Variety has an article with CW President Brad Schwartz talking about the WWE and NXT relationships with the network and how it's been effective in the short time they've worked together.
“It’s been an absolute game changer for the CW, and I think it’s been a game changer for WWE,” said Schwartz “This last quarter that just ended was the highest rated NXT quarter in five years. It’s up 19% year over year.”
"“In adults 18 to 49 and 25 to 54, we’re regularly beating Fox on Tuesday nights. It’s unheard of. So it’s been absolutely crushing for us. It’s one of the big reasons why our network as a whole is up 40% season over season…Besides animation on Fox, [NXT] has the highest concentration of 18-49 and 25-54 on all broadcast.”
The article noted, "Schwartz also said that WWE and CW are “constantly” discussing new ways to expand their relationship, including additional WWE programming on the network"
