This week, AEW Dynamite ranked #5 in the Cable Top 150 for the 18-49 demo, while NXT ranked #31. AEW ranked #29 in total viewership, while NXT ranked in at #39.

In the 18-49 US demographic, AEW earned themselves a 0.38 rating while NXT drew a rating of 0.21. Last week's AEW show drew a 0.36 rating while NXT's episode drew a 0.19 in that demo.

The 'Bash at the Beach' episode of AEW Dynamite was notable for the segment featuring Jon Moxley and The Inner Circle where Chris Jericho injured Moxley's eye with a metal spike that was on his jacket apart from a brutal match between PAC and Darby Allin.

NXT's episode was not short of wrestling either as it featured two first-round matches of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic and a No. 1 Contender's Battle Royal match in the main event for the NXT Women's Championship.
