In the interest of supporting wrestling as a whole, I'd like to know if Twitch keeps the episodes online to view at a later time?




Answer: Hell no, idiot

Cool if it's true. I don't even know if Pursuit aired Impact this week as it didn't record. AXS would be great for them.

I've been watching older TNA PPV's and I never realized how significant of a run Sting had in TNA. Like 2 1/2 to 3 years.

And good for them. I dont know how many homes the channel airs at but its more than 0 so it could be worse.

This is simultaneously sad and absolutely ridiculous to me. WCW was so much better even at it's lowest point. Makes me wonder if WCW would have actually died if Vince hadn't stepped in and bought it or if it would still be out there to this day otherwise.

I think even with the delayed New Japan tv airing it would still do better ratings than Impact.

Can't believe the cockroach found another home.

Feel like Impact has been way better than WWE for like the past year at least, from what I have seen

VoW has been somewhat hit-or-miss recently in terms of reliability but assuming its true, that's the best thing to happen to Impact since leaving Spike.

Not sure if AXS is in more homes than Destination America but they are a lot more committed to wrestling than Destination ever was.

Regarding the Impact to AXS story that Voices of Wrestling broke, neither side has commented on it. What we do know is that these talks have been going on for months and we don't know exactly where they stand past it doesn't appear a deal is final at this point. Those at Impact have talked about upgrading their television situation, which they have to do, at some point this year, but nothing was said past that.

VoW mentioned in their reported that there is a small chance the deal could fall apart due to some on-going issues that need to be resolved first.

Those issues already caused the original plan of Impact moving to a new network a few weeks after Slammiversary to get canned.
