Seth Rollins Title Defense Powers WWE NXT To Second Place On Cable Charts


-- WWE's decision to feature World Champion Seth Rollin defending his title on this week's episode of NXT TV has paid off in a big way as the program turned in arguably one of it's most successful showings ever.

-- Dubbed as a two-part "Gold Rush" theme, the episode drew 773,000 viewers - its highest in over two years - while in the key 18-49 demographic, the show pulled in a 0.23 rating, the best figure in almost three years. That 0.23 rating was not only an over 40% increase week-over-week, but it powered NXT to finish #2 on the Tuesday cable charts, the highest position it has ever attained.
