Rampage & Battle of the Belts ratings up big from previous episodes

AEW had two hours of live television time on Fri., April 7, and the results were pretty, pretty, pretty good!

Rampage aired in its usual time slot, and delivered its best rating since a March edition that started late, but got a boost by airing immediately after NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament coverage. The .17 among 18-49 year olds was Rampage’s best at 10pm ET since Dec. 23. Total viewership was 503,000. That’s the biggest audience the show’s had since early January.

A live Battle of the Belts special aired at 11pm ET, and outperformed the three previous BotB shows with 415,000 viewers and a .14 in the demo.
