WWE NXT ratings down for Heatwave go-home show
Tuesday night’s WWE NXT averaged 675,000 viewers on The CW, down 7.3 percent from last week. This ties the lowest audience total the show has done since July 22.
The episode took place from Philadelphia last night and was the go-home show for Sunday’s Heatwave PLE. It drew a 0.15 rating in the 18-49 demo, down 11.8 percent from last week and marking the lowest rating NXT has done in that category since July 15.
NXT finished seventh in prime time on all of television in the key demo. The top show for the night was America’s Got Talent on NBC, which drew a 0.32 rating.
As compared to the same week in 2024, when the show still aired on USA Network, NXT’s overall viewership was up 5.6 percent while the 18-49 rating was down 6.3 percent, so the audience continues to skew older on network television than it did on cable.
Listed below are the last 11 weeks of viewership numbers and 18-49 demo ratings for NXT, as well as the 10-week average in both categories. This week’s episode was down 2.4 percent in viewers and 6.3 percent in 18-49 as compared to the recent averages.
