The thing about TNA is that, while it IS illogical and a clusterfuck, it sustains its ratings for the most part. Unless they're doing something stupid with their timeslot, like going against the pro wrestling juggernaut that is WWE, they sustain a 1.0+ rating and are usually in the top 50-100 programs every week.

Clearly, they're doing something right. If their ratings were plummeting (it's currently trending downward, but nothing too bad right now), yeah, they'd be in bad shape. But they do pretty consistent numbers.

I assume they want to expand, and realistically they haven't expanded since the jump to Spike, and that's really the only entirely wrong thing they're doing from a public numbers perspective. And I'm sure PPV is tanking, but I doubt that was never a strong point for them.

So really, no matter how much we dislike the product, somehow they're succeeding in a sense.
