Last night's NXT averaged 841,000 viewers on the USA Network, up 4.5 percent from last week's Tuesday debut.
In the 18-49 demo, NXT drew a 0.23 rating, also up 4.5 percent from last week. The show finished 27th in 18-49 on the cable charts last night. That's far lower than last week due to news coverage of the Derek Chauvin verdict taking up much of the cable charts, but it's a good sign for NXT that it was up despite the significant competition.
The other demo categories were remarkably similar to last week. All were either the same or slightly up:
- Women 18-49: 0.19 (same as last week)
- Men 18-49: 0.27 (up 3.9 percent)
- People 18-34: 0.10 (same as last week)
- Females 12-34: 0.09 (up 12.5 percent)
- Males 12-34: 0.15 (up 7.1 percent)
- People 25-54: 0.27 (same as last week)
- People over 50: 0.41 (up 2.5 percent)
Year-over-year, NXT was up 26.5 percent in overall audience and up 27.8 percent in 18-49. Of course, that comparison is to when NXT was going head-to-head with AEW Dynamite.
In the other categories, NXT was up 26.7 percent year-over-year with women 18-49, up 22.7 percent with men 18-49, even with people 18-34, down 18.2 percent with females 12-34, up 150 percent with males 12-34, up 28.6 percent with people 25-54, and up 20.6 percent with people over 50.
