To little surprise, this week’s episode of iMPACT! Wrestling was down a hefty amount in viewers and ratings. Last night’s episode, which suffered from technical difficulties and didn’t begin airing until 10:50 PM ET, brought in 210,000 viewers and a 0.06 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic. That’s down 36% and a third from last week’s 326,000 viewer and a 0.09 demo rating.
Obviously, these numbers should be viewed as an irregularity. During the vast majority of iMPACT’s usual timeslot, weather conditions in Georgia caused issues in POP TV’s master control and repeated commercials aired instead. A re-airing of iMPACT! in full aired earlier tonight from 9PM -11PM EST.
iMPACT!’s 10:50 PM airing ranked #144 among cable originals for the night.
