  may be a secondary show, but AEW does its best to make the TNT program relevant—as proven by the January 21 edition featuring Jon Moxley in his first match since returning from alcohol rehab. Ethan Page was the perfect foil for Moxley, who looked better than ever in his win over the Canadian upstart. The show does particularly well when moved to Saturdays, as it was on Christmas night, attracting 589,000 viewers. The next isn’t approaching the 740,000 it earned for its August 19 premiere or the 1,129,000 it scored for CM Punk’s debut, over a half-million viewers for a one-hour Friday-night program—at 10 p.m. Eastern, no less—is still quite strong.
