The only way I'd support them moving to Monday permanently is if its with a second show. I really don't want to lose wrestling on Thursday nights just so I have to switch between shows every Monday.. Someone needs to put a show on Wednesday.

That's truly remarkable when you think about it. For their show I mean. And I think moving it to Mondays on a permanent is a mistake. I mean, they could move it, but it should be from 8-10, not 9-11. That's just suicide. No,this is Suicide

Wow, looking at the ratings breakdown from PW Torch, there were an incredible number of swinging viewers:

Even if there are some issues with the show, the rating is very good. Not sky-high instant war fandamntabulous or anything but very good, and Hogan in particular can get the credit for his whole segment.
It's what they can retain that'll be the important thing, and what they can do to boost the PPV sales. It's the coming months that'll really be interesting.

I hate the phrase ''Re-train the Audience''

To be fair to the Knockouts, they did a pretty decent number. 1.3 before this was the highest TNA has ever done, plus people were catching the end of the Hart/HBK deal, and going up against Raw. So, the Knockouts didn't do THAT bad.
The people who really did bad were the Pope, Desmond Wolfe and Daniels. Now, keep in mind, the match between Pope and Wolfe had no back story to it. We could talk about how they're ratings poison, but I think the fact there was no proper angle going into this didn't help things. Same with Morgan and Hernandez vs Stevie and Raven. I bitch about the Nasty Boys deal, but if that stuff was taken out, maybe they could have kept some viewers.
What it shows a bit seems to be that, filler matches are a bad idea in some cases. Joe vs Abyss didn't do too badly, but filler matches with nothing really going into them seems to be a major problem. It seems what they were trying to do was start from scratch with matches, instead of going with matches that could be built off of the last pay per view, Impact, or something like that. Anyway, the breakdown is interesting.

Oh the difference a few weeks make. The filler matches, the ones that, seemingly, had little thought put into them other than, "um, you and you, go do stuff, we've got two minutes to kill" were comprised of Daniels (fomer X diision champ, just ME a PPV), Wolfe (hottest thing going recently, fantastic feud with Angle, young and over), Joe (THE hottest act for some time, misbooked to hell and back), Abyss (bump machine extraordinaire), and Burke (young, incredibly talented, and over).
It's just one show, but the fact that thse are the guys you pick to "kill time" is scary.

And if 1.5 is around 2.2 million, a 1.3 probably around 1.9 million. Problem with choosing Jan 4 was that the ppv was over 2 weeks ago, there was no fallout from Final Resolution that Thursday because of the Star Wars marathon and then the following was the New Years Knockout Eve special.
