TNA iMPACT! last night scored a 1.12 (1.1) cable rating, and 1.4 million viewers. The show did quarter hours of 1.08, 1.10, 1.04, 0.98, 1.11, 1.09, 1.18, and 1.10.

Scott Steiner was booked to do a surprise run-in on the 3/5 AAA television taping in San Luis Potosi.

Due to loss of Ron Killings, and the question marks about Sean Waltman, AAA is looking for foreign talent. Besides Teddy Hart and Jack Evans, AAA is interested in bringing in Chris Sabin, Alex Shelley, and Mark and Jay Briscoe.

AAA is doing a $2 million branding campaign in May in Mexico and have secured KFC as a sponsor.

Speaking of KFC, Octagon is now appearing in a KFC television commercial. They are still teasing the idea of a Octagon vs. Fuerza Guerrera mask vs. mask match.
