Q5: 1.04 rating - Sting confronts Roode, Ray, and Aries, Jesse Sorensen video package, Zema Ion pre-tape
Q6: 0.99 rating - Announcers discuss Ion's promo, Ion vs. Shannon Moore, TNA fans video, Velvet Sky and Mickie James vs. Velvet Sky and Angelina Love
Q7: 0.93 rating - James Storm, Samoa Joe, and Magnus talk backstage, Tenay says Abyss is missing, Storm, Joe, and Magnus vs. Roode, Aries, and Ray
Q8: 0.90 rating - Storm, Joe, and Magnus vs. Roode, Aries, and Ray
Powell's POV: As if the first hour numbers weren't disappointing enough, the second hour was even worse with the number dropping consistently. The main event of the show drew the worst rating of the night. I like the heel trio and hope we see more from them as a unit, but teaming Joe and Magnus with babyface Storm felt abrupt, though they could click as babyfaces going forward.
