WWE Hall of Fame inductee Eric Bischoff expressed satisfaction over the recent performance of NXT, in which he participated. He believed that in this week’s episode, NXT outperformed AEW Dynamite in the competition for ratings.
The latest report by WrestleNomics, however, reveals that WWE NXT’s weekly edition only managed to attract an average of 593,000 viewers. This is a considerable decline from the previous week’s viewership, which stood at 632,000.
The episode also posted a 0.13 rating within the significant 18-49 demographic. The show has not experienced such a low demo rating since its July 4, 2023 edition.
When a fan criticized Bischoff’s participation in the show by comparing these numbers with AEW that had higher numbers in the crucial 18-49 demo, which is of primary interest to advertisers, Bischoff responded:
“And STILL beats @AEW. Did you see the quarter hours? You should see the minute-by-minute numbers! ”

Interestingly, this week’s AEW Dynamite earned a viewership of 586,000 on TBS and a 0.17 in the key 18-49 demographic.
