On the topic of NWSL benefiting from World Cup viewership, I can at least offer my anecdotal story. I have been a long-time fan of the sport and watched tons of (mostly) La Liga back when I was in grad school (early 2010's). However, since then, I haven't had much time/access to watch.
I picked up a YouTube TV sub to watch the world cup and decided to just stick with it for now. Originally, my intention was to keep up with the Revs/MLS, but found that the NWSL is actually way more available to watch compared to the MLS since I don't have an Apple TV subscription as well.
There’s also NWSL+, the league’s streaming platform that has many of the games live, and all of the replays after a 24 hour delay for an email address.
