WWE NXT Sees Viewership Bump to 641,000, 18-49 Rating Jumps to 0.11

Tuesday night’s WWE NXT averaged 641,000 viewers on The CW, an 18.5% increase from the previous week and the show’s largest audience since February 17. The program posted a 0.11 rating in the key 18-49 demo — up 57.1% from last week and the highest demo number since February 10, marking the second-best 18-49 showing of the year — despite going head-to-head with an NBA playoff game on NBC that led the demo; the telecast finished tied for ninth among 11 English-language network prime-time programs.

Year-over-year, NXT was slightly down overall, with total viewers off 1.7% and the 18-49 rating down 21.4% compared to the same week in 2025. Versus its recent 10-week averages, this week’s episode was up 10.6% in total viewers and 37.5% in the 18-49 demo.
