WWE issued the following official statement about last night’s premiere of AEW Dynamite on TNT:
“Congratulations to AEW on a successful premiere. The real winners of last night’s head-to-head telecasts of NXT on USA Network and AEW on TNT are the fans, who can expect Wednesday nights to be a competitive and wild ride as this is a marathon, not a one-night sprint.”
We’re awaiting viewership data for WWE NXT and AEW Dynamite but early indications suggest AEW took Week 1 in what would be a shocking accomplishment.
