Last week, “WWE NXT” attracted its second lower public of the year, plunging below the brand of 700,000 for their first show of the month. However, with a solid card entering NXT Roadblock from Madison Square Garden last Tuesday, the development brand managed to bounce back.
According to The programming initiate, “NXT” has an average of 732,000 viewers and posted a 0.15 in the demographic group of 18-49. When you compare the two categories to the previous week, the number of total viewers increased by 5%, while the demo 18-49 even remained at 0.15. Despite the “NXT”, they can bounce back in the viewer, the 18-49 demo of the program continues to decrease throughout 2025, the 12% category in the last four weeks.
“NXT” also faced a rigid competition on Tuesday evening, with two basketball games drawing slightly higher figures on the cable. The match of the conference of the west coast conference of the NCAA between Gonzaga and Saint Mary’s attracted 911,000 viewers on ESPN, while the NBA match between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Indiana Pacers collected 851,000 viewers on TNT.
Although the demo 18-49 does not provide the “NXT” results could hope, it cannot be said for their audience compared to the period last year. Since March 2024, the public of the development brand has increased by 19% compared to an average of 603,000. In addition, “NXT” has attracted more than 800,000 viewers three times since the beginning of 2025, and with Wrestlemania 41 weekend on the horizon, I hope they will once again eclipse this number in the near future.
