Hardly killer but hands down better than than where they were around the end of the year. Hopefully they can take a jump forward from here.

Wonder if the publicity of Hogan tweeting the picture of Brooke's legs had any impact.

They seem to be getting there in 2013. They've re-increased their audience and managed to maintain it over the past month which is a great thing and I can see the shows over the next few weeks helping boost the rating, even if only slightly. I am usually extremely amped for Impact but these UK shows and then of course leading into the live Chicago show have me even more excited as usual. If they can capitalize on the progression they've been making and create somewhat of a wave, they could end up riding it all the way to the bank and to the big ratings.

Well...I guess the Hogans really do pull the numbers. Although I want to say it was to do with Bully Ray just so I can deny Hulk had anything to do with this rating.
