AEW Dynamite Grand Slam witnesses a drop in viewership with Jon Moxley crowned new champion former WWE Superstar s debut

By Saunak Nag Modified 17 Oct 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Dynamite: Grand Slam took place yesterday AEW Dynamite's Grand Slam special episode witnessed a drop in viewership yesterday from the previous week's show. This week featured Jon Moxley defeating Bryan Danielson for the AEW Championship. Another major moment as Saraya, FKA Paige in WWE, debuted in the promotion to confront Britt Baker and company. There were two title changes at the event: Claudio Castagnoli dropped his ROH World Championship to Chris Jericho, and The Acclaimed became the new Tag Team Champions after defeating Swerve in our Glory. According to Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics, the episode performed decently as far as the ratings are concerned, but it was not at the level of last year's Grand Slam. Thurston's post on Twitter revealed that Wednesday's episode witnessed an average of 1,039,000 viewers, which maintained the show's 1 million viewer streak. However, the numbers saw a 12% drop from last week. The key demographic also took a significant hit as the event was watched by 458,000 viewers aged 18-49, 10 percent less than last week.
