Seriously,
I know we say this time and time again because it's a wrestling program.
But isn't impacts lead-in a UFC show?
They have the chance to keep those UFC fans watching if they'd just start the show out with a 5 minute match.
It's called ratings retention. Working in the TV news biz just makes me mad everything I see the oppurtunities IMPACT is just shrugging off.
RANT OVER

Impact's lead in is like 18 straight episodes of 'Jail'.

cue the Raven "what a mark" gif.
People don't want wrestling on their wrestling shows.
TNA knows this.

This won't happen. Bischoff can't wrestle. He still has his martial arts skills to help him out. |

I'd rather him start iMPACT with another guitar performance. He's got some real talent. He's so good it makes you think that it wasn't even him at all playing and that it was someone else, but that would just be crazy.

This is pretty strange. Generally, Impact starts off with a promo, and generally, the ratings from Q1 to Q2 go down. But yeah, I don't know if Easy E is in any control of stuff like this, to be honest, I'm not sure very many people actually know. But yeah, won't happen. Might as well ask to have a bigger heel then Hogan. Or have Hogan be made to look bad like most regular authority figures look at some point.

Isn't the lead-in usually some show where they talk to former gang members? Any time I've tuned in in the last few months; it's usually been some blurry former Hell's Angel guy or something.
Besides, unless they're a fan of both ( like me), your typical UFC fan isn't gonna stick around just because there's a match.
