Last night's NXT averaged 692,000 viewers on the USA Network, down 5.7 percent from the previous week.
The demo numbers told a very interesting story. Despite the huge win in overall viewers, Dynamite was actually down 5.7 percent from last week in the 18-49 demo, drawing a 0.33 rating. Dynamite finished sixth on cable in that category.
NXT was up 11.1 percent from last week in the 18-49 demo, finishing 19th on cable with a 0.20 rating. That's among the highest NXT has ever finished on the cable charts.
The combined wrestling audience of 1.626 million viewers was the highest since December 9 of last year and up 3.9 percent from last week.
Dynamite did not lose a single major demo category, including winning in people over 50 with a 0.38 rating to NXT's 0.32. The closest categories were females 12-34 -- where both shows tied with a .08 rating -- and women 18-49. Dynamite had a slim advantage of 0.17 to 0.16 in that category.
The best demo for Dynamite was men 18-49. It finished second on cable with a 0.49 rating, only trailing the late NBA game.
Year-over-year, Dynamite was up 3.1 percent in viewers but down 5.7 percent in 18-49. NXT was down 3.6 percent in viewers and down 13 percent in 18-49.
Here's a look at the last 10 weeks of overall viewership and 18-49 ratings for both shows:
