Q8: 1.12 rating - A.J. Styles and Douglas Williams vs. Rob Van Dam and Raven
Overrun: ?? - Family Feud hype, Jeff Jarrett entrance and Matt Morgan out for the main event
Powell's POV: The main event match took place during TNA Reaction, so it doesn't show up in the ratings, nor were we given a rating for the brief overrun. It's discouraging to see TNA lose so many viewers following the Knockouts match in the fifth quarter, but at least the trend of dropping consistently throughout the final hour didn't continue, as the final quarter increased, although not to the extent that one would think a final segment would.
I understand the idea of having the main event run into Reaction, but I think the key is to have the match starting or at least the ring entrances taking place at the top of the hour when viewers are more likely to be channel surfing.
