Day Dreamer Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 I mean it makes sense, but it doesn't at the same time. Like why didn't they just stay on Wednesday's in the first place? Why not Tuesday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yomomsizafreak Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Was Thursday not available? No seriously how is this supposed to help you if you are struggling in Friday odds are you are not going to do better during the middle of the week.

No seriously how is this supposed to help you if you are struggling in Friday odds are you are not going to do better during the middle of the week. Lots of people go out on Friday which would kill ratings other wise more people are in the house during the middle of the week. Honestly if they really wanted to get viewers they should have moved to Tuesday's. They could have grabbed the demo of Wwe fans who are looking for that wrestling fix after Monday night raw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people are not going to turn on Destination America on a Wednesday during prime time tv. Including there own Demo. Most networks put there biggest show's on Wednesday from about 8-11.

E#37 Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Dave Meltzer is saying that DA has an get-out clause regarding TNA, that would go in effect around September, so this seems like a last resort to impress the DA executives.

CarDaddyPlease Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Bye bye TNA. Considering they taped well into like January 2021 at this point, they need to try everything to stay alive I guess.

Paulie Walnuts Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Everytime TNA moves a night people say "byebye TNA". If moving to Monday nights didn't put them out of business, I don't know if moving to a Wednesday with one wrestling show you can only see on that companies pay to view Network, and another that is only shown on select cable providers, will do it.

Their move this early is obviously because something is wrong, otherwise there was 0 reason for them to move back and forth between several days. We'll see when that option comes up in September.

Paulie Walnuts Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Maybe they feel Wednesday would draw more viewers due to it being earlier in the week and not the beginning of the weekend when a lot of people are out having a good time, who knows really. But they've been doing pretty good on Destination America, as far ratings for that station goes, seeing as they're the highest rated show on the network, albeit it being a smaller network than Spike. How do you assume something is wrong just because they're moving to Wednesday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you assume something is wrong just because they're moving to Wednesday? Since they've been flopping days around for quite a while I believe, no? I feel like Impact has been on a different night every time I check back in lol Also, if they're switching nights clearly something was wrong with that night to make them switch. Good for them if they persevere, I don't want to see them close no matter how much I dislike certain programs they write in, but from the outside it just doesn't look good tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulie Walnuts Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Since they've been on Destination America they havent switched days at all. They debuted on a Friday and thats the day they've been airing ever since. This woule be the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear I watched the debut on a Wednesday and a few following days the same since I would get on skype with a few people after LU to watch? I'm about 90% certain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yomomsizafreak Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Sevenyearitch you're right. They started on Destination America on Wednesday January 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulie Walnuts Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 That was a one night thing for their debut on the station. They even advertised it as such, "debuts January 7th, Fridays at 9 beginning January 16th". They never moved slots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarDaddyPlease Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 I feel like you're taking this very personal that I made this statement lmao They debuted on Wednesday, did their thing on Friday, moving back to Wednesdays, all after being on Spike on different nights a few times. I don't see how I'm far off other than being wrong about their handful of months on Destination America lmao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nWo_Kevin Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Bye bye TNA. Considering they taped well into like January 2021 at this point, they need to try everything to stay alive I guess. LU and NXt are about to feast on em though Look, I enjoy Lucha Underground as much as the next guy but can we please stop with this? TNA does at least 5x better than LU in ratings. Hell TNA's reply show does 2-3x better than Lucha's show. TNA, as bad as it can be sometimes has nothing to worry about when it comes to Lucha Underground. Now if you want to talk about NXT, than ill have a discussion with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
