TNA Impact Viewership: Steady Audience with Demo Shift on AMC

The February 26, 2026, episode of Thursday Night iMPACT! on AMC drew a consistent audience, but experienced a notable shift in its key demographic, according to recent viewership data from Wrestlenomics.

Viewership Numbers Remain Consistent

Thursday Night iMPACT! garnered 233,000 viewers on AMC for the February 26th broadcast. This figure mirrors the viewership from the February 19th episode, which also attracted 233,000 viewers. The week-over-week comparison indicates no change in the total audience size.

Decline in the 18-49 Demographic

Despite the stable overall viewership, the show saw a decrease in the crucial 18-49 demographic. The February 26th episode achieved a 0.03 rating in this demo, a 40% drop from the 0.05 rating recorded on February 19th. This suggests a shift in viewership, with fewer younger viewers tuning in.
