Huge blow to Tony Khan and AEW ahead of All In 2025

AEW is gearing up for its highly anticipated upcoming stadium show, All In: Texas, scheduled to take place this coming month. Unfortunately, one of Tony Khan-led promotion's television programs has witnessed a considerable drop in ratings this week.

All Elite Wrestling is only about 15 days away from presenting this year's edition of its blockbuster PPV, All In, at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The company continued setting up the match card for the event this week on AEW Dynamite, which featured several top names, a huge in-ring return, and a variety of bouts. The episode saw appearances from Mercedes Mone, Toni Storm, Jon Moxley, Hangman Page, MJF, The Hurt Syndicate, Will Ospreay, and Swerve Strickland.

Although the All Elite creative team put on a star-studded show, the viewership ratings for the program experienced a significant drop compared to last Wednesday's Grand Slam Mexico. This week's episode of AEW Dynamite raked in an average of 613,000 viewers while registering a 0.15 in the key 18-49 demographic. Wrestlenomics reports that it came in approximately fifth place on cable, and faced competition from the broadcast of the NBA Draft on ESPN.
