Wednesday Night Wars Ratings (1/6/2021): AEW’s “Dynamite: New Year’s Smash Night 1” Beats WWE NXT’s “New Year’s Evil”

The first Wednesday Night Wars ratings battle between WWE’s “NXT New Year’s Evil” special event and AEW’s “Dynamite: New Year’s Smash Night 1” show brought with it some pretty big surprises in terms of the viewership each broadcast drew on January 6, 2021.

While official figures are not yet available for yesterday’s AEW Dynamite and NXT shows, by all indications it appears that Wednesday night’s special episodes were greatly affected by viewers watching news shows with the political situation going down in the United States.

AEW’s “Dynamite: New Year’s Smash Night 1” special event drew 662,000 viewers and a 0.25 rating in the 18-49 demographic on TNT, while WWE’s “NXT New Year’s Evil” show produced 641,000 viewers and a 0.16 rating on the USA Network.
