WWE NXT Rating Rises, Audience Hits Four Month High

This week’s episode of WWE NXT was up in the ratings, while the total viewership hit its highest point since February. Tuesday night’s episode scored a 0.11 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic and 668,000 viewers per Programming Insider. Those numbers were up 22.2% and 9.5% respectively from the previous week’s 0.09 demo rating and audience of 610,000.

The demo rating was the best for the show since the May 5th episode also had a 0.11. Meanwhile, the total viewership was the highest since the Fabuary 17th show had an audience of 744,000. The FIFA World Cup led the way on FOX with a 2.06 demo rating and 6.778 million viewers, followed by the post-game show (1.03 demo rating, 3.569 million)

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 0.085 demo rating and 596,000 viewers in 2026 compared to a 0.164 and 717,000 for the same time period in 2025.
