Live NXT July 11th 2023 Discussion Thread: Stacks battles Joe Coffey to try and free Tony D’Angelo

I don't think he will tho, Wes is already scheduled to defend against Ali unless they throw Dom himself into that angle too

ah thats always a small pet peave but what can you do, maybe itll be a DQ and it turns into a 3 way at GAB

 

[Chris]

I'd like to see Ali "accidentally" cost Dom in his new pretend babyface but actually heel gimmick and then twist it to helping Wes when Wes never wanted help or something

 

[Colt Magnum]

that might been Baron best promo of his career

 

[Y2Jayne]

Your girl was signing autographs at the merch stand last night and taking pictures. I laughed when she said I'll sweet talk you to the fans

She seems very outgoing in real life.

Tuesday night's WWE NXT averaged 671,000 viewers on the USA Network, up 32.1 percent from last week's Fourth of July episode. It's the best audience total for the show since June 20 when Seth Rollins defended his World Heavyweight Championship against Bron Breakker.

This is NXT's third-highest viewership of 2023. The episode featured an appearance by The Judgment Day, which included Finn Balor & Damian Priest defeating Carmelo Hayes & Trick Williams in the main event.

NXT drew a 0.20 rating in the 18-49 demo, which is up 53.9 percent from last week. That's despite NXT going head-to-head with the MLB All-Star Game last night. The game averaged seven million viewers on Fox and drew a 1.61 rating in 18-49.

The number marks NXT's second-highest rating in the 18-49 demo this year. Other than the June 20 episode, it's NXT's best rating since September 2021.

As compared to the same week in 2022, NXT's overall audience was up 15.3 percent while its 18-49 rating was up 42.9 percent.

Listed below are the last 11 weeks of overall viewership and 18-49 demo ratings for NXT, as well as the 10-week averages in both categories. This week's show was up 11.7 percent in overall viewers and up 25 percent in 18-49 as compared to the recent averages.

[Deezy]

[Chris]

Rhea actually had a spike with fuckin Nattie so I'd say she's def up there lmao

 

[Deezy]

Make a callback on the number I was going to admit Rollins was a needle mover, and some rando asshole who brags about having you on ignore comes in with zero context assuming stupid shit.....again.

The Creed Brothers may be staying in WWE NXT for a while longer than what fans had speculated after they lost a “Loser Leaves Town” Match to the Dyad last week on NXT.

This seemed to put an end to their NXT run, as WWE officials have been high on them for a while. It was reported last week that some people in WWE thought they were getting called up, while others thought it was an angle.

This week on NXT, two masked men in Dyad masks were behind Ivy Nile in a promo taped backstage.

Dave Meltzer noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that the two men were The Creeds, and they’re staying in NXT for now. Meltzer speculated that The Creeds might perform under masks for a while until being revealed as part of the storyline.​

Was so pumped for the main roster run aswell.​

 

[Chris]

Yeah I'd heard right after the match last week that they were just planned to continue an NXT angle with it which I found odd then and still find odd now

 

[Unbesiegbar]

Hmm then why the loser leaves town match? Are they going to introduce a new member and have Julius or Brutus become more of a singles guy? I'm guessing Steveson or Thorpe might join up with them, but Idk if I'd be a fan of it. Makes sense since they both seem a bit lacking in the charisma department and while The Creeds aren't exactly big on personality they are over in NXT
