WWE NXT continues to deliver solid ratings and viewership numbers, despite facing tough competition and the usual end-of-year downturn. According to the latest data from Wrestlenomics, the Dec. 5 episode of NXT garnered a total viewership of 626,000 and a 0.19 rating among the coveted 18-49 demographic.
This week’s numbers may not be as high as some previous episodes, but they are still impressive considering the circumstances. The episode faced stiff competition from the NBA In-Season Tournament quarterfinals, which drew 1.7 million viewers and a .60 rating in the same time slot. Despite this, NXT held its own and maintained a loyal fanbase.
It’s worth noting that NXT has been consistently performing well in the 18-49 demographic, which is a key demographic for advertisers. The show has seen a steady increase in viewership and ratings over the past year, with several episodes surpassing the 700,000 viewers mark.
One factor that may have contributed to the recent ratings success of NXT is the presence of Dominik Mysterio. While he may not have the same “main roster guest star” effect that he used to, Mysterio’s presence as the North American champion has been a draw for fans. However, it’s important to note that NXT’s success is not solely reliant on one superstar, as the show has a strong roster of talented performers.
Despite the challenges faced by NXT, the show has managed to maintain a dedicated fanbase and deliver consistent ratings. This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the wrestlers and creative team behind the scenes.
