Breaking Update: TNA IMPACT! Leaving Monday Nights
As noted earlier, tonight's big announcement on TNA is that the company will be moving iMPACT! back to Thursday nights.
Spike TV will be airing TNA Reaction as the lead-in for iMPACT! every Thursday night. Reaction will air at 8PM EST each week while iMPACT! will return to it's 9PM EST time slot. The pilot for Reaction aired a few weeks ago on a Monday night before iMPACT! and featured a "backstage look" at TNA.
TNA iMPACT! will still be taped on Monday and Tuesdays in Orlando, FL.
As noted earlier, TNA will be making a major announcement tonight but it's unknown if the TNA Reaction news is a part of that announcement.
As noted earlier, this is obviously a smart move for TNA for the long-term future of the company. The plan is to continue to build up the Thursday show and then re-evaluate things at a later date. If/when ratings increase on Thursday, they could always move back to Monday but it won't be anytime soon.
