Well it does help that unlike some of these other scrub wrestling shows. It's being shown on one of the top 3 baddest cable networks in USA.

That a little embarssing for the so called "Better" wrestling alternate. I mean I don't see networks lining up to run a show to find the next TNA star, then again I guess I'm just a WWE fanboy..

TNA on USA would pull a much bigger rating, it's the highest rated program on SPIKE weekly.

The Ultimate Fighter pulls 1.2million-1.6 million weekly with the biggest PPV draw in the modern era, Brock Lesnar on SPIKE TV.

TNA iMPACT pulls 1.5-2million viewers weekly on SpikeTV. Its the network, not the program, and thats a very fair analysis because of the Ultimate Fighter comparison.



On topic, I hate reality shows so I passed on watching Tough Enough, but with Stone Cold hosting I almost dvr'd it but my hatred of reality programs had me decide against it.

So your saying WWE' Tough Enough is almost 3x as popular as UFC' The Ultimate Fighter?


That'd be news to almost the entire world, its the network. Spike is much smaller than USA, USA is arguably the 3rd biggest network after Fox and CBS, and undoubtedly atleast the 5th biggest network after Fox, CBS, NBC, ABC.

Saw the last half of it for the first time ever last night. It was okay I guess. Had no idea that Trish Stratus was part of this show...

Ummm...You realise WWE was on Spike and they drew much better than a 1.5 weekly.

You realise that, right?

There is a reason stations like USA don't want TNA (and they could have had them before they brought back WWE btw, if they'd wanted) and it's because TNA, no matter what station you put them on, isn't going to draw any better than what they do.

It's pretty simple really. WWE Tough Enough, full of a bunch of people who won't even make it into the business, draw twice as much as a regular TNA show does full of a bunch of guys who are supposedly amazing and have a superior product.

You should just quit even trying kid because every time you do the TNA product continues to prove otherwise.

Tough Enough pulled a 1.7 rating this week, so it dropped what? 1/3 of its audience in a week. lol.

USA is a much bigger network, lets not debate TNA here and instead put the Ultimate Fighter on USA, do you think it still pulls 1.2 million viewers? The answer is no.

And yet still draws more than TNA's regular show.

And of course you don't want to debate TNA here, and you want to instead use TUF cause it's a better show. Yeah it would draw better on USA cause it's BETTER THAN TNA as well.

Again. Read this carefully now. I know you're slow and it's hard for you to get things.

WWE was ON SPIKE and they DREW BETTER THAN THE 1.2 and 1.5 ratings that TNA draws on a pretty much weekly basis. In fact the majority of the time they drew DOUBLE that.

So, again, it's not the station. It's the fact that TNA sucks. TNA could be on USA right now and they'd struggle to pull the same 1.2 and 1.5s they currently get.

The rise in popularity of DVR's makes the comparison not completely far, and I use TUF because iMPACT outdraws it WEEKLY even with Lesnar on TUF.
