AEW Collision viewership ratings peaked at their highest with a rating of 0.33. The premiere of the show was on 17 June where 816,000 attended.

AEW Collision is the most recent program released by the wrestling promotion AEW. The first episode of the show was held at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois, and since then been hosted at different venues throughout the year.

The wrestling show has some of the biggest and most famous names in the world such as CM Punk, Christian Cage, Samoa Joe, MJF, Malakai Black, and many more.

In comparison to WWE which has been in business since 1953 and the AEW which started just four years back will no doubt take time to match the numbers produced by the WWE.

AEW is growing in popularity without any doubt and many more big names are joining the promotion which will only result in generating good viewership and ratings for both the promotion and its various weekly programs.

Since the television program first aired on 17 June 2023 AEW collision viewership numbers have declined from 816,000 to 480,000 in August.

The reason for such big numbers for the first episode could be the return of one of the most loved wrestling superstars CM Punk. He made his return after being absent from professional wrestling for nine months.

Although the program has just been airing for a couple of months, it is bound to take some time to garner a huge number of viewers. The professional wrestling promotion AEW itself was founded in 2019 so the numbers aren't something the promotion would be worried about.

The wrestling show has seen a significant drop in the month of August and the upcoming episode will be crucial for Collision. The promotion would want the numbers to be increasing rather than decreasing and need to come up with the best possible storylines.

AEW Dynamite which is one of the programs of AEW has been constantly crossing the 800,000 mark and recorded its best viewership on February 22, 2023, when it had an average viewership of 1,028,000 and 1,003000 on January 25, 2023.
