After hitting rock bottom for the show’s viewership last week, AEW Rampage had an increase this week.

The Friday airing at 6:30 p.m. ET saw Rampage attract 293,000 viewers and 117,000 (0.09) in the 18-49 demographic and ranked #24 among cable originals, per Showbuzz Daily and Wrestlenomics.

The show was up by three percent from last week’s all-time low viewership average of 287,000 while this week’s key demo audience saw a big 29 percent jump over last week’s number.

The 18-49 audience of 117,000 was identical to the numbers posted in the demo on April 28 and May 5, which also aired in the 6:30 p.m. slot on Fridays on TNT.  

In the key demo, male and female viewership rose in double digits to two-week highs for the show.

Adults 18-34 more than doubled this week due to such a low number last week.

Adults 35-49 grew six percent this week but adults 50+ fell by 12 percent.

The show has not aired on its regular Friday at 10 p.m. ET slot since early April, although the latest TNT listings state that Rampage will return to its time slot on Friday, June 2.

The taped edition of Rampage was headlined by Dustin Rhodes defeating Bishop Kaun, and Jon Moxley teamed with Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta to beat Best Friends & Bandido in the opening match.

This week’s show airs late Saturday night following TNT’s coverage of the NBA playoffs.
