Niners Fan in CT Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 There's no rhyme or reason why some weeks are up over 900k and some aren't. Maybe whatever the basketball game is. They certainly aren't losing viewers to NXT though like they were around Survivor Series. NXT is the same 700k every week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Someone said Masked Singer and Survivor both had really strong numbers, so maybe that's why. Shrug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I KNOW HE DIDN'T MEAN IT LIKE THAT, but it's like hearing my mom say something unintentionally offensive. I just shake my head. That was a Booker T "Tell me he didn't just say that." moment.

Goodear Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 I don’t like the show opening with the tag teams in the ring for the introductions. I would think the idea is to get the show off and running but you need to actually do that then. Joining in media res is a fine idea but you need to give the audience something exciting to grab onto. As it was, you cut the pop of the entrances for the lesser pop of the introductions. If it’s me, you either do the normal intros or start with the bell ringing. If you start at the bell ring, you rely on your announcers to bring the audience up to speed. Nyla being ladies champ is fine I guess. She’s still got some issues pertaining to her stuff (foot work, pacing, air of menace) but she’s not a terrible option as she stands out. Riho hasn’t changed in that I don’t believe in her offense and I don’t feel an emotional connection to her due to that disconnect and lack of character. I have no interest in her chasing. The division is on one hand shallow and still suffers from people not being around (Riho previously and Statlander now). My thirst for Dustin-Hager has cooled a ton. It seems so long ago without the two of them acknowledging each other that I’m over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Campbell Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Statlander was in the backstage segment with Nyla. Britt, Bunny, Statlander, Leva, and Swole were all backstage when Nyla and Kenny had their discussion. The premier of Survivor, and also Chicago PD probably had an impact on the viewership, because PD was coming off a big cliffhanger last week.

Goodear Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 There wasn’t anything on the show that had the build as good as the whipping so that’s really not surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 But weaker episodes have done better ratings as well as you'd think they'd have some holdover of people who tuned in for that. "Well, I've seen my whipping for the month. Maybe next month!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Every week when I look at the ratings, I'm stunned by how many people watch cable news opinion shows. It's really cutting into NXT's main demo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eikerir Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) Random thoughts: - Overall the best episode of Dinamite or in the Top 3. - Thank god the Nightmare Collective is over, but I'm gonna miss Brandi saying Xzibit on commentary. - Holy shit, how over is Page right now? He was getting a much bigger reaction than Omega tonight. I can't get enough of him booting people in the face every show. He should come out of this storyline as a HUGE star and is on his way to be the most popular guy in the company. - Also loved Kenny showing some edge and returning the kick to Scorpio Sky instead of being the classic nice Kenny he always is. This was an excellent match and much better than the title change in the cruise. Perfect pace. - That DVD from the top by Nyla was beautiful. - I loved then Excalibur said you could buy an eye-patch on their website and JR and Tony were like "wtf seriously?". Meeeeerch Freaaaaaak. Edited February 14, 2020 by eikerir 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seriously, those shows have always been strong as far as ratings go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That used to be true though with the remix it has enough of a remix to make not sound completely like Brain Stew. Actually does sound better with the recent one he's using. Though the one he first used is readily available on Youtube so I'm sure it's a matter of time before the newer versions gets on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
