WWE NXT viewership sees big increase over previous week

This past Tuesday’s WWE NXT saw a sizable viewership increase week-over-week and its best number since last summer.

The show did 744,000 viewers on The CW, up 17% from the prior week’s 637,000 and their highest mark since July 22, 2025. While viewership was up, the 18-49 demo was down to .09, a drop of 25% from the prior week.

It was headlined by NXT North American Champion Ethan Page defending against Shiloh Hill, a four-way NXT Tag Team title eliminator, the finals of an eliminator tourney for the men’s Speed title, and more.

Of note, these numbers are following the latest updated Nielsen Data+Big Panel changes that took effect on January 23.
