And that they failed to mention it at all on last week's Raw. More than expected.

#1 on cable as well.
Let's not forget that the Winter Olympics are also on, which is a big deal in the US, so that's an excellent number.

TK overselling things worked! Quality episode too which surely will help long-term. Sometimes some of their big ratings shows haven't been the best so glad they've produced with so many eyes on it.
Spot on. The tactic of big time promotion for ex WWE debuts can only last so long. It’s was a fantastic episode, one of their best, so hopefully the viewers can stick around
In terms of debuting wrestlers which always creates a great buzz in wrestling, do you think WWE are missing an opportunity here as an NXT call up really creates no response other than ‘they’ll be gone in a couple of months’? An Omos for example, no one cares about. Are their days of unleashing new signing straight onto Raw or Smackdown gone?
I’ve always had an issue with how they debut NXT talents to the main roster. It’s horrible. They just assume everyone is familiar with the person and their character, when more than half the audience wouldn’t have a clue who they are looking at.
The best way to debut was always with a series of vignettes, and basically introducing the character as brand new to TV. And there are obviously exceptions to that, especially the bigger guys, enforcers etc. That’s just my opinion of course.

549k, up from 540k. Demo down to 0.19 from 0.20. #10 on Cable
Fast nationals are generally woefully inaccurate but it doesn't stop some wrestling "journalists" with hate-boners using them to create a false narrative.
Which for a cable show starting at 10pm on a Friday night are very good numbers.

Dynamite ratings surely go up this week people tuning in to see if the Cody thing was a work and if he doesn’t show up could imagine the Smackdown numbers do the same to even though if he goes back to the E surely they don’t have him on until Mania or close to.
SmackDown was taped so doubt he’s showing up there.

I forgot that it was taped this week.
You wouldn’t burn it at the Chamber. I’m not a Cody fan but if you were going to have a guy from AEW return to you you’d have it done at Mania surely.
