----This week’s show did not do the same ratings as last week, but it was all good news. Overall posting a 4.6 rating [76, 572 viewers] making it #2 highest rated show overall in our ratings data span. The only show higher would be last week’s show and the 8.5.06 show trails with a 4.5.
----The show opened strong again this week with a 4.8 [80,567 viewers] with getting the highest rating quarter ending with after the Flash turn on Kastle. The second quarter scored 4.6 [76,405 viewers] starting with the DK interview, DK vs Tatt2 and just as Grady Watson walked out before the Nate angle with card. That segment lost 4162 viewers. The third quarter jumped up 1,331 viewers to 4.7 = [77,736 viewers]. That quarter started with the Nate angle then the 6 man tag with the hanging angle. The 4th quarter dropped 4660 viewers with a 4.4 [73,076 viewers] rating. That last quarter featured the “Opening the Vault” segment and the tag team title match.
----If I were Maclin and company, I would like this week’s rating better than last week. I know it was a bit larger audience in spots, but this was a very consistent. They lost 7491 viewers from start to finish, but largest dip was 4162. Last week we had an over 20,000 viewer dip. When this time change was announced, I thought they would suffer in the ratings. If you average the last two week’s of ratings, the new night time spot as an average is doing 3.9 [64,919 viewers]. The 16 week span before the change was averaging 3.7 [61,590 viewers], so the show is doing better.
