AEW star Maxwell Jacob Friedman/MJF recently spoke to Yahoo! Sports to promote this Wednesday’s AEW Blood & Guts match. The bout will see Jericho’s Inner Circle stable take on The Pinnacle in a WarGames style match.
The controversial and outspoken performer discussed a number of topics during the interview; including how AEW Dynamite appears to be ‘creeping up’ on WWE RAW in the ratings.
‘There has not been a wrestling show that has been able to even sniff ’˜Monday Night Raw’ in decades” MJF began the interview. “We’re creeping up every single week in that key demo.”

“If I’m not mistaken, I believe we beat them a few weeks at points on their show in the key demo” MJF noted, discussing the 18-49 demo. “Which is absolutely insane because we have only been a professional wrestling company on television for a year and a half, two years. It’s unheard of and I’m proud to be a part of it.’
For context, WWE RAW has been drawing around 1.8 to 2 million domestic viewers every week over the past few months on a Monday. AEW Dynamite, now unopposed on Wednesdays, has drawn between 800,000 to 1.2 million viewers per week.
