Summary

AEW Collision drew 397,000 viewers on TNT for its April 25 episode, a drop from the 473,000 viewers the show posted for its April 16 broadcast.

The April 25 episode also delivered a 0.05 rating in the 18-49 demographic. That was down from the 0.08 demo rating recorded by the previous episode, which aired on a Thursday.

Streaming numbers were not available for the simulcast on HBO Max.

How the schedule shift affected AEW Collision

The previous Collision episode aired on April 16 instead of its usual night, so the April 25 show represented a return to Saturday for the TNT broadcast. That makes this latest number a notable week-to-week step back on cable, even with the show again airing in its traditional slot.

Viewership swings have been a recurring part of wrestling television this year, and WWE SmackDown also posted a decline for its March 6 episode. For AEW, the key limitation here is that the full audience picture is still incomplete because HBO Max viewership was not released.

What stood out from the episode's online interest

The most-watched clips from the show on YouTube centered on Will Ospreay, Jon Moxley, Chris Jericho, The Hurt Syndicate, FTR, Cope, Cage, Anthony Bowens, Samoa Joe, and The Opps. That suggests the episode's biggest post-show interest came from AEW's established headline acts and ongoing faction stories.

Without the streaming data, the TNT decline is the clearest hard number available. Even so, the YouTube interest points to several featured acts still generating attention beyond the live cable broadcast.
