Re: Knockouts Still TNA'S Top Draw

Topless, Title on a Stripper Pole Match....

There's your Knockout PPV Main Event match, right there!

But, I like television ratings say a lot.

The Knockouts get a higher rating then the Mafia/TNA spots, I'd say because it's just a bunch of former WWE people doing the same things over and over again. That's not a "bad" thing, it just means people are tired of it. Whereas, the Knockouts -not only very attractive - have interesting/somewhat comical stories/segments that are new and draw people in.

Lets have them main event a PPV with the knockouts and see how much it draws.

Like DX Said Ratings don't Lie. Knockouts has always been a ratings Hit for IMPACT!

Re: Knockouts Still TNA'S Top Draw

That doesn't mean they are the companies biggest draw though. You take away guys like Angle, Foley, maybe Sting, etc and the ratings would plummet.

Knockouts dont sell PPVs.

Re: Knockouts Still TNA'S Top Draw

Yeah Steve is right but I didn't think anybody was claiming they were literally the company's biggest draw. They just get the highest rated segments of IMPACT. They may not be the company's biggest draws in terms of selling PPVs and such, but it certainly says something. They are definitely popular and TNA should build on this.





"A few weeks prior to signing with WCW, I witnessed Hogan wrestle Flair on Nitro. Now strictly from a fan perspective, it was very hard to watch. What I witnessed that night was two legends that were shells of their former selves still trying to do it. Watching Hogan & Flair that night just wasn't right. In my opinion the bookers were just exploiting them to try to pop a number. It was a desperate situation and that's exactly the way it came across on TV."

Yeah but what does that have to do with anything?

As much as the Knockouts do draw good TV ratings, it is pretty obvious that people buy PPVs for the top guys.

Re: Knockouts Still TNA'S Top Draw

No one buys them anyway, look at Slammiversary.

As for them being the "top draw", they had the highest rated segment, and that's not particularly good, but we shall see what TNA does in response. I for one, do enjoy the Knockout matches, they're better than WWE's. But that said, I watch TNA because my 3rd favorite wrestler wrestles there, AJ Styles.

Re: Knockouts Still TNA'S Top Draw

I think they buy the PPVs for the "story"... it just helps that it's not the same two guys headlining a PPV month after month for years on end. That's not to say that they don't have repeating main events... but the story is there to make it interesting each time. WWE... they don't have that. And, as of late, it seems like they're incapible of ever doing that.
