In an interview with Brian Fritz of SportingNews.com, TNA Wrestling President Dixie Carter talked about the debut of IMPACT Wrestling on Destination America and the move to the Friday night timeslot.
"I think I'll tell you in a few months if I like being on Friday nights. They presented us with a lot of research and felt very strongly about Friday nights being a potential for them.
+3's is how people look at ratings nowadays, it's not overnight ratings. With your +3 numbers, you have a much bigger chance for your +3 number over a weekend versus only, like if we were staying on Wednesday, that would be Thursday, Friday and you would have part of Saturday. It's just an overall strategy. They feel really strongly about it. Wrestling has been successful on Friday nights and is no longer there and so we'll see how we'll do."
