Q1: Impact opened with a 0.82 rating for Hulk Hogan starting the show before being interrupted by the Aces & Eights. There was also one commercial.

Q2: Impact dipped to a show-low 0.75 rating for Chavo Guerrero vs. Bobby Roode. There was also one commercial.

Q3: Impact increased to a 0.82 rating for Kurt Angle calling out AJ Styles before being interrupted by Mr. Anderson. This was followed by one commercial and Jay Bradley vs. Christian York in a Gut Check tournament match.

Q4: Impact dipped slightly to a 0.80 rating for various backstage segments and two full commercial breaks.

Q5: Impact increased to a 0.88 rating for Velvet Sky vs. Gail Kim, one commercial, and video packages. This was the lowest rated Q5 in over a year, dating back to April 2012.

Q6: Impact dipped to a 0.85 rating for Kenny King vs. Chris Sabin vs. Petey Williams in a three way X Division title match, one commercial, and Aces & Eights backstage.

Q7: Impact remained at a 0.85 rating for Christopher Daniels vs. Hernandez, one commercial, and the majority of D'Lo Brown vs. Joseph Park in the main event.

Q8: Impact increased to a show-high 0.91 rating for the end of Brown-Park, one commercial, and the Sting-Bully Ray contract signing for the final nine minutes of the show. This was the lowest rated Q8 of the year.

show-low for Chavo
Doesn't surprise me. But yeah, low ratings, although I won't worry about this week and the next one much since they're going back to 9 PM soon.

Eh, this is why I never pay attention to ratings. I just started watching TNA again a couple weeks ago and have been loving it. I thought last week was just fine.

Ratings and the quality of the show never equal. In 2010 and 2011, TNA had 200-400k more viewers than right now, and those episodes, while they might were more intriguing, they were Russotastic pretty much. In 2012 and 2013, TNA had more logical, and better overall product (most fans agree, myself included), but ratings went to shitter, especially when they moved in an earlier timeslot. You never know...

Ah, yea I gotcha. Spike TV generally gets bad ratings for their shows as it is so that might have something to do with it as well.
