Question About the TNA live show on the 4th

[krizwicky]

So i was looking at Tna.com and found this

“TNA iMPACT!” will resume its normal timeslot on Thursday, January 7th at 9:00 PM ET/PT with an encore viewing of the live “iMPACT!” special.

So tna is just going to re show the same show as on monday right so i can watch raw then watch tna on thursday.

Is it just me or is the thought of going head to head mean that you kind of want to make people chose your product over the over guys. SO what the point of having a live show the same night as raw if u give everyone the change to watch it on thurday?

[Jimmy]

It's more fun to watch it live.

[EJS]

They also give everyone the chance to watch it whenvever on spike.com.

There's no way to truly make it a "one or the other" head to head war nowadays. With dvr, legal online viewing of everything that isn't Raw, easy (less legal) access to everything on youtube, piracy...

Guessing what with the replay, TNA will get around an 0.5 on Monday then their usual rating on Thursday. A million different chances to see the show isn't great for ratings in itself, but when combined with the fact they're taking on Raw... Even without Bret hosting and the DX / Jericho & Show match I wouldn't have the highest hopes for Impact's success.

RAW is replayed 4 or 5 times during the week, just no one notices or watches.

Isn't it on like Universal HD or some channel like that? Not in my free hd tier.

And of course there's AM Raw, but that's a condensed version.

[Hanzo]

Don't forget about the Fiesta Bowl.

mun2 also replays Raw and ECW during the week.

[EJS]

mun2 is another channel I don't get here.

[Paco]

Wow, mun2 is part of my basic cable (Time Warner).
My cousin also has it as part of his (Verizon Fios).

With Universal HD, I think that's all the replays so, if you only have USA, watching Raw live on Mondays is the way to go.

Honestly that looks to be the best option not allowing you to watch it in full later with ease.

I mean TNA is gonna replay on Thursday.

Raw is gonna replay several times (I get the Universal HD channel).

Not much of a Latino population here in Western New York.

[El Hijo De Slapnuts]

what's mun2?
My DirectTV dosen't pick it up,I wish I had HDNet though

[Paco]

mun2 is kind of a Latino-American MTV.

They play mostly play music videos (Reggaeton and the like), with Spanish TV shows and replays of Raw & ECW (in English) added.

[El Hijo De Slapnuts]

Thanks,all I get is galavision(they have AAA lucha libre though!) and a couple others

[GaTechGrad]

It's pretty much "watch one or the other" on Monday for me, since I'll be watching the BCS National Championship on Thursday.

[The Goob, phd (is Jobbing)]

WWE aren't going head to head with TNA, though.


TNA should be doing all it can to make people watch their show.

[twiggy101]

I guess the difference between the live show and the replay is that the replay might not show nipple slips.

[egyptianblizzard]

Looks like I'm being screwed by my cable provider. I only get one replay of RAW and it is in spanish.
