AEW Blood & Guts Draws 600,000 Viewers, Up 20.7%

The November 12, 2025, episode of AEW Dynamite, featuring the annual Blood & Guts special, drew 600,000 viewers on TBS, marking a 20.7 percent increase from the previous week's 497,000. Broadcast live from the First Horizon Coliseum in Greensboro, North Carolina, the two-and-a-half-hour show achieved a 0.15 rating in the 18-49 demographic, up 66.7 percent from the prior episode's 0.09. These figures represent the highest demo rating for the program in three months, since the August 20 edition's 0.16, and the largest audience since September 24's 634,000 viewers.

The event, simulcast on Max but excluding those streaming numbers from the totals, ranked sixth among prime-time cable programs. It trailed an NBA matchup between the Orlando Magic and New York Knicks on ESPN, which attracted 1.312 million viewers and a 0.37 demo rating. CBS's Survivor led the night overall with a 0.54 rating and 3.902 million viewers.
