I lol'd @ great, but I guess these probably do qualify as 'great' for TNA.

Just saw that TNA had the best "social media score" for an Impact broadcast ever, and the ratings were good too.

So, TNA did something to please the IWC with this X-Division show. They got buzzing over Twitter and whatnot, which caused casuals and the "other part" of the smarks (ya know, all the mouthbreathers who crap on TNA at every opportunity even though they haven't watched the show in 3 years) to tune in. You can't tell us that we don't matter. Maybe not as much as building a show with a hot main event + giving it a PPV-quality feel going in, but you ddi that too. And also throw some praise at WWE for giving wrestling as a whole a ton of buzz via Daniel Bryan, that definitely had something to do with this.

Also Jeremy Borash = Ratings.

Taz not being there had to help out a lot,his commentary really makes TNA unbearable to listen to sometimes. Nevertheless it was a great show and it deserved good ratings.

So the average fuck head watching Impact doesn't give two squirts of shit about Aries/Roode.

I give up.

Good to hear that TNA's ratings are improving, due to the amount of talent that parted ways with them this recent week was shocking.
