Before we get started, FOX Sports Net (FSN) does their ratings by market and not nationally so it makes it a little harder than WWE ratings.
The Impact! shows on Friday afternoon’s have been averaging a 0.25 cable rating. That averages out to around 215,000 homes weekly.
The replay shows which take place Friday’s at 2AM and again Saturday at midnight have also been getting a 0.25 rating. Some individual markets have been coming in with a 1.0 cable TV rating, or around 860,000 homes.
This past Friday’s show was the most widely viewed episode of Impact yet.
Unless the exact same viewers are watching all three weekly airings of Impact, in theory, TNA could as much as triple their monthly pay-per-view buys from approximately 30,000 ($360,000 gross revenue to TNA) to approximately 90,000 buys ($1,080,000 gross revenue to TNA).
This should be considered great news for TNA and FSN is said to be very impressed thus far.
