NXT Draws 602,000 Viewers on December 23

The December 23, 2025, episode of WWE NXT on The CW Network drew 602,000 viewers, marking a slight decline from the previous week's audience of 607,000. The show maintained its rating of 0.08 in the key 18-49 demographic, unchanged from the December 16 episode, though down from 0.09 two weeks earlier. Broadcast from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida, the two-hour program featured intense in-ring action and escalating storylines that continued to engage fans both on television and online.

The modest drop of 5,000 viewers, or about 0.8 percent, represented the lowest total audience for NXT since the December 2 episode, which attracted 532,000 viewers. Officials noted that these figures account only for linear television viewership and exclude streaming or digital platforms. For context, Nielsen's updated ratings methodology, implemented in early September, has altered measurement standards, complicating direct comparisons to earlier periods. Through the end of 2025, NXT has averaged 674,000 viewers and a 0.14 rating in the 18-49 demographic, surpassing last year's year-to-date figures of 649,000 viewers and a 0.184 rating during the same timeframe.
