Despite the best efforts of Jeremy Borash, Matt Hardy, Vanguard 1, Senor Benjamin, and wrestling Twitter getting the word out about the sequel to 'The Final Deletion', the Thursday night edition of TNA Impact Wrestling dropped in viewership.

The 'Delete or Decay' focused episode on POP TV drew in 337,000 viewers, down from last week's 351,000 viewers. A big reason for that was the regular season return of the NFL on NBC that did a 16.5 rating.

TNA's viewership has dropped for two straight weeks and with America's biggest sport as prime competition for the next few months, it might be a while before it gets any relief.

By comparison, 'The Final Deletion' episode of Impact did 410,000 viewers.

Aside from the 'Delete or Decay' spectacle, the show featured first round matches for the TNA Grand Championship, lots of Billy Corgan, and an EC3/Bobby Lashley brawl.

POP TV released 'Delete or Decay' on YouTube Friday.

Well then. That should be all the evidence we need to not do this again.

they went against the first NFL game of the season, they kept a decent number considering that

Hey next will be "Delete or Destroy", against Lashley.

It lasts five seconds, and ends with Lashley just shoot making Matt tap out in every single take.

no no no, imagine the visuals of Lashley taking the fireworks straight up not hurting him, or breaking Skarsgard, making George Washington tap out. This needs to happen

1. It's a giraffe. How is it going to tap out?
2. It would be much more impressive for him to spear the giraffe.
3. Neither of those are good because they sound like something Monty Brown would have done, and while it would totally work for Monty, no so much for Lashley.

Are you attempting to compare Shelton Benjamin to Monty Brown?

I'm not exactly sure how because it seems completely paradoxical, but somehow that is an insult to both of them.
