AEW Dynamite ratings saw a strong increase for the March 25 broadcast, continuing a positive trend for the show in recent weeks.
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, the March 25 episode of AEW Dynamite drew 765,000 viewers on TBS, along with a 0.14 rating in the 18-49 demographic. This marks the highest total audience for Dynamite in several months.
The viewership figure stands as the best since the highly praised one-hour match between MJF and Will Ospreay, which aired before AEW began simulcasting episodes on MAX. The increase is notable given the level of competition on the same night.
Dynamite aired opposite MLB Opening Day coverage, along with a high-profile game featuring the New York Yankees vs. the San Francisco Giants streaming on Netflix. Both events likely attracted a large audience, making AEW’s growth even more significant.
This episode also represents the second straight week of gains for AEW Dynamite. The March 18 show brought in 730,000 viewers and a 0.13 rating in the key demographic. At the time, that number was already the highest audience since the Grand Slam Mexico special in 2025, showing steady momentum for the program.
The March 25 edition of Dynamite took place live in St. Paul, Minnesota, and featured several key developments tied to upcoming storylines.
The show opened with Kenny Omega defeating Swerve Strickland in a major match to become the number one contender for the AEW World Championship. Following the victory, AEW confirmed that Omega will challenge MJF for the title at AEW Dynasty, which is scheduled for April 12 in Vancouver.
Additional matches for Dynasty were also set during the broadcast. Jon Moxley vs. Will Ospreay was officially announced, adding another high-profile bout to the card.
In the women’s division, Thekla successfully retained the AEW Women’s World Championship against Mina Shirakawa. The main event saw Darby Allin score a victory over RUSH to close out the show.
With back-to-back increases in both total viewership and the key demo rating, AEW Dynamite ratings are showing clear improvement heading into AEW Dynasty.
