WWE NXT ratings rebound for Vengeance Day on Syfy
Tuesday’s special Vengeance Day edition of NXT averaged 525,000 viewers on Syfy. That’s up 31.3 percent from last week and is the best viewership number NXT has done in the four times it’s aired on Syfy between this year and last year.
In the 18-49 demo, NXT drew a 0.11 rating, up 57.1 percent from the previous week. The show finished 48th on cable in that category after falling outside the top 50 for the first week on Syfy.
As compared to the same week in 2021, NXT was down 26.4 percent in viewers and down 31.3 percent in 18-49. That was when NXT was still airing on Wednesdays opposite AEW Dynamite, but it was on the stronger USA Network. It’s in line with recent year-over-year drops.
NXT will be back on USA Network next Tuesday after airing on Syfy for two straight weeks due to the Winter Olympics.
Here’s a look at the viewership and 18-49 demo ratings for NXT when the show has been moved to Syfy due to USA Network coverage of the Olympics. This also occurred for the Summer Olympics last year.
