She's clearly saying they're disappointed in the rating.

Except they'll always be doing that.

What's interesting here is 5.6 million fans is about what they normally get on a 3.2 rating or so.

That's part of why ratings do matter. TNA has to make itself worth its time when they could be putting other programming in prime time. Their primary competition isn't even WWE right now, it's whatever they'd put in that slot.

TNA hasn't even entered into the ratings wars, really. TNA needs to establish that they will be worth keeping on Mondays. Spike May be fine with them not starting out well, but the question is how long they'll go with wrestling on Monday Night when the ratings aren't really better than the ones they got on Thursday.

Fans jumped the gun on the Monday Night Wars. That's why we have not only these comparison threads, but also the apologetics going on here. Though I'm sure some people would apologise for TNA period.

I'd be surprised if Spike was out and out disappointed with the ratings, but I'm sure they're paying attention. Probably moreso than USA, WWE, and so on.

Case in point: While it's on USA, last week reruns of NCIS had four of the top ten slots in the Cable rankings. They were all near the bottom, but they were pulling in 2.7 ratings plus. They also pulled nearly four times the ratings TNA did.

If the dirt sheets are right and the Impact! replay got the same rankings as the live show, there's little point, especially when they could slap something else in there. Maybe not NCIS (Especially since it's already on USA), but if other syndicated shows would do better, it's less of a gamble for more reward.

Admittedly, this is playing a little fast and loose for simplicity's sake.
