The issue is they dropped to a lower rating then before he showed up. Yes it is a factor, thats clear. but it isn't solely responsible. Some of their orrigional 'die-hard' core audience was not there. Thats more of what I am interested in, where did they go?

That's what I LOVE about fellow "net" wrestling fans. They like to label people under categories without labeling themselves. Hypocrocy at its greatest
You: Everything but certian things in WWE (which all 'smarks' love) suck. Likes TNA a lot. Overall Con-WWE and rarely supports them.

Me: WWE fanboy for the pure fact that I can't be assed to stay up until 11 and pay attention to the TV, and the fact that I've watched it solidly for over 8 years. Overall Pro-WWE but will praise other promotions.

Except when you brought up the answer for the core base yourself.

PPV. Hmmm...

I guess you've got a point. The two factors together would make sense. Poor booking and violence attacking you from both sides would cause a drop. (Did I mention poor booking, man it's awful.)

KK: Likes TNA, and has hoped for a primetime slot ever since they got on TV. Willingness to accept that TNA isn't ready to go head to head with WWE is often mistaken for favoring the WWE, when it's simply a matter of common sense.

Likes some elements of WWE, but mostly is indifferernt, watching out of habit. Hasn't paid attention to a full Raw or Smackdown in years, and would like to see competition. Hopes TNA develops into it, but thinks it's smart to avoid direct compeition for the time being.

Thinks TNA makes mistakes, and can afford to do so less than WWE, because WWE is a dominant show due to its monopoly on the programming. Is harder on TNA for bullshit booking and big mistakes because it hurts them more.

Like was said before - the UFC PPV, heavily promoted by Spike and considered to be far and away the biggest UFC PPV of all time, is likely more responsible for the Saturday dip, and the boost in the Monday replay ratings likely means that the people who didn't see it Saturday caught up with it on Monday.

TNA doing a 60 minute show is very tough. So much gets crammed in that none of the angles have any impact, very few of the wrestlers have a chance of standing out...I understand they are trying to get more people on, but I'm not sure that that approach is going to work. 90 minutes would be far better than 60.

TNA's actually been very efficient with their time, IMO.
