It's Official Now: TNA Moving To Thurs Night

YES YES YES YES YES YES OH FUCK YES

Good for them. Hope they can keep their forward momentum.

Good stuff.

THey should do it after survivor

Yup, even though TNA has it's fair share of errors, I havent been this excited about wrestling since WCW died. Having WWE as the only mainstream primetime company sucked ass.

I hope TNA continues to improve, and hopefully by next year they'll get a second hour.

YES!!!

With TNA finally becoming competition, WWE will start to improve their programmes to make sure TNA don't catch up.

No matter what night from M-Thurs they put Impact on, there will always be the problem of other shows. Especially Tues and Wednesdays with American Idol. The people who watch TNA will watch TNA I guess.

Uh... this is not working... Thursdays at 9 is when I watch The OC.

It's when I watch My Name Is Earl.

Guess I'll start taping Earl.

lol what a fag who watches the OC besides zack morris

anyway, what's TNA?

Meh... OC should be done by April. So I can watch TNA

Just tape the OC that's what I'm gonna do.

Pretty hot here with TNA. Gonna be fun when CW starts up because SD is going back on Thursdays.

yeah I watch Earl and The Office then, looks like there is no TNA whatever it is for me

A lot of people watch the OC :foc:.

Just ask LL Cool G

The OC is great.
But I also tape The Office at 9:30
What to do...

FUCK! They should consider at 8. My name is Earl and The O.C are on at 9. Two shows that are VERY highly rated. I only have 2 VCR's. Now I have to tape two things and watch one? Those are like the only three shows I watch on TV.

But Survivor, which is on at eight, draws higher ratings than either of them.

OC should be done by April. So now you can worry about one less show.

Earl, Office and the OC will be over for the season a few weeks after Impact starts. They'll at least have time to build a fanbase over the summer.

Survivor is on @ 8e/7c
TNA will be on @ 9e/8c

Even though I don't watch TNA (mainly because of UK's poor coverage), I sincerely hope they do well.

IMO, the peak of wrestling was when WWE and WCW were competing at a high level, and hopefully TNA can get close.

Not only good news for TNA, good news for wrestling as a whole.

Hopefully WWE will realise that competition is coming and Vince will get the motivation to start improving his product.

OI OI OI

This is very good news for TNA. They don't need to go head-to-head with RAW or SmackDown just yet. Once the product improves to the level of WWE, put it on Monday Nights.....

It'll be interesting to see if/how WWE treats the whole situation. I'm sure more viewers will watch since it'll be on Thursdays and it'll mean competition in a primetime slot. I'm just wondering if it'll be an hour, hour and a half, or two hour show? Making Impact into a two-hour show would kick ass. Especially since they barely have time to promote alot of different angles with just an hour show.

A two-hour Impact would be a very good thing. The X Division workers would certainly benefit from longer-form matches, like the WCW cruisers.

Agreed. X-Division and tag division would both greatly benefit from a 2-hour show. That beats seeing X-Division guys having too many tag matches. That's one reason why Impact sucks. They don't get to showcase their X-Division properly. And the tag division would be better as well with more time allowed. They don't get to develop many new teams. A 2-hour Impact would definetely be a step in the right direction[along with getting the NWA belt off of Jarrett].

That's good to hear, now all we need is a 2 hour show, why are spike TV so reluctant to give TNA 2 hours?

TNA TNA TNA TNA

They need to change the name of the show. Impact! sounds so generic. I have seriously seen 1000 promotions call their TV shows "Impact". IWA-PR and TWA are 2 that shoot to my mind (however, how many people watched IWA-PR or TWA when they were on TV?). I just hate generics (except on my prescriptions *rimshot*)

The exact same thing as I first thought. If this doesn't put the willies up Vince's ass then I don't know what else would....













*waits for a Golddust joke from 450*

TNA Thursday Night Fuel?

Just because TNA has a primetime slot doesn't mean they're competition yet.

They could call it Thunder :shifty:

I watched IWA-PR. I lol'ed at their champion at the time....some jobber named Shane.:wtf:

No, but their steady progress in the last 18 months does make them potential competition. Anyone who has such a great marketshare in any industry is always aware of up-and-comers and no doubt Vince will be no different.

Now, I wonder if they will ever get rid of the six sided ring. I can only hope.

They're competition by default. You see, they're a wrestling program.

Now, they're not major competition and probably won't be for a while. But anyone who says they should go up against WWE right now is retarded, and too much a TNA fanboy to understand why this is bad business until they are a more potent threat.

Before TNA gets a head-to-head spot against WWE and another hour, they're going to need to move out of the Impact Zone and start doing live big arena shows. They also need to take the NWA Title off of Jeff fucking Jarrett.

I don't think they'll start bi-weekly touring for at least 2-3 years. My guess would be that the first TNA PPV outside of the Impact Zone will be in the latter part of this year, though.
