WWE NXT 2.0 viewership dropped yet again on January 18.
According to Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics, 587,000 viewers watched the show on Tuesday, and the program drew a 0.11 rating (approximately 149,000 viewers) in the all-important 18-to-49 demographic. These numbers are much lower than last week’s show, which saw a drop as well after WWE released many popular figures of the black and gold brand of NXT that drew 647,000 viewers and scored a 0.14 rating (180,000 viewers) in the same demographic.
This week’s episode of NXT saw the lowest viewership total since December 14, and it is also tied for the lowest-rated show since the brand went live on USA Network. This week’s show featured a main event between Roderick Strong of Diamond Mine and WALTER of Imperium who announced his name change to Gunther following the match, much to the chagrin of the WWE Universe.
