1/29 TNA iMPACT Hits Cable High on AMC – Last week’s episode of TNA iMPACT delivered its strongest performance yet on AMC, continuing an upward trend since the show’s move to the network. The January 29 broadcast averaged 201,000 viewers, marking a notable increase from the 171,000 viewers recorded the previous week. This figure represents the highest viewership total for Impact since arriving on its new cable home.
The show also saw improvement in the key 18–49 demographic. Impact posted a 0.04 rating in the demo, up from the 0.03 rating the week prior. That number matched the demo rating from the program’s debut episode on AMC, signaling renewed momentum among younger viewers after an initial dip.
Additional context for the performance was provided by Jed Goodman on X, who noted that the lead-in movie preceding iMPACT averaged 238,000 viewers and a 0.03 rating in the 18–49 demographic. The stronger lead-in likely contributed to Impact’s audience growth, helping retain viewers into the wrestling broadcast.
The January 29 episode was a taped show and featured several key moments designed to maintain audience interest throughout the night. The program was headlined by the opening of the Feast or Fired briefcases, revealing which competitors earned future championship opportunities and which wrestler was fired as part of the stipulation. The episode also included a No Holds Barred match between Rich Swann and AJ Francis, Nic Nemeth facing new TNA signee and YouTube personality BDE, and the in-ring return of Elayna Black.
With Impact now posting consecutive weekly gains and setting a new high on AMC, the January 29 numbers suggest growing stability for TNA on cable as the promotion continues to establish itself on its new broadcast platform.
On a related note, it’s worth mentioning that iMPACT comfortably surpassed the January 31 episode of AEW Collision in YouTube video views.
