Actually, MNTV has more markets than CW. Nobody's watching MNTV, which will probably hurt WWE in the move. I think their highest rated show in the history of the network jobs to TNA.
And also, MNTV has more than just the leftovers from the UPN/WB merger. They existed before that, and had been buying up local stations. They've got something like 90% market saturation. They just don't have any programming worth a fuck, and nobody watches them. And neither of those will change.
Seriously, MNTV will probably benefit from the Smackdown acquisition, because they have little going for them except a parent company with deep pockets. Will Smackdown benefit? It's probably going to take a hit. Moving a show to another network tends to hurt, even if everyone has the same channels. By exension, the low ratings and viewership of MNTV will likely not mean any additional fans for the show, so at least short term, a hit is most likely. But it's not because of the size of the network. Just the fact that reruns of my sex tape infomercial outdraw their programming.
And since I don't have a Hardy joke to go out on, I'll just point out that Darth Tedious is turned on by really scary things, and no race wants to claim Lita.
