TNA News: Early iMPACT! Rating, Rhino’s Promo, Christian/Samoa Joe, more

- The rumored rating for this week’s edition of TNA Impact is a 1.0. That number is not confirmed, but the actual number should come very close that range, according to Mike Johnson. It should be noted that this week’s number is a big deal for TNA as this is the first week without a UFC-related lead in, so a solid number would definitely boost the spirits of TNA management as well as Spike TV’s opinion of the product.

- In Johnny Devine’s latest column on Slam Wrestling he lists the following TNA wrestlers that he feels could be successful in Mixed Martial Arts competition: Samoa Joe, The Naturals’ Chase Stevens, and Senshi.

- For those of you that liked Rhino’s promo on this past week’s edition of Impact, you are in for a treat, as TNA plans to continue to write these types of promos. They have posted the unedited version of this past week’s promo on TNAWrestling.com.

- Christian Cage and Samoa Joe recently filmed guest appearances for the G4 Network.

- For those of you that missed Impact this week, Jamie D’s TNA ring name is Sirelda.

- The Wrestling Channel in the United Kingdom will air TNA’s 2006 Victory Road PPV on July 23rd.
