I'm guessing that's US. Funny how TNA's US ratings are beginning to drop close to its best UK ratings.

WWE took a rating drop this week too. I guess it's the height of summer and people have better things to do than sit inside and watch wrestling. Except us lol.

I wouldn't quite say it's funny lol. If you add the repeat, as I do for TNA each week, it was up by around 400,000. But yeah, first run took a drop. Both TNA and WWE hit 2015 lows this week.

How is the rating for the UK in past weeks? At a time it used to be Challenge's highest rated show. No idea if it still is.

I haven't looked to be honest. I know it's not Challenge's highest rated show regularly though.

Ah so the opposite to how a WWE TLC match is then.

I guess it wont be long before we get a TNA Iron Man match where the winner is the guy who gets the most losses.

“TNA has announced via Facebook that executive vice president Andy Barton has left the company. Barton worked with Dixie Carter at her management/marketing company Trifecta Entertainment from 1996 to 2002 and then moved toTNA.

The statement reads: “We wish TNA executive Andy Barton all the best as he pursues a new opportunity. Glad to have CSO Eric Sherman on board as we look to build on our powerful global brand, continue our rapid international growth and expand onto emerging platforms.”

Obvious questions going to be asked on the back of this.

Most recent ratings for Impact in the UK

June 7: 122k
June 14: Didn't make the top 10 less than 107k
June 21: 138k

As noted its no longer Challenge's top rated show.

The other dave says-

Quote:
“The Andy Barton departure from TNA is a far bigger story than is being played up. Barton has been with Dixie Carter since 1996, long before TNA ,and was described to me as the person who would know more about the state of the company than anyone except Dixie Carter.”

In other words more loltna coming, unless Panda have included a hush clause in any pay off he got.

It pains me to say this, but unlike Spike in America where it drew the same rating every week no matter who was on it- the ratings falling off a cliff here- well... that suggests that on some level.....**shudders** Hogan and/or the other stars from back in the day were legitimately good for 100k+ freeview viewers here.

Say it ain't so.

Thats a shame its not highly rated as it once was. Still its odd why a wrestling show is on a Game Show channel.

I presume it's because Sky had to find a home for it when they shut down Bravo and Challenge was thought to be the best fit out of their channels. WWE was still airing programmes on Sky1 (not sure if they still do) so that probably wasn't thought of.

I think part of the WWE deal is they can't show any other wrestling promotion on any Sky channel.

So pretty much a Freeview channel has to air it then.
