Tuesday’s NXT television show produced 601,000 viewers for USA Network, according to Showbuzzdaily.com. The viewership count was down from the 717,000 viewers who watched last week’s show.

Powell’s POV: NXT drew a .14 in the 18-49 demographic and finished 31st in the Tuesday cable ratings, which was down from last week’s .17 rating. The viewership count was the lowest it’s been on USA Network since March 17. Next week’s show features the reboot and the wedding of Indi Hartwell and Dexter Lumis, so one can only assume that the numbers will bounce back.

  1. Adam Cole moves the needle. Once he left, the eyeballs left? Or is it because NXT is losing it’s appeal as a whole?

    • Yes

    • Could it be people just not wanting to watch a taped episode of a show that’s supposedly undergoing a massive overhaul starting this week?

      If things pop back up next week then that might be it. If not, unless the reboot really catches on they’re in trouble.

      It doesn’t help that there are rumors of Vince flexing his muscle on the direction of the show.

      • Thotless panicking. He’d be the same guy on the titanic telling everyone it’s all okay as the boat is going down
