TNA Impact on Wednesday, October 1 scored a 0.88 rating, up from a 0.81 rating last week and even with a 0.88 rating two weeks ago.
Impact has topped out at 0.88 rating on Wednesday nights, scoring a 0.88 rating three times since moving nights.
Impact drew 1.1 million viewers, returning to the same audience level as two weeks ago when the show also drew 1.1 million viewers.
- The concern is the quarter-hour ratings trend. Impact opened with a show-high 1.03 rating in Q1 following the "Cops" lead-in on Spike TV and the show gradually declined until bottoming out with a 0.75 rating in Q8.
