Impact Wrestling ratings up a bit for ReDefined

Impact Wrestling’s ratings were up a bit for this week’s special episode.

The show, called “Impact ReDefined,” averaged 225,000 viewers on Pop TV last night. That’s up from last week’s 212,000 viewers but is the fourth-lowest audience that Impact has drawn in 2018.

The rating in the 18-49 demo was a 0.07, up from last week’s 0.05.

ReDefined featured two title matches, with Tessa Blanchard winning the Knockouts Championship in a triple threat match against Su Yung and Allie and Brian Cage retaining the X Division title against Fenix. There was also an angle where Moose turned heel on Eddie Edwards during the main event and aligned with Austin Aries and Killer Kross.

This was the last week of the NFL preseason. Next week’s Impact will go against the first game of the regular season, with Impact facing competition from Thursday Night Football for the next few months.

This time last year, the August 31, 2017 edition of Impact drew 268,000 viewers and a 0.05 rating in the demo.
