AEW is in OK shape, all of this concern trolling is getting so out of control. The low dynamite number is very easily explainable.
1. It was Juneteenth, which is now like a Memorial Day or a Indigenous People's Day where people use it as a relaxing holiday to go out with family, barbeque and not watch television.
2. The College World Series Baseball game was on, that's big competition on the flagship ESPN station.
3. There was a big Kendrick Lamar concert that had a lot of young people watching and posting about it that involved another big superstar rival rapper in Drake.
Very rare to have such intense competition from many different demographics biting into AEW program. The show itself was great with top notch matches and featured big superstars. Also WBD are very close to offering a major commitment to AEW programming with the new contract coming up.
Those that want to attack AEW over this manufactured number don't understand wrestling and just want WWE to dominate. AEW is in a strong health place, this number will be a one off aberration, and there will be a strong bounce back next week in the rating. No one will talk about this again except weirdos on the internet.
