Where did you hear that? Physical examination? Like a drug test? I think that is total NEWZ. I heard he verbally agree to be in WWE but they took way to long to sign him so he chose TNA instead. It wasn't a drug test, but the pre-screening physical, it was because of his previous injuries. Here's the report from the Torch pwtorch.com/artman2/publish/WWE_News_3/article_36193.shtml |

What really interests me is the rating for the first Impact of May. A long way's off, but between this next week being the last Raw before WrestleMania, the following being the night after, the tendency to have big shows through April, and then the draft the night after Extreme Rules, I think that'll be the first time TNA can hope to properly crack 1.0 on Mondays.
Not that I much like their chances of doing it, but that is the week they need to be building for.

I don't get it. At all. It's kind of a small horse, I mean what am I missing? Am I crazy?

perhaps TNA should stop worrying about a “MONDAY NIGHT WAR” and “RATINGS" until they can put out a consistently good wrestling show. I mean, realistically, even if given time, they're not going to pull WWE level ratings for the forseeable future. forget bringing in Val Venis and Brian Knobbs, etc., and just put something out there thats fun to watch and coherent. If it catches on and grows, awesome. If not, at least they tried. This. They *can* realistically make a serious run at being competition, but just not the way they're doing business now. |

I don't know why everyone is lumping Nash in with Hogan and the Nastys.
He's been in TNA for YEARS, I have no problem with them giving him some TV time, like it or not, he's earned his spot there.
But, yes, TNA needs to go back to thursdays so we can end this blood feud that has started on the forum.

There's been more clickthroughs in the past 3 weeks than there have been in a while. |

Not a good rating, if next week bounces back this could be a blip. I'm guessing spike are going to give them a while to see what happens.

Here's what worries me about it. Unopposed hour or not, they drew a 1.5 rating on January 4. They managed to entice that many people to watch their product, and that's a good thing. However, they've now got a 0.8, with ratings decreasing steadily from 1/4 to now. Yes it's Wrestlemania build-up time, yes, the NCAA tournament was getting ready to start and conference tourneys were wrapping up, but a steady decline in the past two months is what sticks to me. Each week, fewer people have tuned in to see the show, be it on Thursday or Monday, and that trend has got to stop. If this is the low point and they can rebound back to their normal range, then the drop was momentary, but at some point within the next few months, they have got to get back to their high point. If they don't, the 1.5 becomes the fluke rating.
