WWE NXT kicked off a new era on Tuesday, October 1. The premiere episode of NXT on the CW Network was a showcase that almost felt like a WWE PLE. By all measures, this show was a success not only for the night but set the tone for the brand in the years to come.
While television ratings are a dated model for measuring the impact of television, the October 1 episode of WWE NXT was a strong event. According to Wrestlenomics, the show did 895,000 viewers which is the highest the show has done since October 10, 2023. For those that love to get on social media and argue about television ratings, this was certainly a win by all accounts.
