It&#8217;s the biggest audience NXT has had since it drew 841,000 on April 20, 2021, more than two years ago. It&#8217;s among the ten highest audience levels since the start of 2020. The increase in audience was sparked by the heavily-hyped Seth Rollins defense of the World Hvt. Championship against NXT mainstay Bron Breakker, which included promos by Seth and Breakker on Raw the night before.<\/p>\n<p>This week&#8217;s viewership was within 3,000 viewers of the lowest rated episode of AEW Dynamite and within 49,000 total viewers of last week&#8217;s Dynamite. (This week&#8217;s Dynamite viewership isn&#8217;t in yet.) It&#8217;s also within 43,000 viewers of the debut episode of AEW Collision last Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>NXT averaged 578,000 viewers the prior four weeks, so it&#8217;s unlikely NXT will remain within this type of range of AEW&#8217;s two flagship two hour prime time cable shows, but a little turbo boost from Seth&#8217;s special appearance and extra hype on Raw got NXT closer than it has in years.<\/p>\n<p>In the key 18-49 demo, NXT drew a 0.23 rating, up from 0.16 last week and the 0.17 average the prior four weeks. AEW drew a 0.30 rating in that key demo last week, so AEW still has the advantage among the younger demographic. NXT finished no. 2 overall in the cable rankings on Tuesday, <a href=\"https:\/\/showbuzzdaily.com\/articles\/showbuzzdailys-tuesday-6-20-2023-top-150-cable-originals-network-finals.html\">according to Showbuzz Daily<\/a>. Only the College World Series on ESPN outdrew it, drawing a 0.43 in the key demo.<\/p>\n<p>Now check out yesterday&#8217;s WWE Raw Ratings Report <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2023\/06\/21\/wwe-raw-ratings-report\/\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>NEW: Check out our new Ratings Reports Section at links below\u2026<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vip.pwtorch.com\/category\/prowrestlingnews\/ratings\/\">VIP MEMBERS (ad-free website) CLICK HERE: RATINGS REPORTS<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/category\/prowrestlingnews\/ratings\/\">FREE SITE VISITORS CLICK HERE: RATINGS REPORTS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3393105056\"><div id=\"pwtor-1020227992\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>This Tuesday&#8217;s (6\/20) episode of NXT on USA Network drew 773,000 viewers, up from 581,000 the prior week.
