TNA iMPACT! is moving to Monday nights on March 8th and will be going head-to-head with WWE RAW every week.
TNA President Dixie Carter tells the Hollywood Reporter that moving iMPACT! to Monday nights is a good move for her company and the industry as a whole. “We feel strongly that Monday nights is where the majority of wrestling viewers have been historically,” said TNA president Dixie Carter. “Having two Monday night wrestling shows with healthy competition between them can make for great TV. Our goal is not to beat ‘Raw’ immediately, but we feel confident this will accelerate our growth and make it fun for wrestling fans,” Carter said.
WWE spokesman Robert Zimmerman “It’s somewhat of a different audience. On Monday nights we’re one of the top cable shows. We’re focusing on our new show for Syfy, “NXT,” and ‘Wrestlemania XXIV.'”. He told Variety, “We’re not too concerned. We’re in good shape.”
