I can see TNA explaining the concept of the King of the Mountain match to Hogan and Bischoff and then at the end, Hogan says "Not gonna work that way brother" and they scrap it.

I see the 'Biggest PPV of the Summer' tagline. I wonder what that could be a reference to?

The astronomical beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere is marked by the June solstice. Depending on the year, the day that marks the offical start of summer can be June 20 or June 21. The following is a list of exact dates and times for upcoming summer solstices:

Fail?

[Arturo Classico]

Prediction for the King of the Mountain Match

RVD vs Styles vs. Anderson vs. Hardy vs. Lethal vs. Angle

put Lethal because it seems like they are going to push him plus I couldn't think of anyone else that made sense.

They only have 5 guys in KOTM, but I could see Lethal in the X-Division Title one if they have 2 again this year.

[SHAKEMASTER TV9 is Don Knotts]

The official Slammiversary has Wolfe, RVD, Sting, Hardy and AJ.

Oh okay yeah than X-Division one would be cool with Williams, Lethal, Kazarian, Kendrick, and Homicide.

{Spoiler}Judging from these spoilers, I suppose we will see Roxxi vs. Madison and Orlando vs. Rob Terry at the PPV.

To be fair, WCW's Fall Brawl PPVs were never held after September 21, which is the official start of the fall season.

I never said I agreed with that either.

[slickster]

I was just pointing out how this FAIL was not just perpetrated by TNA.

[lildude8218]

[JoDaNa1281]

RVD vs Sting for the World Title is official

I suppose they've retconned TNA's first and second anniversary shows as being Slammiversary events.

[The Spelunker!]

Don't you guys know that Slam translates to Ann in Yiddish?

Crazy thought but, anyone else thinking Young will be Morgan's partner and swerve the Band?

So far this is one of the worst undercards in recent memory as far as TNA PPVs go. Blegh.
