7/14 NXT Ratings Fall To Historic Low In Key Demo

7/14 WWE NXT ratings saw a sharp decline, as the show faced strong competition from the MLB All-Star Game on Tuesday night.

7/14 NXT Ratings Hit Historic Low in 18-49 Key Demo

In the key 18–49 demographic, NXT posted a 0.05 rating, which was down 58.3% from last week. This is the lowest rating the show has recorded since leaving the WWE Network in 2019.

The significant drop came as NXT went head-to-head with Major League Baseball’s All-Star Game, which aired on FOX and dominated television for the night. The game drew 8.675 million viewers and scored a 1.83 rating in the 18–49 demo, far outperforming all other programming.

As a result, WWE NXT ranked last among network television shows in both total viewers and the key demographic for the evening.

When compared to the same week in 2025, NXT’s overall viewership declined by 9.4%, while the 18–49 rating dropped by 58.3%, highlighting a notable year-over-year decrease.

Despite the downturn, such fluctuations are not uncommon when wrestling programming goes up against major live sports events with broad mainstream appeal.
