AEW Collision Viewership & Ratings Report: 10/24/2026 - Wrestling Inc.

"AEW Collision" was back in its regular timeslot on October 24, and fans in Winston-Salem, North Carolina saw more of the fallout from both AEW WrestleDream 2026 and "AEW Dynamite." Jay White revealed that he will now be leading a group known as The Last Outfit, which was quickly changed to The Cut. FTR leveled their series with The Motor City Machine Guns at one win each, and Willow Nightingale put out the challenge to Divine Dominion and the Triangle of Madness for a Blood and Guts match.With "Collision" airing live in its regular timeslot for the first time since October 3, the show managed average a total of 445,000 viewers according to Wrestlenomics. While this is 13% lower than the hour of "Collision" that aired on October 14, which averaged 514,000 viewers, it is higher than the last episode to air on a Saturday night, that being the taped Grand Slam France special on October 10, which averaged 372,000 viewers. Compared to the October 3 episode which was the last show to air live, 445,000 viewers was an increase on the 415,000 viewers that episode averaged.Combining all of the shows from October, the current average for both the month and the fourth quarter of 2026 is 412,000 viewers, which is 60% higher than the October 2025 average, and 67% higher than the fourth quarter of last year.The biggest piece of good news for the show was in the 18-49 demographic. "Collision" posted a 0.10 number, matching the show that aired after "Dynamite" on October 14 and rising 67% above the trailing four week average of 0.06. For a non-preempted episode of "Collision," 0.10 is the highest number in the 18-49 demographic since the Grand Slam Australia special that aired back in February, which Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer noted was even more impressive considering the show went up against the MLB World Series, college football, and NBA games across various cable networks.
