Rating For Thursday's Impact Disappoints, TNA Wrestler Reacts To Carter's Speech

Posted on: November 7, 2009 @ 3:00 pm

-- Coming off the heels of the previous week's Hulk Hogan-fueled edition of TNA iMPACT!, Thursday's show took a 13.1 percent dip in the ratings. This week's show averaged a 1.08 cable rating, disappointingly down from the previous week's 1.24 number featuring the wrestling legend's big announcement.

The first hour of Thursday's broadcast averaged a 1.07 rating while the second hour drew a 1.08. Dixie Carter's speech at the top of the show drew a solid 1.10 first quarter-hour rating, but dropped down to a 0.98 for the second quarter-hour. The show's rating peaked at the beginning of the second hour with a strong 1.16 rating. However, TNA was unable to retain its audience towards the conclusion of the show as the main event pitting Matt Morgan and Hernandez vs. Team 3D drew a mere 1.05. (source: www.pwtorch.com)

-- As seen on Thursday's episode of iMPACT!, TNA President Dixie Carter addressed the numerous changes made by the company in recent weeks to the talent roster. One TNA wrestler has gone on record with his thoughts regarding her speech. Here is what he told Mike Aldren of the Wrestling Globe Newsletter: "I have no idea why Dixie wanted that to air. She sounded terrified. After the meeting there were a lot of guys rolling their eyes. This locker room isn't one big happy family as [Dixie] wants us to portray publicly. Everyone is divided over the idea of Hogan coming in, and not in a good way."
