When Impact was going to air on 1-4 everyone screamed they would get there lowest ratings ever, they ended up getting there highest ratings. TNA is the underdog obviously, doesn't mean they wont come out on top after a while Just like above, things are not always as they seem. TNA will not consistantly draw that number and the bigger issue was whether or not they could draw some of the WWE audience....they did not. You wanna give me the lotto numbers for next week since you can see into the future? I didn't say TNA was going to come out on Monday and automatically beat WWE, I said doesn't mean they wont after a while, thus not saying they will not saying they wont. No one gave WCW a chance when they debuted Nitro either, and there ratings sucked after there first show. History can always repeat itself, and honestly WWE is in close to the same position they were when Nitro started product wise (Noticed I said product wise and not financially or production wise, because I know people like to change how things are said on here)

Lets not compare this to the monday night wars, because A. It isnt going to be a war, and B. It furthers the fact that TNA are WCW part two, without learning where they went wrong the first time...

I wonder if WWE will ever acknowledge TNA on their programming...
I doubt it TBH.

^ Probably not but it would be so funny if they did one of those little Raw Fact things a long time after and said: "Raw was the highest rated wrestling show on Mondays for the 30th week in a row.. Is it time to go back to Thursdays? Correct answer is yes.."

I'm just hoping that it at least forces the WWE Creative Team to up there game for Raw.
It's funny how TNA are making out they are re-starting the Monday Night Wars, yet they are blatently scared to do so until after March since it will be the WWE's Build up to Wrestlemania.
While it is early for TNA to move permanantly to Mondays, I don't think there is much point in waiting though. They might aswell do, even if there is a risk that the viewers that watch TNA on thursdays will watch WWE on the Monday.

This won't be 'Monday Night Wars' so much as 'Monday Night Massacre' on the part of WWE.
TNA just isn't ready to be direct competition yet. They need to work out the formatting of their TV show, successfully run some live programs consistently, and gain stability in their roster before they can even take a dent out of WWE's considerable viewership. It could be cool to be able to click back-and-forth on Mondays once again just like the late 90's, but in all honesty the novelty will wear off very quickly, and I know I'll find myself not caring about TNA's show past week 2.
