First off, I want to apologize for not having a report last week. The “ratings girl” that I get the numbers from took vacation and I was only getting a limited set of ratings. With that said, ol’ girl is back from vacation and I have a full set of numbers for a report this week, so here goes!
Starting with TNA’s Impact, they seem to be on pace on what they have been doing for the past couple of months. They’ve been hovering around 2.0. What stuck out to me was the final quarter hour being the lowest rated quarter hour. Fans tuned out during the Main Event Mafia’s angle with Christian Cage. Not good when fans tune out during the most heavily pushed storyline.
WWE Smackdown also stayed on par with what they have been drawing since the move to MyNetwork. SD started out slow but did some really good numbers in the 2nd hour and final quarter hour of 4.3 which was a full point over the final rating. Memphis fans still love “The Master of Pain” a.k.a. Undertaker and showed it in that final quarter hour.
Memphis Wrestling continues to draw embarrassing numbers. It’s sad to see this company fall so low.
WWE RAW actually had a decent week of numbers last Monday.
They had a few weeks of ratings around the 3.5 area but rebounded with a healthy 4.4 overall. This is good news for WWE going into Survivor Series this Sunday.
Note: The ratings for RAW is listed as 2 separate hours. I will round off, to the highest number, the averages of all 2 hours for the final rating.

Thanks and enjoy!!!
