Rhodes To The Top Debut Episode Beats WWE NXT 2.0 In 18-49 Demographic
WWE's developmental brand embarks on a Road 2.0 The Bottom.
The viewership data is in for the debut of Rhodes to the Top, the TNT reality series documenting the lives and careers of AEW power couple Cody and Brandi Rhodes.
Rhodes to the Top finished with a total of 422,000 P2+ viewership including 227,000 in the key 18-49 demographic, making for a P18-49 rating of 0.17. This was enough for the show to finish 16th amongst original cable telecasts on the night.
The episode went out after this Wednesday's episode of AEW Dynamite on TNT, broadcasting at 10 PM ET.
Though it's a completely different kind of show, the reality series actually ended up outdoing WWE NXT 2.0 in the 18-49 demographic this week. The developmental brand's 0.14 P18-49 rating would have seen it finish below Rhodes to the Top in the night's cable rankings if they went out on the same evening. NXT 2.0 did, however, hold an advantage over Cody and Brandi's show in overall viewership, averaging 655,000 across its two hours.
This week's episode of AEW Dynamite held up well from last week's Grand Slam special, finishing atop Wednesday's cable rankings for the sixth consecutive week with a 0.45 P18-49 rating.
