According to TheWrap, “As of noon ET Wednesday, “NWA Powerrr | Episode 1” landed 144,000 YouTube viewers. Of the more than 2 million minutes watched, 22.1% of them came over as suggested viewing from those watching the series premiere of fellow pro-wrestling program “AEW Dark,” NWA Vice President David Lagana told TheWrap exclusively.”
As of this writing (3am EST 10/11/19) NWA Powerr Episode 1 has 233,690 views.
Also as of noon ET today, the launch of “NWA Powerrr” scored 70,000 viewers on Facebook. The show’s live-viewing number on Facebook Live peaked at 3,300 simultaneous viewers — YouTube’s peak was nearly four times that (13,000).
Both peaks came during the main event, which featured Nick Aldis defending the company’s top title against former NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion Tim Storm. These days, the belt is referred to as The Ten Pounds of Gold.
Those top-end live-viewership numbers represent nice gains from where they began: On Facebook, the peak over the hour-long show’s first 20 minutes was 1,000 viewers. On YouTube, the largest simultaneous audience in that time span was made up of about 7,000 people.
Congrats Jim, the boys, crew etc. Stumbled across this show last night and enjoyed it. I grew up in territories and started my career at channel 5 in Memphis so I have a lot of love/respect for small scale, crowd tv shows. Cool vintage feel. Keep working hard boys. Rock
