CW Network numbers jump as NXT builds momentum
Summary
– NXT viewership climbs to 554,000 for the November 11 episode
– Oba Femi returns to confront Ricky Saints after the Last Man Standing match
– Key demo dips slightly despite overall audience growth
WWE NXT delivered a strong boost in linear viewership on November 11, as the show continued to build heavy interest around its top championship storylines. The CW Network broadcast averaged 554,000 viewers, up from the previous week’s 528,000 total. The P18–49 demographic came in at 0.07, a slight dip from last week’s 0.08.
The biggest moment of the night came at the close of Ricky Saints’ brutal Last Man Standing match against Trick Williams. Oba Femi made a surprise return to NXT television, stepping directly into Saints’ spotlight and announcing his intention to chase the NXT Championship next. His first appearance in months immediately helped fuel added intrigue around the title picture.
The show also crowned a new champion. Jasper Troy defeated El Grande Americano to become the WWE Speed Champion, standing out as one of the night’s most talked-about victories. Multiple developing feuds and story-driven segments filled out the rest of the broadcast, contributing to a strong week of momentum for the NXT brand.
NXT’s weekly numbers reflect only traditional broadcast viewing and do not include CW’s digital streaming data. With fresh rivalries and major returns driving the product, the brand appears set for continued growth.
