Bryan Alvarez said that this show would be beaten by last week's Knockouts special. He was wrong by some distance.

Obviously the biggest dip in the quarterlies happened once Hogan's segment ended, but what happened during the time that lead to a drop from a 1.42 to a 1.16 quarter? Something stupid on TNA's part, or something good on Raw?

So, I guess they didn't count that little overrun?

Gee this rating really make me wonder if Bret hadn't been on RAW what they would have scored.

If we only count the usual 9-11 slot, then Impact did a 1.33 against RAW.

Wow, I thought they would be lucky to even get a 1.0-1.1, and that was before Bret Hart was announced. Glad to be wrong though...

and Hogan said they'd get a 3.0, so should he eat his words also? Yeah, but we already know he's demented. The way TNA fans treat Lance Storm, you'd think he was too.

They got half of what Hogan predicted. All jokes aside, pretty decent number.

Great news. So what TNA does for an encore? What would happen if TNA spend as much they did to hype Hogan's arrival to sell their ppvs and merchandise? Big ratings are great but to truly get WWE attention, their business numbers are going have to increase. And if they do get a periodic slot for Mondays, it need to be only for 2 hours. 3 hours is too much to book every week . Next week's Impact is the true measure if it was a success or not. How many people return back is the key.

Raw got 5.6 million viewers, which is their highest since August.
Obviously a lot of people who don't regularly watch tuned in to both shows.

Look, Hogan is a tool, we all know this. No one seriously thought they would get a 3.0.
I argued that if they got a 1.5 or something near a 2.0 it would be a huge, huge success for the company and probably put a lot of momentum behind the idea that they ought to be on Monday Nights. It seems this is exactly what's taken place. An overall 1.5 rating, with a high of 1.88 in the quarter hours. And you have to believe both Spike and TNA are going to be thinking that they can seriously compete with Raw.
Before anyone gets their panties in a knot--I didn't say "beat" Raw, but compete. If TNA can provide a genuine alternative on Mondays, draw ratings that are consistently in the 2.0 are if not higher, that would be a huge milestone for this company.
Exciting times ahead it seems.

And let's not forget to take into account the fact that TNA has the replay on Thursday night. It will be interesting to see what they score for that broadcast. Will they get their usual 1.0? Will it drop to a 0.5-0.6 because most of the audience has already seen it? Or will there be up-and-down quarters with a decent rating based on WWE fans wanting to check out what the buzz is all about? How many people will simply watch it twice like a PPV replay? That in and of itself will be of interest to me.

Just imagine the freakin Rating when WWE did not have Bret Hart and had Al Sharpton or someone like that! I think it would have been a 2.0
