I'm not a fan of the olympic idea, but the only positive thing that I can think of which would come of it would be potentially more interest in kendo or more people taking it up. I am curious if the addition of TKD and Judo experienced a long term uptake in students or not. Anyone have any statistics on that for other martial arts/sports or other newly introduced events.

I doubt kendo would get the airtime/exposure, likely the only ones who would watch it are those that already do kendo.
