Early reports from NoDQ say TNa got a .6 while RAW did a 3.7.
I expected it to be low, but not that low.

At this rate by next month it will be down to .0. Wont happen. Starting next week Impact starts at 8pm. They will have a chance to hook a crowd and look more competitive in the ratings by garnering that 8pm hour. |

It's kinda like when you play SD vs. Raw 2007 in GM and each week you see the crowds watching on TV diminish if your show ain't doing so well. I expect a 0 at some point at this rate too.

With the way they book and promote, there is nothing shocking about this rating. Vince Mcmahon is alot of things, an idiot isn't one of them. There isn't a large fanbase for the product they are putting out. Adults watch UFC , only hardcore fans still even watch WWE. Kids are what are keeping the wrestling bussiness thriving. What Mcmahon said a few days ago was 100 percent true, he wasn't being an bunghole at all.
When TNA is ready to cater to the kids they will find successs. That Pope segment was awful last night, as was the OJ stuff. This isn't the 90s, that audience is gone. People want good clean fun now, sorry but Russo can't deliver that.
If Jeff Hardy has his bussiness face on right now, he should become the sole face of TNA. They should be spending a ton of $ to advertise the fact that he wrestles there now. If they advertise Jeff on a much higher level, things will get better.

Plus, it would seem that people would just switch over when Raw gets on, making their ratings go to hell anyways. |

Because if it is, I highly doubt they are going to attract a huge audience that will stay with them for weeks after. |

Not a good sign at all. Time for them to step back and take things a little slower next time. You have to learn to crawl before you can run.

Hopefully it improves... there is no more mania hype, and HBK farewell is done with already...plus its live with no spoilers to report... it should be a better rating...we will wait and see |

Looks like everyone took their advice and made the change and did something better with their Monday night.

If they advertise Jeff on a much higher level, things will get better. Sadly, I think you're completely right. The wrestling audience has completely shifted over the past decade and TNA is missing the core viewer demographic. It explains the poor NXT ratings and it ABSOLUTELY explains the TNA ones. I for one, think they've been putting on decent shows as of late, but the rating's evidently getting worse and I don't think the time change is solely to blame. As you mention, TNA is holding the trump card in Jeff Hardy. He's the hottest name in the industry and pretty much their only key to success at this point. I want to see them succeed if only to drive up the quality of the WWE product as well, but at this stage they're a sinking ship and I say that with total respect to the company. |
