They already got the first part of the equation unlocked since this week's AEW show beat this week's RAW show in terms of the key demo viewers. Did it without having to include DVR viewers which is how CM Punk's debut Rampage show managed to top both RAW and SmackDown shows that week.
The general consensus online is AEW could probably over take RAW in terms of overall viewers this Fall but Meltzer thinks next Fall is more likely based on current trends and AEW's female viewership not being stable or strong enough where that could be possible yet.
