Also, AEW Women’s World Champion Thunder Rosa defended her title against Miyu Yamashita in a rematch. In the main event, Bryan Danielson returned to the ring following an injury layoff, losing to Jericho Appreciation Society member Daniel Garcia in a huge upset.

AEW Dynamite drew an average 976,000 viewers. Viewership increased about 66,000 viewers from last week’s show, which drew 910,000 viewers.

While numbers were up in the key demo this week, Dynamite came in second in the cable rankings due to the New York Mets vs. New York MLB broadcast on ESPN. The MLB show topped the ratings for cable originals on Wednesday with 0.50. Meanwhile, The Five on FNC topped viewership for Wednesday with 3.281 million viewers. The Fyter Fest Week 2 edition of Dynamite slotted in at No. 1 last week.
