Thurston noted that the demographic rating on April 29 was a new low for Rampage in its typical time slot, likely due to competition from the NBA Playoffs and the NFL Draft. Rampage ranked #32 in the demo overall on Friday and #24 among cable originals, according to Showbuzz Daily.
This week’s episode featured an Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament qualifying match between Darby Allin and Swerve Strickland. Plus, Samoa Joe defended the ROH World Television Championship against Trent Beretta. Elsewhere on the show, Keith Lee competed, and Jade Cargill in action in a trios match.
