Is Foley still with TNA?

Has anyone heard Ross speak since his latest Palsy attack?

I say should TNA get another wrestling show have West and Ross announce that

thats cause don and mike have been together for years so they had time to click. as much as i love taz, i do miss don. he and homicide had a great relationship on camera.

He tweets and blogs. That's about it so far.

Well we knew Rob Van Dam was getting the best rated quarters . How did he fare having an entire show geared around him and his matches ?

The early report on last night's TNA Impact ratings is the show did a 1.00 overall rating and 1.3 million viewers.

Depending on how the numbers were rounded, the show would be the highest-rated episode since the official to move to Monday nights on March 8. The March 8 episode averaged a 0.99 rating, which is why rounding is a factor in the comparison.

The 1.00 rating is up 28.8 percent compared to last week's 0.78 rating. The 1.3 million viewers is up 18.3 percent compared to last week's 1.1 million viewers.

The key to the ratings increase was with the adults 18-49 and males 18-49. The demographic ratings were up to the early March levels after Impact scored weak numbers at the end of March and early April.

Rob Van Dam....baby. MR. MONDAY NIGHT.

From my end I'm hearing Bellator is courting him for third season commentary.

Actually I think it is his interactions with Taz that is making me care less for Tenay. I really do miss heel Don West at the booth. After years of being annoying, he finally gets himself a gimmick and voice that just works so well for him and that's when they go and change thing, ah well.

Don't forget to thank the volcano, and that the whole night was based around well WRESTLING. I would say the night was win for TNA as a whole, not RVD specifically. Hopefully for them Thursday ends up doing better then 1.0, and next week they don't drop back down to .7 or so. They blew a huge load on a night people may turn away from Raw, they now have to follow up on this and not go back to 2-5 minute matches the whole night.

Raw btw dropped down to a 3.05 their lowest since December 2008, they will blame this of course on the stars of Raw not being there, I blame it on the fact the first hour is nothing but two guys talking for 20 minutes with a whole 3 minute match tossed in for fun... oh wait that is a typical Raw, never mind, it must of been the lack of the Raw stars...

Well the Brand Draft is next week and starts at 8pm. Its a 3 hour show. TNA will basically do between a 0.6-.08 for that one. The last show where Shawn retired post Wrestlemania was hyped for that. Just like the Austin episode , this one will do a huge number based on weeks of hype.

The repeat for TNA will come in handy next week. It should be interesting to see what kinda number TNA does for the repeat . Will word of mouth spread for Rob Van Dam's title win ?

With Raw, to me, the WWE could have still put on a entertaining show despite the lack of stars. They have enough talent on Smackdown to do so. However Raw just half assed through the entire show. So no matter how many times some would whine about what went down on Impact last night atleast TNA didn't go through that show half assed like Raw did.
