WWE NXT Sees Surge in Viewership with Becky Lynch’s Triumphant Return

Published on

A Historic Night: NXT Records Seventh-Highest Audience Total Ever

WWE NXT delivered a stellar performance on Tuesday night, witnessing a significant spike in its viewership on the USA Network. The episode, which saw Becky Lynch make a triumphant return to NXT and clinch the NXT Women’s Championship from Tiffany Stratton, garnered an average of 850,000 viewers. This marks a substantial 26.3 percent increase from the previous week’s numbers.

This viewership milestone places the episode as the seventh-highest in NXT’s history. Moreover, it’s the most-watched episode since October 28, 2020, indicating a renewed interest and excitement among the fans.

In the coveted 18-49 demographic, NXT achieved a rating of 0.26, reflecting a 44.4 percent jump from the previous week. This ties with the best rating NXT has secured in this category since December 18, 2019. Impressively, this episode ranks sixth in terms of ratings in the show’s history. It’s worth noting that three of the episodes that managed to surpass this rating were the initial three weeks when NXT made its debut on the USA Network.

The highlight of the episode was undoubtedly Becky Lynch’s return to NXT. Her victory over Tiffany Stratton to win the NXT Women’s Championship added a layer of excitement and unpredictability to the show, drawing fans in large numbers.

When compared to the same week in 2022, NXT’s performance this week showcased a 16.8 percent rise in overall viewership. Even more impressive is the 73.3 percent surge in the 18-49 demographic, emphasizing the show’s growing appeal among younger audiences.
