This week’s episode of WWE NXT fell back in the ratings and viewership from last week’s high. Tuesday night’s show scored a 0.10 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic and 655,000 viewers per Wrestlenomics. These numbers, as always, do not include ESPN Unlimited viewers.

Those rating and audience numbers are down 28.6% and 10.5% respectively from last week’s 0.14 demo rating and audience of 732,000. The rating matched the episode from two weeks ago, which went up against AEW Dynamite Grand Slam France, while the total audience was better than that episode’s 532,000.

As a reminder, Nielsen made an adjustment to its Big Data + Panel numbers in late January, and even the original Big Data + Panel ratings makes ratings difficult to compare to pre-change weeks. That said, WWE NXT is averaging a 0.093 demo rating and 620,000 viewers in 2026 compared to a 0.153 and 695,000 for the same time period in 2025.
