So I have this on cable, so I checked one show out.

First match was like GLOW type style with silly gimmicks, AJ Lee is not too shabby on commentary.

Next up was a vignette with some Killer Frost inspired character....who was a diver with a dead father and brother and a sexual assault surviv....wait? WHAT WHAT WHAT?!?!?! That tonal shift was more abrupt then the constant camera cuts during a match.

I mean, the matches and gimmicks are pure schtick and the vignettes are like the beginning of Darkside of the Ring :nowords

It's still better than the last two years of ROH TV.

When GLOW-esque gimmickry meets the modern reality era, stuff like this just happens. Don't question it

It's doing better than impact. :draper2

Just need to cut down on the camera cuts because even Kevin Dunn would've said there was too much.

Allegedly it's in the six figures. No idea how they get that number, the show has negative buzz
through syndication which means across a bunch of time slots - i have a feeling its old ppl that leave the tv on at this point :heston

This is in alot of markets......guess those womens rasslin fans who claim the big leagues don't show the enough are not in those markets.

Oh and I wonder what the issue was.....cash or creative? Somethung worse?

Also the in ring work is just terrible......anytime I click on this because hotels have shit channels........the show is still unwatchable.

Saw some people suggest TNA should pick them up, why not, there's not enough "unit" women's tag teams these days

I wouldn't mind that and after they are Hot Potatoing the Knockouts Tag Titles lately they have a good shot to make an impact pun indeed if they arrive on the Scene.
