----This was almost the identical ratings as last week with as the show this past Saturday scored a 3.2 [54,061 viewers] overall. The good part this week is that they did not have a huge drop. Even though they did lose some viewers in the 3rd quarter [and you NEVER want to lose viewers], they finished off with close to 700 viewers gained. This is not a “perfect” rating, but if I was doing TV I would be proud of it. In a perfect rating you would have the show climb after every quarter, as we have seen that does not happen for Memphis Wrestling.
----The bad news is that Memphis Wrestling reruns look like they might settle in to doing the same ratings as the first run shows. This is not good for the local guys that go there every week to do the tapings. Why would Corey Maclin spend money on doing tapings when he can just air shows he already has in the can and make the same amount of money??
----The “What Was Memphis Watching” number [highest rated program in the wrestling time slot] dropped 21% from last weekend, but the wrestling rating only dropped by 8%.
