The show needs to be live in order to improve ratings. They have proven this with the live episodes they have done so far. Taping a months worth of shows in a week is not a good move ratings wise.

TNA in the UK has been doing very well ratings wise, with it being one of the most watched shows on the BRAVO network (which holds a good EPG number listing on the SKY satelite EPG).
TNA did focus alot of time on the UK market but that all seems to have stopped now with the fallout about BRAVO showing the PPV's.

We need TNA to be live in the USA and UK, with live HD feeds available internationally a la WWE for things to improve.

Ratings are key to the future of TNA.
And for them to improve financially they need to do their weekly show on the road. They aren't making diddly squat at the Impact Zone.
