– Showbuzz Daily has the Tuesday television numbers for last night’s episode of WWE NXT. As previously noted, last night’s episode aired on tape delay on USA Network. This week’s show saw another drop in viewership. However, the key demo actually saw an overall increase.
Last night’s edition of WWE NXT averaged 660,000 viewers. The audience was down slightly from last week’s show, which drew 688,000 viewers.
In the P18-49 key demo ratings, NXT drew a 0.16. That’s actually up from last week’s number, which was a 0.15. Despite the increase in ratings, NXT actually fell down in the cable TV rankings due to coverage of Hurricane Ian.
