I think it is fair to classify the Monday night move was a failure and try and move on. Although, to be fair, I would have given TNA another month or two at the 8:00 PM Eastern time slot, but considering this is the wrestling business, where snap decisions are made all of the time based off of one week of bad ratings. Given the fact that I normally did not really get around to watching TNA until the weekend to begin with, this really means nothing for me. I remember thinking that TNA would be back on Thursdays by this summer and it appears that I was right on this one. The fact that so many good talent is on that roster, makes me wish that TNA would succeed but there are just some glaring problems regarding management, especially considering most of them act like they have been put in a coma in about 1999 and then woke up in 2010 to write wrestling. I do wonder if we're going to ever get a situation like WCW versus WWF in the mid 1990s. I doubt it but it would be nice and create some excitement for us fans. So what are your thoughts on TNA returning to Thursdays? Looking forward to reading your responses.

Personally, I am very happy that TNA decided to move back to Thursday. It just did not feel right watching it on Mondays. Thursday is TNA day to me...

Yes, plus I never got to watch it live on Monday when it aired. At the earliest, I got to it on Thursday anyway. So it really does not matter. That would be just like if they moved RAW to a Wednesday or something. Recreating the Monday night wars was an interesting idea but not one that got off the ground. Thank you for your response, it is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

Yes, starting on May 13th. They said it was due to "overwhelming fan support" which I guess is true in a round about way. Given the fact that last week's replay that aired on Thursday. beat the first run show in the ratings. This is what caused Spike TV to hit the panic button and move TNA. Thank you for your response, it is much appreciated. Have a nice day and thanks.
