Pursuit is the current home of IMPACT Wrestling, which airs every Friday at 10 p.m. ET. IMPACT began airing on Pursuit in January after their deal with Pop TV expired. Ratings and viewership for the show on Pursuit have gone unreported as it has fallen below a 0.03 rating each week.

The show has also run into several issues on Pursuit, with the lineup listing IMPACT has four 30-minute shows instead of one two-hour show, thus messing up DVR recordings. Recently, the channel aired commercials in place of the main event and aired the previous week's episode instead of the newest episode

Fans can still watch IMPACT live on Twitch every Friday at 10 p.m. ET.
