TNA Beat WWE In International Ratings

Despite being miles behind on domestic soil, TNA are actually beating WWE in Australia in ratings with Impact getting 43,000 viewers and Raw only getting 36,000. In fact Smackdown beat Raw with 38,000.

In the UK ratings are also a lot closer, although WWE are still ahead.



Maybe Kurt wasn't blowing his trumpet in recent interviews.

That was only for one week though. The next week things were back to normal and WWE had a considerable advantage over TNA. Btw, interesting fact: WWE & TNA are shown on the same channel over in Australia.

As far as TNA beating WWE in the ratings, I do know for a fact that Xplosion was kicking Raw & SD's collective asses a while ago in India and probably parts of the Middle East. I also do remember at one time TNA doing better in Germany because of Eurosport having more viewers than whatever channel WWE's on but now I don't know how things stand seen as how TNA's got a deal with the Premiere channel. In the UK the difference between WWE & TNA's ratings isn't always all that big too for that matter. So basically yeah, TNA's been growing. iMPACT's ratings in the USA might not show it but TNA is definately growing.

I couldn't find the info earlier but here it is now:

im in australia and i think why TNA won the ratings is because it was the first time it was shown 3 weeks ago, and i was really excited to watch it so i stayed up until 2 to watch it because i was interested to see what they had, i think well see the ratings drop as for me it wasn't as good as i thoght and i also dont see it keeping up because of the time slot, not many peaople will stay up till 2 to wacth the whole show.

Wow I'm lucky if I stay up till 1am to watch a PPV. I remember when I was young and used to tape Heat because it was on channel 4 at like 3am lol.

^ lol even sadder than that was when it was the hols i used to stay up n watch heat! lol..... but back then Trips occasioannly main evented heat lol so it was half decent in the c4 days lol

but as for TNA doing better in the International Ratings is because like many say its fresh and new in international territory, its a fresh product, unheard of and unseen to many people in these countries, but with TNA's innovative (At times) product they may keep this up, we'll jus hav to wait and see!

lol well lets just say lucky its on saturday nights, but i dont think i will be staying up to watch as it getson, definetley this week cant wait for the TNA world title, i havnt seen angle compete since his wwe days.... sad i know.
it would actualy be interesting to se how it would rate if it were on during a better time slot.

ive only seen tna lockdomn never really took any interest in it but,, i was pleasently surprised it had an aray of old wrestlers from back in the day,, and kong is 1 scary ass women,, but i still think that wwe has the edge over the both brands but ill almost defo watch tna again!!
