This week’s Impact drew just 997,000 viewers, down 18 percent from last week, and down more than 40 percent from the 2014 high of 1.393 million viewers for the Jan. 9 episode.
The Nov. 28 episode that had been the nadir for Impact in recent months drew just 921,000 viewers.
The new recent trend began with the high-profile departures of tna veteran stars Sting, AJ Styles and Jeff Jarrett, a talent drain that tna executives have dismissed as being a factor in its difficulties in retaining viewers.
