0.111 and 397,000 for the same time period in 2025.
