TNA Impact rating remains flat, final segment bombs

TNA Impact drew a 1.0 rating on Thursday, which is the same mark the show reached last week. The highest rated segment of the show drew a 1.14 rating for the fifth quarter-hour, which featured the conclusion of the ODB and Gail Kim vs. Velvet Sky and Angelina Love match, and the beginning of the A.J. Styles and Super Eric vs. Rock-n-Rave Infection. The rating decreased in every quarter-hour for the remainder of the show.

Powell's POV: The Samoa Joe and Kurt Angle vs. Scott Steiner and Petey Williams match started in the seventh-quarter hour, which drew a 0.99 rating. Meanwhile, the final quarter-hour, which featured the conclusion of the main event match and Jim Cornette's announcement regarding the tag team tournament drew a 0.94. That tied for the lowest rated segment of the broadcast. Ouch.
