It's been dropping the last couple weeks and just managed over 1m this week.
They need to realise that relying on ex WWE to debut isn't going to keep fans. They need actual storytelling to keep the fans Interested.
Worry about wwe and if you don't then you are part of the reason why it's as bad as it is.
until a few months ago Dynamite rarely hit 1m, now they been doing it for weeks.. only a fool would think this is a decline 
some weeks will be higher, some lower but now their baseline is 1m... it will continue to grow as months/years go by and baseline will be 1.2, then 1.4 and so on... its a marathon

The marathon won't last long if they don't start turning a profit. Daddy won't keep giving money to feed a dead dream.
It's also not being helped by the spin from AEW fans and trying to act like Dynamite has stronger competition than Raw all of a sudden.
Melt spinning more than anyone though

Which is what I had mentioned with Page and Omega, but since I don't watch it weekly I apparently am not allowed to have that opinion lol.
I'll say that their storytelling and payoffs aren't exactly what they should be. They told a year long + story about MJF and Jericho and in the end, Jericho won and it was the wrong call. I get it, and I even popped when Jericho won (he was my favorite wrestler when I was a kid, going back to WCW), but this was a perfect passing of the torch moment and they botched the hell out of it. This would have skyrocketed MJF as a heel forever, and yes heels do lose, but not to someone twice their age who needs to retire soon.
The only actual great storytelling they've done so far is with The Elite. Omega and Page tag champs all the way to kicking Page out of the group. Page lone wolfs it for a long time, only to be accepted by The Dark Order and they help his battle against The Elite. Once he goes away, The Dark Order starts imploding. We'll see how Page reacts to that when he gets his promo time on Dynamite next Wednesday.
TeKPhaN, if you have any more examples please feel free to drop them down, as someone who watches every week you've got to have some opinions on this. Some actual analysis would be good
Everybody goes to beer trivia night on Wednesday that's why they don't watch.
Also millennials don't have cable.
AEW is young and far from perfect. I don't agree with many things they do but when it's good it's real good.
Not sure how things will go with TK being completely in control now. Might be a problem and if it is hopefully he doesn't pull a Vince and actually lets others book the stories.
Well wwe is bad...real bad.
We saw how they have done things unopposed with the majority of wrestling fans leaving.
WWE Blocks Pro Wrestling Company From Fox Streaming Service
WWE has deals with Fox and NBCU, two competing network entities. It was previously reported that Fox is less than thrilled about Peacock getting so much

They had a spike because of new talent but even putting all of their big people on one show this week their ratings still went down as they have been since Punks debut. They'll likely go under a million very soon, the big surprises are nice for some but the product still isn't very good. That 8 man tag was a joke, that flippy dippy s*** that happens too much in WWE but it's way worse in AEW, why does everyone in a multi-person tag match have to get a moment to dive outside one right after the other? That powerbomb was embarrassing as hell. Someone needs to tell these guys to put something behind their punches and forearms too most of them look terrible.until a few months ago Dynamite rarely hit 1m, now they been doing it for weeks.. only a fool would think this is a decline
Wish they would bring back the King of the Ring PPV and give the win a title match
Brock vs Roman is one of the good things in wrestling.
Don't mess it up by having(predictably) Roman win...

Brock Lesnar Slated To Take Hiatus After WWE Crown Jewel
Brock Lesnar surprised everyone with his return to WWE and then he set up a match against Roman Reigns for Saudi Arabia. Lesnar's part-time schedules

Why would someone want Brock to be a champion again? 4 title defenses a year and every match being nothing bug German suplexes? Brock is great but the guy needs to start doing more moves and no more titles for him unless he's willing to work more dates. Taking the belt off of Roman would be stupid right now, anyone wanting that to happen doesn't have a clue.
Yep. Everyone knows he's just going to keep coming and going but yet some think he should win the title? Why so you can then moan he never defends? Or just do the most over guy in wrestling right now doesn't have the belt?
Brock doesn't need title reigns and yeah it would be nice if he started doing some of the other moves he did when originally in WWE as we all know he can wrestle.

Brock is MAIN EVENT fighter.
Roman should be fighting for the IC or US title.
