WWE NXT ratings up for No Mercy fallout

WWE NXT ratings got a post-No Mercy bump on Tuesday night.

Tuesday’s episode of NXT averaged 857,000 viewers on the USA Network, up from the 636,000 viewers the show drew last week. This is NXT’s best viewership total since October 2020.

In the 18-49 demo, NXT drew a 0.22 rating, up from the 0.18 rating it did last week. The number is down from the demo ratings NXT drew on September 19 (0.24 rating) and September 12 (0.26 rating).

NXT faced competition from the MLB Wild Card playoff round last night.

Year-over-year, NXT’s viewership and demo rating both had big increases. The October 4, 2022 episode of NXT averaged 625,000 viewers and drew a 0.13 rating in 18-49.

Last night’s show featured NXT’s fallout from No Mercy. The episode was headlined by Dominik Mysterio winning the NXT North American Championship back from Trick Williams in a No Mercy rematch. There was also an appearance by NXT Women’s Champion Becky Lynch.

Next week, NXT and AEW Dynamite are going head-to-head on Tuesday night. Dynamite is airing on Tuesday due to a scheduling conflict with the MLB playoffs. NXT has announced a loaded lineup with appearances by John Cena, Paul Heyman, Cody Rhodes, and Asuka.
