This sounds like a mini-Sportscenter for MMA fans. I love the idea, but I'd like to see a little better timeslot. They could work on that in the future though if the show is successful.
Thanks for posting, I'm looking forward to the debut.

I can see why it's not in prime time. It's for UFC fans, not just general entertainment.

Me likes! Maybe Spike could bump the TNA time slot back for more important programming.

I'll watch it Live because it will come on at 11pm here in Oklahoma. That's not too bad at all, but I'm sure a lot of East Coast people will miss out on it if they don't have TiVo or the like.

Amen, I hope someday the UFC is the cause for the death of "Pro Wrestling" all the TNA garbage and silliness that goes on.
Wrestling should go back to where it was origninally. Saturday Mornings afte cartoons.
IT'd fit perfectly right back in that slot IMO!

Can you not post stuff like that. If your vocabulary is that limited just let the filter do it's thing we get the idea.

TNA brings in a lot of viewers. I said a while back that UFC Unleashed would get beat out of the timeslot that they had, and that TUF will likely be moved as well, to make room for the new two-hour TNA weekly program that starts on November 16th. The ratings for TNA in the last few months have sky-rocketed. Also, TNA has larger financial backing to pay Spike TV for the primetime slot. The UFC UFN shows will be shown on Tuesdays rather than on Thursdays. I like this new UFC show, but without live, fresh matches the audience will just not be as big.

Actually, TNA's weekly show will only be two hours on November 16th. It will be back to one hour after that, with occasional two-hour shows here and there.
As for the ratings, they were up in the 1.1 and 1.2 area a few months back, but over the past two months, they have been hovering in the .7, .8, and .9 range (.8 this past week). Still, the move to primetime will do them wonders.
I'm a pro wrestling fan, always have been and always will be. It's not difficult at all to watch MMA and wrestling either. I love both for different reasons, and it wouldn't bother me if we got an entire Thursday night of TNA and UFC......or any night for that matter.

Just thought that this deserved a bump since the premiere episode is this week. Also, there are three UFC Unleashed episodes scheduled this week. One on Monday and two on Thursday.
