Even Chris Regal of TNA Mecca, the most lunatic fringe site of TNA fandom there is, has given up on this PPV and even didn't finish Impact this week. Really goes to say something when that place has given up on them.

So what's the main event going to be now that EC3 and Angle is off the show? If EC3 vs Angle is left off the card, probably a tag match, or Storm vs Magnus.

I literally cannot believe how poorly this company is run. It's incredible and fascinating.

A PPV headlined by fat ass James Storm vs. f***ing Magnus?
Why not throw Mr. Anderson in there so we can reach negative buyrates? I know I'd want the price of this PPV refunded to me just for TNA having the nerve to call this a PPV.

Elimination Chamber was a house show that got changed into a PPV and TNA does have a history creating reverse versions of things.

f*** this company. The only reason I was even considering buying this PPV, outside of it possibly being the final TNA PPV, was EC3 vs Angle. Now I'm not even going to bother with it. Looking forward to the 500 buyrate for the show.

I cannot comprehend the dumb shit this company does. It's like their every instinct is wrong. I think it's time they switch to chicken salad on rye.

Having your - arguably - top PPV of the year and not even having a World Title match is so f***ing lame. I will have a hearty laugh if this show is main evented by Storm and Magnus. What a joke that'll be.

Right, so the main event of this PPV has been cancelled because of TV tapings going past the PPV?
HOW DO YOU EVEN MANAGE THIS

This might end up like BFG last year, which didn't even have the champion (Lashley) on the show.
How can TNA, a company which only has two actual PPVs a year now, mess this up so much. I don't understand it. You'd think it would be easier to put together a PPV with good build when you only do two a year and you have much more time to prepare and build a feud to feature on those shows. Yet they f*** it up, over and over again.

James Storm vs. Magnus No Time Limit Falls Count Anywhere Match that just happens to go outside the arena and ignore that obvious cut in the video feed as they fight all over the Universal backlot with several more cuts that you shouldn't pay attention to until they wind up back into the arena 2 and a half hours later for a lazy pinfall after Mickie James turns on her husband and joins The Revolution.

Hearing Angle/EC3 has been moved from Slammiversary to the July 1st episode of Impact, as all the TV after the PPV is being taped before it, they were concerned that the PPV result would get out.

UK people: If you've not been watching impact (insert joke here), Challenge had the little scrolling bar along the bottom to announce that they will be showing Slammiversary live (usual 1am time) as well as the usual Wednesday night showing.

So, wait a minute; how long has TNA known that they couldn't do Magnus vs. Angle on PPV, or risk spoiling things during the TV tapings?
I mean, that's horrible enough, for the various reasons already posted here. It's stupid, it's not THAT hard to work around, and it's something they should've known about well in advance and planned for.
Put that all aside.
They know that their main event, their one big marquee match that could sell the show, can't happen...and all they've done to make up for it so far is announce one goddamned match with two weeks to go before the show?!
TNA has a long, illustrious history of not telling people what will be on PPVs until about a week beforehand. Now, they're faced with a potential crisis moment where they MUST make up for a titanic screw up, put a really strong card together to make up for the fact that they botched the title match schedule...AND THEY HAVE ONE FREAKING MATCH ANNOUNCED WITH TWO WEEKS UNTIL THE SHOW.

The offical TNA SLammiversary live thread might end up being the saddest thread in the history of this board.
It'll have one post; me saying 'lol Slammiversary.'
