TNA Viewership Disappearing

[01010010 01101001 01100011]

TNA IMPACT AUDIENCE DOWN FOR FOURTH WEEK IN A ROW
by Mike Johnson @ 5:42 PM on 4/27/2015

The 4/24 edition of Impact did 381,000 viewers, down from last week’s 401,000 viewers. It was the fourth week in a row the viewership for the series has dropped.

The replay was also up a little, doing 188,000 viewers, up from last week’s 171,000.

3/20/2015 403,000 *Kurt Angle wins title*
3/27/2015 444,000
4/3/2015   443,000
4/10/2015 408,000
4/17/2015 401,000
4/24/2015 381,000

So is Kurt failing to draw or do we not understand the brilliant marketing that Destination America came up with?

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

Nice to see that others are tapping out on Total Nonstop Angle part 300.

[Seth Drakin of Monster Crap]

Kurt's failing here and TNA is also dying.........combination of the two.

But he won the Olympic gold medal in 1996!

[Can you afford to pay me, Gah]

Better get Jeff Hardy the belt quick......

[Welfare Willis]

This weeks Impact Thread did feel like it was missing some faces. Are we all 20,000 people or is it just me?

Might be time to sign Del Wilkes to build the company around.

God bless America!

[jimmyjames]

I like TNA, but Destination America deserves this since they're the main ones who pushed for 16x champ Kurt ANgle.

[Deleted]

I'm guilty of this. I haven't watched since Kurt won the title. Jeff's one of my all time favorites and I still won't watch...what does that tell you about this company? Haha

[Rave]

Haven't seriously watched since before Kurt won the title. I've popped in to kill time 'til the New Japan replay came on, that's about it. Never really saw anything worth sticking around for. That's actually pretty sad.

[lildude8218]

Acne remains, but...TNA viewership disappearing

[kidglov3s]

TNA is a depressing idea right now. I don't blame Kurt, it's bigger than Kurt.

Hulk Hogan is about due for a falling out with Vince. Mr. America may or may not be ready to do things in the Impact Zone!

[Emmet Russell]

I don't even blame Angle for this fully, but he's certainly part of the blame: he's stale and him being champion at this stage of his career does nothing for anyone and the ratings are showing it. He also doesn't have any viable or compelling challengers to go up against him other than the one guy who's currently campaigning for a title match but is stuck in a feud with dead-weight, Mr Anderson.

Kurt is a much better chaser of the title than he is champion.

Dixie-Bruce Jenner won Gold in 1976, and look how everyone is STILL talking about him. We have a good 20 years more out of Kurt

[Deleted]

TNA's biggest trope is that it relies on old, already established stars...seems accurate still today.

[Professor Chaos]

Lashley had a great title run. Angle has fallen flat. Destination America sucks if they're the only reason for this.

[Brood Lone Wolf Funker]

Bro bring me back



I got good ideas this time

I would pay to see Kurt Angle wrestling in a dress, it could take us to another boom period, bigger than the attitude era

Viewership is disappering so fast that DA has ordered that new episodes of A Haunting and Ghost Stalkers take place at the Impact Zone.
