So is Hermie Sadler going to be the World champion if they go to Velocity?

To modify a quote from a wise man, "if TNA dies, they die."
I just don't care anymore. I watch Impact, I get my few chuckles in, and I ignore the company until the next Impact. No, actually, that's not true. If this news is true, I'm pissed at TNA for f***ing it up for other wrestling companies by being such a bullshit promotion for so long that Spike wants nothing to do with wrestling anymore. Way to go, you goofs.
The only benefit TNA has to the business right now is that it's a place where washed up guys/WWE cast-offs can dick around and collect a paycheck. Let it go like it was in the movie Frozen.

All that's left is for TNA to put on their black track suits and Nike's, eat the pudding and catch a ride on the comet.

DirecTV has it. 281.
Wasn't this the network they did a pilot for a few years back?

I get Velocity on Charter so works for me. I see them maybe getting a .2 rating on there though since I didn't even know I had that channel until I just looked.

well if you believe wiki spike is in 98 million homes and velocity is only in 52 million. 1.1 will become .5 maybe less If I understand the rating system right, they could still get a 1.1 as that is the share of homes tuned into cable, you are available in that watched your show. Shit is crazy though so I could be off. There is also a chance that Velocity is too small for the ratings company to bother with.

I'm pretty sure Cablevision doesn't have it.
Oh well.

Yeah they don't. well if you believe wiki spike is in 98 million homes and velocity is only in 52 million. 1.1 will become .5 maybe less If I understand the rating system right, they could still get a 1.1 as that is the share of homes tuned into cable, you are available in that watched your show. Shit is crazy though so I could be off. There is also a chance that Velocity is too small for the ratings company to bother with. Used to be factored into the old ratings system. If you remember there used to be a ratings number and a share number. Forget what year but the national share number basically turned into the rating (which now is basically tvs tuned to a program/tvs in use *100) but there's more to it than that simple formula. The old rating number and how it was derived is basically gone and it's just the share is represented as a rating. Either way, yeah you are right. It doesn't factor in the fact that Velocity isn't in at least 1/2 the homes in the U.S. at all. To get that 1.0 rating they would still need that 1.25-1.4 million viewers per show. That isn't going to happen on a channel like that. Honestly if they take this deal you can remove anyone from that company that remotely makes any money whatsoever.

They'll hack into the feeds of other shows and broadcast Impact that way. Roode: I don't care about your stupid family honor, Lannisters! This is about this BUSINESS! This is about this COMPANY!

Spike isnt even a major network so whoever they have "lined up" must be like C-Span or VH1 Classic. If it's not the return of MXC, then it's just not worth our or anyone's time.

I find this saga of TNA just trying to stay in business a lot more entertaining than their product from the last couple years.

Never heard of this network and my provider doesn't carry it so if true, especially if the majority of their budget is vanishing, it feels like a huge leap towards oblivion. Clinging to survival is better than just rolling over and dying I suppose, but you have to wonder if they'll even be able to keep Crazzy Steve when his contract comes up.
