Friday’s taped edition of AEW Rampage fell to its lowest viewership mark of the five episodes to air.

The September 10th edition of Rampage averaged 670,000 viewers and 347,000 (0.27) in the 18-49 demographic, per Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics and Showbuzz Daily.

It was down 3.7 percent in overall viewers and 10 percent in the 18-49 demographic, although managed to finish third among all cable programming behind ESPN’s coverage of U.S. Open tennis and the College Football game on ESPN 2.

Rampage didn’t have a strong marquee line-up with the key elements being interview clips from Bryan Danielson and Adam Cole, and a strong word-of-mouth buzz for Andrade El Idolo and PAC from those that saw the match live on Wednesday night at the Fifth Third Arena in Cincinnati.

Rampage dropped 25 percent among females 18-49 and fell 15 percent with females 12-34. The male 12-34 demo increased by 19 percent with 0.19 and the 50+ audience saw an 8 percent uptick from the week prior.
