Overrun: (No rating listed) - Main event continuation.

Powell's POV: The first hour of the show scored a 1.26 rating, and hour two drew a 1.24 rating. The show peaked with the first quarter-hour and then dropped consistently throughout the first hour, yet bounced back and remained fairly consistent in hour two. TNA may have sold some pay-per-views had they bothered to hype Sunday's Victory Road show in the first quarter-hour when they had their highest rating.
