After what Eric Bischoff posted on his Facebook account earlier today, I have to imagine that he’s got a big smile and grin on his face at this news…

Early reports indicate that last night’s episode of iMPACT! averaged about 1,900,000 viewers throughout the show. While this number has not been translated to a cable rating for the night at this point, we can compare this number to last week’s average viewership, which was 1,700,000.

Unscientifically speaking, if the same number of viewers were watching cable last night as during last Thursday night (nearly impossible), then the 1,900,000 average viewership would translate into a 1.49 rating. This rating would be the highest rating in the history of the show’s run on Spike TV.
