The Wednesday Night battle between WWE NXT and AEW Dynamite saw a shift this week, as AEW Dynamite pulled ahead in total viewership following several weeks of close competition. Both shows featured major storyline developments, but it was Dynamite’s Blood & Guts match that gave it the edge.

According to Programming Insider, AEW Dynamite on November 12, 2025 averaged 600,000 viewers on TBS, beating WWE NXT’s 554,000 viewers from November 11, 2025 on The CW Network. This marks the first time Dynamite has outperformed NXT in viewership since both shows started airing head-to-head on network television.

In the key P18–49 demographic, Dynamite scored a 0.15 rating, more than double NXT’s 0.07 rating for the week. This performance was helped by Dynamite’s main event — a dramatic Men’s Blood & Guts match — where Jon Moxley tapped out in shocking fashion.

Meanwhile, NXT featured several standout segments, including Oba Femi’s return to confront Ricky Saints, but couldn’t maintain momentum from the prior week. These numbers reflect only linear television viewership and do not include streaming numbers from MAX, The CW app, or other digital platforms.
