Punk is hated by parts of the internet.

I think most people hate his marks, not the guy himself. Very few people see the vanilla midget for what he truly is like I do.

Honestly, if they goes on the way it is, they're gonna have to ditch the A+8s story. If not, at least tease a break up or have a falling out within the group. It's sad because I'm finally beginning to enjoy it as well. Hogan certainly isn't to blame for these numbers. Just listen to his damn reaction every week. The first thing I reckon TNA will look at, and rightly so, is their main angle - Aces and Eights.

Also, get Aries and Roode around the title scene again. The guys are absolutely awesome, and Roode's reign drew pretty good numbers did it not? Just have them higher up the card and on our screens more; They're TNA's hottest properties along with Bully atm.

Really sad to see, seemed like things were going up for TNA as well.

The truth is ratings are far from the end all be all of how successful a wrestling company is or will be. In the grand scheme of things they really don't mean all that much. Especially when we are discussing the difference between a .95 one week and a 1.01 the next. Really doesn't mean too much at the end of the day.

Roode was actually not that good in the ratings if I remember correctly.

True, but it wasn't his point, so anyway...

TNA must try to solve this issue real soon. I know Spike wants Hogan and Sting and Angle on their screens, but that's not the way to go. They're all fine in small doses in 2013, but wake up dude. Push Magnus and Morgan to the big picture already, Crimson and Gunner are dying to get on the main roster, Chris Sabin is as hungry as he ever was to step up..... And you can still have Awesome back up for them with AJ Styles, Bobby Roode, Austin Aries, Samoa Joe and Bad Influence + tons of other guys are just waiting to get some sort of opportunity like Jay Bradley, Rockstar Spud or Joey Ryan.

Just do something, mix it up, people are getting tired of seeing Hogan, Sting, Angle, Eddie Guerrero Tribute Band and An8s each and every week. New storys, new breed, new blood and more intriguing storys, and of course the storys for CASUALS (may God help us all lol).
