TNA Impact rating: The rating improves as the build to TNA Sacrifice continues

Thursday's TNA Impact drew a 1.145 rating, which is up from the 1.095 rating the show drew last week.

Powell's POV: The first hour drew a 1.06 rating, and hour two scored a 1.2 rating, so TNA officials can be happy with the growth. The company promoted next week's show well, so we'll see if that translates to an improved number next week. We'll have the quarter-hour breakdown shortly.
