The penultimate episode of Dynamite this year saw the program finish second for the night on cable.
The December 22nd edition from the Greensboro Coliseum averaged 1,020,000 viewers with approximately 480,000 (0.37) in the 18-49 demographic, according to Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics and Showbuzz Daily.
It was AEW’s highest audience in the key demo since November 17th, which had the identical figure and the first time the program has topped one million viewers since October 6th.

Its male audience was up dramatically as males 18-49 were at their highest mark since October and was up 26 percent from last week. According to Brandon Thurston, males 18-49 grew from 282,000 last week to 355,000, and males 35-49 jumped from 199,000 to 258,000 as its key sources for growth.
