Week 14!
NXT 548 Thousand Viewers!
AEW 967 Thousand Viewers!
DETAILS BELOW!
Hey guys! So i have to go to the store before i can do the demos, but its gonna be a bit different this time, the only demo we have is the 18 to 49, NXT was not in the top 50 shows on Wednesday, it was number 66, so the only demo it shows is the 18 to 49, so while AEWs full demos will be shown im afraid we or atleast i dont know the demos for NXT besides one in particuler!
Either way when i get back and cook dinner, i will add the demos and add in a special 2019 wrap up for both shows overal general viewership...AND add in the all inportant WWE Forums Ratings that ive yet to add! see yall soon!
Week 13!
NXT 831 Thousand Viewers (WWE Forums Rating Coming Soon)
Well for the christmas day episode of NXT the show actually did fairly well, the show maintained the normal amount of viewers it gets every week, and despite AEW not having a episode of Dynamite NXTs number didnt really go up that much, perhaps indicateing that the viewership for both shows is seperate, people who watch AEW dont watch NXT and those who watch NXT likely dont watch AEW.
And ofcourse it is time for the demos, majority of the demos actually dropped, 18 to 49 males and females dropped, 25 to 54 dropped aswell, and 12 to 34 males and females stayed the same from last week. interesting the biggest icnrease was the 50+ demo, which ofcourse WWEs core audience, the fact 25 to 54 is so low, yet 50+ is so high, indicates majority of their audience is over the age of 54.

Well after the tie that was last weeks episodes of NXT and AEW, NXT has taken the lead once again, NXTs lead against AEW this week is not as much as previous weeks but still note worthy. While NXt was not effected at all by the big impeachment event that happened yesterday, the coverage of the event did take a large portion of younger viewers, AEWs core audience, but it did take some away from NXT aswell i the older demos, but in the end NXT has had a first tonight, not only defeated AEW in the overal rating, but in the demos aswell as you will see below.
AEW
18 to 49 ------------------ 12 to 34 ----------------- 25 to 54 ----------------- 50+

Males 0.31 (-3)-------- Males 0.19 (+2)
AEW and NXT Traded various victorys and ties all over the demos both tieing in 25 to 54, AEW winning females 12 to 34 but losing in males 12 to 34, NXT winning in Females 18 to 49 but losing in Males 18 to 49, its unclear just how much the impeachment effected the ratings, it was trending all over the internet and on CCNs coverage of the event majority was a younger audience, perhaps this combined with NXTs stacked card gave NXT the lead this week. Next week is when we will know for certain what the cause was, either way share your thoughts below and have a great day!

Well, for the first time we have ourselves a tie, AEW and NXT both had the same viewership, which si super interesting and it makes next weeks number super interesting, as the odds of both shows tieing two weeks in a row is unheard of, will AEW retake the lead? perhaps will NXT retake the lead? NXT has a stacked card next week so we will have to wait and see, but for now, we got the demos to look at!

Well as i stated for the previous weeks ratings, one of the theorys was that NXt got a PPV bump from Survivor Series and War Games, both for the Go Home shows and the aftermatch show, and the ratings would seem to suggest that theory, as AEW has taken the lead once again from NXT. AEWs viewers increased by 28.3% while NXTs viewers increased by 4.3%. Both shows were within just 0.7% of eachother, a difference of just 6,000 viewers. And as you can imagine, the demos reflect a very simuler story, so lets take a look.

Week 9!

AEW 663 Thousand Viewers (WWE Forums Rating 8/10)
Its week 9 of the Wednesday Night War, and coming off of Survivor Series and War Games NXT has won for the second week in a row, howevere there are two key things to note, firstly this was the post Survivor Series and War Games edition of NXT, so yes people will want to see the aftermatch of those two shows, so NXT wining again may be a given depending on ones perspective, next week as you might imagien is key, seeing where things go from here as we head into december. Right now this week both shows had a decrease in viewers, though AEWs was a much bigger drop. AEW dropped by 25.7% while NXT only dropped 11.5%, and despite AEW taking the loss in the overal rating, they did once again stay in the lead, in the all important demos, lets go ahead and take a closer look.

Males 0.31 (-8)-------- Males 0.15 (-5)
The story interestingly enough remains the same, AEW wins in all demos except 50+, they barely beat NXT in the 25 to 54 range, it will be very interesting to see where we land in january, which is where things are expected to level out for awhile, and things will stay steadily around a certain amount, averages will form, and we will see where it goes from there.

Well with Survivor Series this weekend Triple H announced on Raw that its a open invitation for any Raw or Smackdown superstars to come on over to NXT, so WWE brought in the big guns this week and it has paid off for them, NXT for the first time in 8 weeks has passed AEW in viewers, but ofcourse one has to wonder if this is just due to the Survivor Series angle going on, next weeks number is gonna be very important, and the week after that, as we will find out if this was just due to Survivor Series, or if NXT has truely taken the lead. Now lets dive into the details.
NXT with a big 22% increase in viewers compared to last week AEW with a 6% decrease in viewers, the two shows within 2.5% distance from eachother, around 23 thousand viewers apart. But now let us look at the all important demos!
AEW
18 to 49 ------------------ 12 to 34 ----------------- 25 to 54 ---------------- 50+
Females 0.26 (-5)--- Females 0.15 (-6) ----Everyone 0.42 (-3) -Everyone 0.29 (0)
Males 0.52 (-3)------- Males 0.27 (-9)
NXT
18 to 49 ------------------ 12 to 34 ---------------- 25 to 54 ---------------- 50+
Females 0.22 (+4)--- Females 0.12 (+2) Everyone 0.35 (+6)- Everyone 0.40 (+5)
Males 0.39 (+7)------- Males 0.20 (+3)
Whats so interesting is that while yes AEW did lose in the overal rating, they did win in the demos, infact AEW Dynamite was the number 8 show in the demos, while NXT was the number 14, a fair bit behind.
No doubt survivor series had a big impact, Raw and Smackdown talent coming to NXT braught the rating up enough to beat AEW this week, but what happens after survivor series? does WWE make Rawand Smackdown superstar invasions the norm? or does everything go back to normal and AEW beats NXT again? or is this what NXT needed to get ahead and stay ahead even if things go back to normal? these are questions we will have to wait to get the answers to, in the mean time share your thoughts below!

Week 6!
NXT 813 Thousand Viewers (WWE Forums Rating 8/10)
AEW 822 Thousand Viewers (WWE Forums Rating 7/10)
Well, now we are at the stage where things will get interesting, with the world series over both shows had a big increase in viewers, the first increase in the 6 weeks since this war began, 8 weeks if you count the prologue when NXT first aired. NXT with a huge 40% increase in viewers from last week, a big time number for them no doubt, AEW had an increase aswell with a 8% increase. Putting the shows within just 9 thousand viewers apart, a 1.1% difference of viewership. Now then, lets get into the all important demos. Now since i didnt show the demos of last weeks, because last weeks rating didnt matter ll that much due to the world series, i will simply show the numbers for this weeks, you can look at the last few weeks numbers to see how they have changed,
So i think nows a good time for me to orginize the demos, to make it easier for you to see how its changed, here is how it works, i will list the age group above, then female then male numbers, beside both numbers will be a show of increase of decrease compared to last weeks numbers, the amount it went up or down by, rather then me rattle on about them, i will keep it nice and tighty for your reading pleasure, so lets begin. (QUick note the increase or decrease wont be involved this time, as once again, i didnt put the world series ones as that one didnt matter, it was gonna be bad anyway, so think of this like a tiny reset, you can see below to see how they have improved or not improved)
18 to 49 ------------------ 12 to 34 ---------------- 25 to 54 ----------------- 50+
Females 0.23 ---------- Females 0.11 ------- Everyone 0.38 -------- Everyone 0.28
Males 0.46 -------------- Males 0.27
And now let us go over to the demos for NXT!
18 to 49 ------------------ 12 to 34 ---------------- 25 to 54 ---------------- 50+
Females 0.21 ---------- Females 0.13 ------- Everyone 0.34 ------- Everyone 0.34
Males 0.38 -------------- Males 0.16
Keep in mind the reason 25 to 54 and 50+ doesnt list specifics is it just lists people in that age group, no specific genders.
So as always share your thoughts and ALSO let me know what you think of the new formatting of the demos!

AEW 759 Thousand Viewers (WWE Forums Rating 7/10)
Now i know what you are thinking..this looks horrible for BOTH shows!...but truth is this is not a number to take seriously, why? lets dive in.
Both shows had major competition, like i said in my last post at the moment im writing this, The World Series was tonight, or last night rather when these shows where on air, and the world series drew in a gigantic 23.013 MILLION...yes..Million, bigger then any of the previous weeks, not to mention you had other huge shows liek the goldbergs with 4 million, Survivor with 6 million, chicago med and chicago fire with 7 million.
Also of note the world series scored super high in AEWs core demos, that ofcours ebeing the younger audience, they also got the older audience, taking NXTs main demo aswell, thus both shows suffered a huge blow, you can fidn the numbers below in a few moments, i wanna put this here now so it doesnt delete my progress again like last time lol

Ima be honest, im pretty frustraited right now, i did this already, switched tabs to figure otu the average rating from this very forum taking all your votes, and the tab i was on refreashed and i lost all progress, so instead of mention last weeks numbers, im just gonna keep it simple and tell you what they got and confirm if its better or worse then last weeks. Truth be told i dont even know if any of you even read this part, the details of the numbers, props to you if you do i do a good bit of work figuring the numbers out comparing and giving the details, so if you do read this, thanks. Now lets get on with this i guess.
So AEW decreased by 5% this week NXt decreased by 1%, its worth noting the world series was last night so, thats probably why they dropped in viewers a good bit.
So lets do it, AEW allmost increased in every catagory, we got females increaseing in the 18 to 49 demo with 0.28 (was 0.23) and males with 0.62 (was 0.65) females increased males decreased AEW got a nice increase in the all important 12 to 34 range as thats where life long fans are created, females 0.20 (was 0.13) males 0.43.(was 0.36) in the 25 to 54 range we got 0.46 which is lower then last weeks 0.50, and lastly in the 50+ we got 0.25. a decrease from last weeks 0.33, so AEW grew in the younger audience which is essiental, so even if they went below 1 million it was a success, as majority of the younger demos increased.
Now lets talk NXT, in the 18 to 49 range they got a simuler bump in the female audience just like AEW got, females 0.19 (was 0.14) males 0.23 (was 0.27). In the all important 12 to 34 range we got females 0.12 (was 0.08) males 0.11 (was 0.20) So a big drop in the males there. in the 25 to 54 we got 0.26 (was 0.24) and lastly in the 50+ 0.33 (was 0.35)
AEW did win but the world series undoubtably hurt both shows, as Dave Meltzer has said we will only really have a clear idea of the landscape within a few months, after everything has settled down. As always visit here every thursday for the ratings! Also i shown last weeks numbers anway lol.
