The first hour was just sad (which I believe had almost everything) while the second hour (which had the Full Metal Mayhem, Rockstar Spud-EC3 segment, and not much else) was great.
All I have to show is that tag match with Sanada & Storm vs. Low Ki & Tigre Uno, the crowd was so dead that it seeped into the wrestlers because I swear, it looked like Tigre Uno and Sanada might have given more of a crap when they were at King of Trios than they did here.

The move to Wednesdays made it impossible for me to watch most weeks. It's half price sandwich night at my family's favorite restaurant, and Mystery Science Impact 3000 is just a lower priority than that.

Sooner or later everyone taps. Yeah, not just on TNA for me but WWE as well. WWE is just the drizzling shits for three hours on a Monday night. TNA looks like it's in their death throws and personally I got school to worry about. I personally feel bad because the threads are awesome. I haven't watched either in weeks now but there's no sense in watching something that I don't enjoy.

Simple solution to low attendance figures. Buy a warehouse. Put the ring in the middle of the warehouse. Then put up four green screens to surround the ring and then use the green screens to put in a fake audience. Hell, they can be creative and pretend the ring is in different locations for matches like they can pretend to be wrestling in a different city each week. Or in a moving means of transportation like a flatbed truck, train or even a cropduster. The possibilites are limitless. Have you ever wanted to see wrestling inside a Cracker Barrel? TNA can make that happen. wrestling.... in.... spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace TNA would be saved immediately.

I usually watch other TV shows and MNF on Mondays and flip back to Raw at 10 when nothing else is on, or if it's a boring game. Raw just doesn't do much for me anymore.
Though I had a lot of fun at a WWE house show a couple of weeks ago. Seeing with a live crowd is a lot of fun.

I didn't have a problem with the show. It was nothing special but not bad.

Personally I've been enjoying the Impact taping over the few last weeks. The Wolves / Team 3D / Hardy Boyz stuff has been great. EC3 and Spud are fun as always. Low Ki, Joe and Homicide have been putting out great work as well.

This goes against the very principles we agreed to when we all first became wrestling fans.

It's looking so dark and claustrophobic now. The match quality can be good, but you can hear the sound bouncing off the walls at times.
Didn't one of the upcoming taped shows get something like 200-300 in attendance only? That's gonna be a scary show, we might need night-vision goggles to watch it.

Hearing the echo of well, everything off those walls is depressing. It was bad enough when it was just promos but last show you could hear every little sound bounce back. I cannot imagine being one of the wrestlers and begging for some reaction from the crowd to only get your pleas in return.

Believe me it's not 2001 WCW yet. When they get close to December and closing, now it's gonna be sad to watch.
But right now it's like they are blowing the biggest feuds they can, free World title matches after title matches like it's the end and they have little time left. I'll say this, they go out swinging. But it feels pathetic and a little like trying too hard.
But the stupidest thing in all of this is that they could have taken the opportunity to show TV networks what they can really do by having this Epic Bound for Glory, make it the best they ever could by having memorable storylines culminating at this big event and instead we have a thrown away show in Japan with guys most of America don't know.

Hearing the ref's hand slaps on the mat ECHO when he counts as there is so few people there....other than the highly blacked out areas of empty seats in the arena. Very sad.

The problem isn't because how bad the in ring product is. It's because TNA as a company it reputation is so far in the pits fans don't care anymore. Plus advertising in TNA is horrible. Most indies federations do a better job then they do. What is said that not even a 1,000 fans where in the arena as the talent nearly killed each other in full metal Mayhem.
