Q1: Impact opened with a 0.87 rating for the immediate fall-out from Lockdown with Bobby Roode's promo and subsequent interruptions by Mr. Anderson, Jeff Hardy, and Hulk Hogan. There was also one commercial. (down 26.1% vs. 2011-Q1 average)

Q2: Impact increased to a 0.91 rating for Matt Morgan & Austin Aries vs. Bully Ray & Crimson in the opening match, plus one commercial. (down 21.3% vs. 2011-Q2 average)

Q3: Impact reached its first hour peak with a 0.96 rating for Garett Bischoff & babyfaces in the ring confronted by Ric Flair, one commercial, and the first-half of A.J. Styles vs. Kurt Angle. (down 17.7% vs. 2011-Q3 average)

Q4: Impact dipped back down to a 0.90 rating for the end of Styles-Angle, champions making their way to the ring, two full commercial breaks (which affected the rating), and Hogan talking to RVD backstage leading to the top of the second hour. (down 20.0% vs. 2011-Q4 average)

Q5: Typical for Impact, the show scored its peak rating in Q5 with a 1.14 rating for Hogan's "big announcement" with the champions in the ring, plus one commercial break. This was the only quarter-hour of the show that was not double-digit percentage below the corresponding 2011 quarter-hour average. (down 7.4% vs. 2011-Q5 average)

Q6: Impact dipped back down to a 0.98 rating for the eight-Knockouts tag match, one commercial, and ODB & EY on their "honeymoon." (down 15.5% vs. 2011-Q6 average)

Q7: Impact dipped to a second-hour-low 0.94 rating for Devon vs. Gunner, one commercial break, and James Storm's farewell-for-now speech leading to the main event.

Q8: Impact increased slightly to a 0.96 rating - below the KO quarter-hour - for the main event of Jeff Hardy vs. Mr. Anderson vs. RVD that the audience did not have time to anticipate. There was also one commercial. This was the lowest Q8 rating since early March. (down 18.5% vs. 2011-Q8 average)

It seems that the segments we on this site liked best were the lowest rated. TNA just has to keep plugging away with Roode and Storm.

Totally agree with this. I'm starting to think Bruce Prichard was sent by Vince McMahon/WWE to destroy TNA.

I enjoy what i enjoy and i take wrestling at face value as just another form of entertainment. I don't bother over analyzing bullshit like the IWC guys do with work rate and shit like that. I watch wrestling mostly for the promos and to see how the stories evolve, not for the wrestling.

Just so happens everything i enjoyed in tna is now being focused on less and i enjoy the product less. By the looks of the ratings, a few hundred thousand people agree with me.

You mean smarks. Smarks are the one's who over-analyze everything. IWC guys, like you and I, just like to read news and discuss our favorite hobby(in this case being wrestling).

Smark = smart mark = everyone on this website as well. Smark, IWC, whatever, we all have the same stereotype.

I think you probably want to give some soap operas a try. Wrestling is and should always be (imo) about the wrestling. As far as Im concerned the stories are just a frame for the matches.

It's not your place or mine to dictate what happens in pro wrestling. If i want to watch pure wrestling, I'll watch the UFC. Besides, TNA needs all the viewers they can get right now.

Has nothing to do with this. There are lots of fair weather fans that would attend events and if you really want to go that route, we can analyze the tna lockdown ppv attendance numbers from just a few weeks ago and see how the numbers stack up to to some of the past ppv events from last year that were filmed out of the impact zone.

it was Hogan's announcement that saved the show from even a more terrible rating.
I don't see the ratings getting any better for the near future.

Im not dictating anything, Im stating an opinion. I still watched TNA throughout 2010 and 2011 despite me thinking that much of it was below average..... or even utter shite in some cases so I could hardly be considered a prima donna that demands his own way. I cannot identify with the idea of watching pro-wrestling without being interested in wrestling. The comparisons to UFC dont make sense to me either as the two concepts are very VERY different.

Cant believe that the first segment after a big PPV like Lockdown cant even get a 0.9.

Didnt the first segment after BFG get a 1.6 or something? What has happened?
