TNA is celebrating some good news this week: the Impact! rating rose from a 1.1 to a 1.2 this week (technically, 1.16), according to PW Torch’s Wade Keller.
Sure, 0.1 isnt’ that big of a deal to some shows, but it’s a step in the right direction for TNA. On the flipside, this has happened before, and the rating fell right back down to the 1.1 range the next week. If TNA gets a 1.2 or 1.3 next week, then they should really start to get excited.
Apparently, the highest rated segment was Mick Foley’s confrontation with Sting, which drew a 1.22 rating. Foley also drew well with his “big” announcement last week from Las Vegas–a 1.31. TNA might want to consider having him on the show a little more, because he does seem to draw in higher audience.

In other TNA news, it appears all involved in the Monster’s Ball match were pissed off at Steve “Mongo” McMichael, according to Pro Wrestling.com. He was out of position as a ref the entire match, and he was counting too slowly.
On the brightside, he did help open that pesky bag of tacks!

Debra…I found her attractive if that’s what you’re referring to, PF. As for her as a person…I really don’t know. I know she and Stone Cold had some pretty serious problems, and I won’t pretend to know what went on there.

I think the timing for that rating was perfect because the new audience was able to see TNA at its best and hopefully be intrigued enough to stick around.

I actually enjoyed the very little I saw on iMPACT, maybe for once they’re gonna steer this one the right way.
YES I GOT THE JINX IN.
But really, at first the Vegas show was blah, but this week wasn’t a half bad ep.

Lex,
Thats what I meant and I also found her attractive. I wanted to see if anyone else did.
