Details On USA Network’s Reaction To NXT’s Declining Ratings

NXT has gone through some major changes this year as the show was moved from Wednesday nights to Tuesday nights, and last month NXT was rebranded. WWE introduced a different version of NXT in the form of NXT 2.0 and it seems that the company is looking to take the brand in a bit of a different direction.

This week’s episode of NXT averaged 632,000 viewers, and viewership was down from the 655,000 viewers who tuned into last week’s episode. The show also received a 0.13 in the 18-49 key demographic, which was the lowest rating in the demo since NXT was rebranded.

Andrew Zarian of the Mat Men Pro Wrestling podcast recently took to Twitter to report that a source at USA Network claimed there was disappointment over NXT’s numbers, but the hope is that things will improve going f

“The is all to bring a new younger viewer who is connected with pop culture & trends. Needless to say, the demo numbers are disappointing but we are hopeful this is just a bump in the road”

Have you been enjoying NXT 2.0 so far? Sound off in the comments below.
