Impact Moving?
From PWInsider:

SpikeTV's website for 4/5 is currently listing TNA Impact as airing 8-10 PM Eastern. No word on whether this is a one week deal or a permanent move, but if it's a permanent move, it can only help with the overall rating for the show. Stay tuned.

I actually like this. I'd rather TNA have the lead-in hour. Better to try to reel people in early and keep them around than try to grab them directly from the established slot.

Agreed. Going directly head-to-head was a bad idea, this gives them a chance, at the very least, to be viewable by more fans for at least an hour. Even if they don't draw them away from RAW one week, if that fan continues to watch they may switch over every so often and watch instead of RAW.

Just wondering how they're going to work this "Kayfabe", because they made such a huge deal about the move in the first place. They're going to look weak because of their original stupid move.

Hogan creates a time machine and makes 8PM the new 9PM.

Well a big factor is whether this specific Impact is taped or live. If it's the former than they might not get as many viewers due to spoilers.

They should air a replay at midnight or something. Impact would have to get better ratings than "Manswers" or whatever the hell they run at that time.

I think they should go from 8-11, do pyro at the top of every hour (sometimes during matches), and dedicate the entire first hour to the X-division. Then Hogan and Bischoff can come out and talk about Flair promptly at 9
Also, Sting and Jeff Jarret can draw at the 10 o'clock spot.

None of this has ever been done, so it will be really exciting...

Great move by TNA. Gives them the 1st hour as a head start against RAW and then hopefully their 2nd hour being much stronger than the typical weaker/slower 1st RAW hour.

Also gives TNA a better chance at building their Monday night fan base without having to worry about being in direct competition with WWE/RAW for the 2 hours. WCW did this before as a way to boost their ratings for the 2nd hour but sort of "wasted" it later on with the 3 hour show.
