AEW Collision Ratings Surge To Best Number Since May 2024 – AEW Collision experienced a significant ratings boost on the January 31, 2026 episode, drawing 492,000 viewers on TNT. The figure represents a major increase from the January 24 episode, which averaged 253,000 viewers, and marks the show’s strongest performance since May 2024.
In the key 18–49 demographic, Collision posted a 0.07 rating, also up sharply from the 0.02 rating recorded the previous Saturday. Both the total viewership and demo gains reflect one of the program’s most successful nights in several months.
Saturday’s episode featured a TNT Championship match in which Tommaso Ciampa defeated Mark Briscoe, a bout that carried notable stakes and championship implications. The title match served as a strong anchor for the broadcast and helped generate additional interest among viewers.
Collision’s improved numbers were also aided by external factors tied to Royal Rumble 2026. With WWE’s premium live event taking place earlier in the day, the overall wrestling audience was already engaged for a full day of major action. That heightened interest appears to have carried over into the evening, benefiting AEW’s Saturday night offering.
The January 31 viewership total stands as a notable rebound after several weeks of lower numbers, particularly the January 24 episode, which had dipped below 300,000 viewers. While Collision has fluctuated throughout 2025 and early 2026, this episode demonstrates that the show can still draw a stronger audience under the right conditions, especially when paired with compelling matchups and a favorable wrestling calendar.
Whether this spike represents a short-term bump tied to Royal Rumble weekend or the beginning of a more sustained upward trend remains to be seen. AEW will be looking to build on this momentum in the coming weeks as Collision continues to establish consistency in both viewership and key demographic performance.
