TNA Slammiversary Thread

Tonight, live on the TNA Network, witness:

- Jeff Jarrett returning to main event a PPV in 2015 in a match where he's going to win and then not appear again for at least two months.

- Bob Ryder yelling at internet fans like Abe Simpson going after a cloud.

- A bunch of matches leading up to the title matches that were already taped but don't air until after this show!

Good thing it's only $9.99...oh wait, they want FIFTY BUCKS for this?  Never mind then.  Go with FIFA Women's World cup instead. Plus the governing body there is slightly less stupid and corrupt.  

Comments

  1. It appears the time has finally come where Wrestlemania 17 meets its match.

    ReplyDelete
  2. But there are no Women's World Cup games tonight, Scott!

    THERE ARE NO WOMEN'S WORLD CUP GAMES!!

  4. $50 for a TNA PPV? Is TNA still even worth $50?

    ReplyDelete

  6. WWE network should be running Greed 2001 against this shit.

    I may watch that tonight when I get home anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  7. LOL, that'd be a great livewatch idea following this.

    ReplyDelete
  8. They should put the title on Jeff just for shits and giggles

    ReplyDelete
  9. As a company? It's close.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Oh, I said it, remember it and write it down -

    "I'M CASHING IN MY KING OF THE MOUNTAIN TITLE SHOT, SLAPNUTS!"

    ReplyDelete
  11. "Bob Ryder yelling at internet fans like Abe Simpson going after a cloud."

    Legit LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Hope there's no overlap with the PPV and the Grateful Dead concert.

    ReplyDelete
  13. One thing the WWE is doing is killing the value of the other pics; I mean I can't imagine paying $50 for this when Wrestlemania only costs $10.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Is anyone actually watching this atrocity?

    ReplyDelete
  15. What you're saying is that TNA should start their own network?

    ReplyDelete
  16. Wikipedia lists Jeff Jarrett as a 16 time world champion.

    ReplyDelete
  17. TNA shouldn't even start their own YouTube channel.

    ReplyDelete
  18. (Vince McMahon 1990 voice). Images appear, of strange and powerful forces. But of all the forces in the universe, the two most powerful...Jeff Jarrett and Eric Young. It's the Ultimate Challenge, it's Slammiversary!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  19. TNA Slammiversary XIII: Holy Shit, There Have Been Thirteen of These? Have They Been Skipping Numbers? Wow, They Haven't! starts next, as your local PPV provider rolls on!

    ReplyDelete
  20. James Storm look like Jim Neidhart now.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I know I shouldn't, but I cannot help reading the posts at TNA Mecca. I suspect they're in a parallel universe where TNA is not terrible and doomed.

    ReplyDelete
  22. The TNA Network should definitely start every broadcast day with the Local Aurora 10 Access intro that the "Wayne's World" sketches had.

    ReplyDelete
  23. "Get your tickets now to the next TNA tour of the UK in 2016!" Wow, TNA in 2016...

    ReplyDelete
  24. "Spirit king • 5 minutes ago
    The GFW/TNA storyline could be one of the best storylines in Pro Wrestling history, if it's done right. The NWO storyline was done slow, but it gotten too fast pace after everyone started to join NWO. I think we should have one company left standing."



    Oh, I think one company left standing is wildly optimistic...

    ReplyDelete
  25. The only solution is really to bring back the Ace's & Eights

    ReplyDelete
  26. Anybody have any great Slammaversary memories?


    Off the top of my head..

    ReplyDelete
  27. Damn. Forgot about the Dead shows. Think they are streaming anywhere?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Is this an idiot for TNAMecca?

    ReplyDelete
  29. Yeah... on ustream, I do believe.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Opening history of TNA video package and it's all Hogan so far, haha.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Imaybe they'll have a time machine that takes you back to 2006 when the company was actually hot?

    ReplyDelete
  32. He really thinks he's Ric Flair now.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I just watched Wayne's World with my 7 year old last night, party on.

    ReplyDelete
  34. They did have one, not sure if they still do. It was pretty good, actually.

    ReplyDelete
  35. With it TNA can compete with the WWE and HBO!

    ReplyDelete
  36. DJ Z is the first wrestler we see, and all I can think of is Hogan yelling "this is why this company's in the damn shape it is, because of bullshit like this."

    ReplyDelete
  37. Kinda bored. Might start tweeting crap to Bob Ryder

    ReplyDelete
  38. I see they are on YouTube for $20. I was hoping for something a little less... legitimate.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I would mark out for a "slapnuts" on this PPV.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Slamma-jim-jamma-versary

    ReplyDelete
  41. http://www.ustream.tv/channel/heavythingsopener was the magic link last night.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I'll ask again. Is there a Tigre Dos or a Tigre Cero?

    ReplyDelete
  43. Oh yeah, it'll be huge. Two wrestling promotions that are essentially the same thing with talent that works for whichever one is more likely to actually pay them real life money that weekend will battle it out in front of 300 to 500 fans.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I'm gonna watch GAB 1991 instead for approximately 33 cents today. Negative 4 star scaffold match beats Jeff Jarrett heat spots (in 2015) any day of the week. Oh yeah - and $50? Yeah - sure thing.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Bring back the Villianos to feud with the Tigres.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Jonathan Snowden on Twitter "If you're live tweeting TNA wrestling, please think about how your life's path led you to this dismal moment"

    ReplyDelete
  47. Sharknado 3's subtltle is "Oh Hell No!"?


    Okay.

    ReplyDelete
  48. I was it was Edward Snowden.

    ReplyDelete
  49. "Shades of Elijah Burke".

    ReplyDelete
  50. These guys are blowing spot after spot.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Well they skip payments, might as well skip numbers.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Feels extremely indie.

    ReplyDelete
  53. If we are talking market value, the tape library can't be worth more than $9.99.

    ReplyDelete
  54. We are at 8.5 indie right now.

    ReplyDelete
  55. They do, and they upload full matches on it. It's pretty rad at times.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Tower of Doom. The spot of every multi person women's match. And this match apparently.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Manages by various Mr. Wrestlings. I love in shoots with old guys they just call them 'Wrestling.' Like 'I had a match with Wrestling 2 in Paducah...'

    ReplyDelete
  58. Fuck it, here's a gif for no reason.

    http://imgur.com/mZinPNV

    ReplyDelete
  59. Non-impressive frogsplash.

    ReplyDelete
  60. That certainly was a lot of well coordinated somersaults.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Wrestling sequence into the corner German was pretty nifty.

    ReplyDelete
  62. The Great American Bash 91 was not that bad of show. Granted at the time it probably one of the worst. But its just boring but its not bad though.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Seth Rollins banned from music festival: https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/11659247_923477544357967_7931188954637374133_n.jpg?oh=b443291f791eaaf6de456f7fb27751f4&oe=5631E829

  65. @brydertna congrats on your last PPV before you go out of business. Meltzer said you guys were through. You think you go to CZW?

    ReplyDelete
  66. Whoa. Borash has swollen since I last saw him. Man.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Ewwww, don't widen your eyes like that, JB. Never again.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Reese Witherspoon guest hosted Raw?

    ReplyDelete
  69. Definitely rocking the heavy with child look tonight.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Sweet Jesus, I'm not exactly in shape, but Jeremy Borash probably has his own gravitational pull right now.

    ReplyDelete
  71. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CIX3skDUcAEKlNi.png

    ReplyDelete
  72. The one TNA talent that WWE should actually be interested in... Jeremy Borash.

    ReplyDelete
  73. @Billy Meltzer is reporting you guys are basically through. Once TNA goes outta business you going to Lucha Underground?

    ReplyDelete
  74. The MegaDouches ASPLODE

    ReplyDelete
  75. Lol. can you imagine the rage if one week Renee was gone and Borash was there instead?

    ReplyDelete
  76. I feel bad for him, sticking to TNA.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Jeremy Borash or Todd Pettengill..?

    ReplyDelete
  78. Hey, remember when they promised a big Hollywood guy coming in and it was a Big Brother contestant? That's so TNA.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Pettengill in a rout.

    ReplyDelete
  80. They should replace them all with an easel that has a poster board with 'What are your thoughts?' written on it since that's all they are allowed to ask.

    ReplyDelete
  81. Mitch, The GodfatherJune 28, 2015 at 6:23 PM

    I've always liked Robbie E.

    ReplyDelete
  82. "The Man" is literally the most uninspired nickname I've ever heard.

    ReplyDelete
  83. He did a lot to improve in the ring though

    ReplyDelete
  84. I used to hate Pettengill with a vengeance. Mellowed over the years though.

    ReplyDelete
  85. The Man...somewhere Billy Gunn is cursing himself for not coming up with THAT nickname for Failed Solo Push #37.

    ReplyDelete
  86. That's a hell of a ring robe.

    ReplyDelete
  87. Why is Jesse's music the theme for a villain from a JRPG?

    ReplyDelete
  88. Tom Phillips

    ReplyDelete
  89. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 28, 2015 at 6:24 PM

    They paid that Survivor guy $500,000 for 2 appearances.

    ReplyDelete
  90. They need a caveman gimmick like Tazmaniac again but call it "Billy the Homosapien".

    ReplyDelete
  91. I can't believe you guys are shitting on TNA so much. Look how many sides that ring has!!!

    ReplyDelete
  92. He's no Lex Luger.

    ReplyDelete
  93. TNA goes under, no more pans up Christy Hemme's body. Waaah.

    ReplyDelete
  94. Looks like a cross of Billy Kidman and Edge.

    ReplyDelete
  95. It meant more Lisa Marie, so I was in.

    ReplyDelete
  96. Don't worry, dancing Stephanie McMahon has your back:

    http://i.imgur.com/EAtvCN3.gif

    ReplyDelete
  97. His glee in talking about how he got paid an extra year for nothing after they mistakenly allowed his deal to roll over is quite funny.

    ReplyDelete
  98. Triple-digit?


    Are we all supposed to weigh under 100 lbs?

    ReplyDelete
  99. If you're gonna pay a Survivor star a lot of money, you pay the tiny dicked tax evader. Now that dude was a heel.

    ReplyDelete
  100. Yes. Like he does.

    ReplyDelete
  101. Nursery Rhymes Roman Reigns was better on the mic than this clown, holy balls.

    ReplyDelete
  102. I think he meant less than 1,000 people are watching.

    ReplyDelete
  103. This show is so WCW 2000.

    ReplyDelete
  104. Better presenter too.

    http://imgur.com/xstOhzH

    ReplyDelete
  105. Is DJ Ran up in our area?

    ReplyDelete
  106. I think he forgot his lines halfway through. There was a definite thinking pause.

    ReplyDelete
  107. It looks like she dropped some change and is trying to pick it up all around her, then she just says fuck it.

    ReplyDelete
  108. "Line"

    "Nuclear power!"

    ReplyDelete
  109. Worse freak out over a Z lister moment - "WE GOT JESSE FROM BIG BROTHER!" or "OH MY GOD THAT'S KING MO!"

    ReplyDelete
  110. I love how Pope is listing off teams from other companies as all-time greats. No wonder you're going out of business.

    ReplyDelete
  111. Speaking of DJ Ran, I just learned this guy existed today. A DJ doing remixes of awful bro country garbage? That calls him self Dee Jay? Jesus people are rubes.


    http://www.billboard.com/biz/articles/news/radio/6049326/dee-jay-silver-brings-the-country-remixes-you-didnt-know-you-wanted

    ReplyDelete
  112. Let's count how many people on this show WWE would be interested in picking up. So far: 0.

    ReplyDelete
  113. I dunno, Jesse has a crazy body that might have Vince overreacting.

    ReplyDelete
  114. "Remember those teams? Weren't they great". Stares at the hard camera trying not to cry.

    ReplyDelete
  115. But he can't remember his written lines?

    ReplyDelete
  116. Named himself after a shitty Street Fighter character?

    ReplyDelete
  117. Doesn't prevent Ryback from staring at cue cards for every backstage segment.

    ReplyDelete
  118. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 28, 2015 at 6:32 PM

    The black Guile!

    ReplyDelete
  119. That dropkick was a "flying two-footed whatever, fuck it".

    ReplyDelete
  120. NASCAR star Jeff Hammond pinning Frankie Kazarian with The Driving Elbow.

    ReplyDelete
  121. Ahem. Touché.

    ReplyDelete
  122. The T-1000 lets the police copper pilot live, but kills the liquid nitrogen truck driver. Never understood that.

    ReplyDelete
  123. Just tuned into the 1995 Great American Bash on a segment showcasing Kimberly's acting ability which got her a bit part in the 40 Year Old Virgin.

    ReplyDelete
  124. He's a cop. The blue shield extends across generations and species.

    ReplyDelete
  125. Is that the one where she can't resist the charms of The Booty Man?

    ReplyDelete
  126. Acting ability had nothing to do with it.

    ReplyDelete
  127. https://historeviews.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/jesus_facepalm51.jpg

    ReplyDelete
  128. Except all of the other cops he's killed.


    What he should have said is "I like your copper", because when a Terminator says that, people die.

    ReplyDelete
  129. This isn't great, but it's honestly better than it has any right to be.

    ReplyDelete
  130. "Yep Mode" Abeyance Brown ©June 28, 2015 at 6:36 PM

    So for those watching, how is the show?

    ReplyDelete
  131. LOL. WTF IS that?!?!

    ReplyDelete
  132. I tried to watch Dragon Ball Evolution as a joke but I just couldn't handle more than 5 minutes

    ReplyDelete
  133. White girl trying to be black. See: Azalea, Iggy.

    ReplyDelete
  134. "Yep Mode" Abeyance Brown ©June 28, 2015 at 6:37 PM

    I could tell he wasn't the greatest after listening to the first line he uttered on the first night.

    ReplyDelete
  135. Robbie is a good hand.

    ReplyDelete
  136. Right or left?

    ReplyDelete
  137. "Yep Mode" Abeyance Brown ©June 28, 2015 at 6:38 PM

    It's good in small doses, like the Cinema Sins videos and the Honest Trailer.

    ReplyDelete
  138. Variation is the key.

    ReplyDelete
  139. "The Stranger". Nice every now and then.

    ReplyDelete
  140. Robbie E's theme song:

    http://i.imgur.com/CaNslTd.gif

    ReplyDelete
  141. Somewhere between bad and completely irrelevant.

    ReplyDelete
  142. I can't believe they liked her Tits that much they just HAD to cast her. Wasnt she like 40ish at that point?

    ReplyDelete
  143. So, is HHH the Smithers to Vince's Mr. Burns? Except not gay and in love with him?

    ReplyDelete
  144. Outside of the circus of botchery, it's been mostly inoffensive.

    ReplyDelete
  145. But still... They were SPECTACULAR.

    ReplyDelete
  146. http://teamfourstar.com/podcast/tfs-riffs-dragon-ball-evolution


    Try with this on top.

    ReplyDelete
  147. Weird decision, I thought they were gonna push Jessie as a heel

    ReplyDelete
  148. Matt looks like he's sweating Crisco.

    ReplyDelete
  149. I'm sure HHH likes to taste Steph after Vince had her first.

    ReplyDelete
  150. I'M BRAM, MY NAME SOUNDS LIKE A SIDE DISH. RARRRGH. I'M BRAM.

    ReplyDelete
  151. Matt Hardy's face looks like a pot pie. I bet his brain is made of tender beef chunks in a rich gravy.

    ReplyDelete
  152. Nice to see Vader again.

    ReplyDelete
  153. Matt Morgan? Seriously?


    Ugh, can we stop trying to make that dude happen?

    ReplyDelete
  154. Jeff Jarrett AND Matt Hardy in the King of the Mountain match? Maybe Gangrel will be a surprise entrant.

    ReplyDelete
  155. He really is fetch walking.

    ReplyDelete
  156. Oh come on, it should happen any day now!

    ReplyDelete
  157. I still get a total Mr. Burns vibe from Vince.

    ReplyDelete
  158. "Yep Mode" Abeyance Brown ©June 28, 2015 at 6:44 PM

    But, but, he sent his DNA into space.

    ReplyDelete
  159. "Bram, they don't want to see us wrestle!"

    I love shoot comments that aren't supposed to be shoot comments.

    ReplyDelete
  160. Jim Duggan is death to a young guy trying to get over. I'm not sure Craig Pittman would have been anything, but this is definitely the end of it for him.

    ReplyDelete
  161. "Yep Mode" Abeyance Brown ©June 28, 2015 at 6:44 PM

    Well, Bram is slightly entertaining.

    ReplyDelete
  162. I wonder if The Ascension would have been less dead in the water if Bram had stuck around.

    ReplyDelete
  163. Still I believe both guys are very proud of that match. So weird.

    ReplyDelete
  164. Jeff Jarrett is only 47; I thought he was in his mid-30s when he started his WWF run in 93.

    ReplyDelete
  165. "Yep Mode" Abeyance Brown ©June 28, 2015 at 6:46 PM

    I don't know about that, but I guarantee that someone would have been literally dead.

    ReplyDelete
  166. More facial hair to look more Dothraki-esque would prevent The Ascension from looking like two college guys who like Avenged Sevenfold and long walks in the cemetery.

    ReplyDelete
  167. He started wrestling at like 17 or something.

    ReplyDelete
  168. It's 50 bucks???!!!??? Lol what???

    ReplyDelete
  169. Hey, "Hail to the King" rocks.

    ReplyDelete
  170. Serious question; anyone buy it?

    ReplyDelete
  171. That's my thought. Bram at least looks like a wrestler.

    ReplyDelete
  172. "Yep Mode" Abeyance Brown ©June 28, 2015 at 6:47 PM

    Bram always looked like a crazy hobo version of Gerard Butler to me.

    ReplyDelete
  173. Bruce Campbell is an entertaining fellow.

    ReplyDelete
  174. The Great American Bash would Have been a perfectly acceptable Clash of Champions but it makes a lousy pay-per-view.

    ReplyDelete
  175. Is Aries working the show still? I'd actually stream that match if anyone watching let's me know when it starts.

    ReplyDelete
  176. That'd be like buying shoes for a guy who's scheduled to have his foot amputated.

    ReplyDelete
  177. Hmm good point actually. Only the main feels special. The rest is basically throw-away.

    ReplyDelete
  178. "Gets left foot amputated, friend buys a right shoe".

    ReplyDelete
  179. Aries vs Daver Ridchards, on paper the better match of the card

    ReplyDelete
  180. Streaming a tna ppv is like taking a shopping cart full of cans from a homeless guy choking on his own puke.

    ReplyDelete
  181. Dave
    Daver
    Davest


    So Richards is almost there.

    ReplyDelete
  182. Streaming, and it's barely worth THAT.

    ReplyDelete
  183. O I thought he and roode were tagging vs the wolves?

    ReplyDelete
  184. Speaking of lousy pay-per-views... how bout this match you are expected to pay $50 to watch betweeen two dudes WWE fired?

    ReplyDelete
  185. Steve Regal just made my night with his promo: "In 1946 Adolf Hitler was in the bunker and turned to Joseph Gerbels and said, "I think we've blown it." That what those to fat slobs are in their locker room thinking right now..." and it only got better from there.

    ReplyDelete
  186. They did the job to the tv taping schedule.

    ReplyDelete
  187. "Let's run down tonight's card"

    *uncomfortable silence*

    ReplyDelete
  188. They are, but since the PPV can't have any important result they are just wrestling to dertermine the Tag Title match stipulation

    ReplyDelete
  189. Macklin, Man With The KnightJune 28, 2015 at 6:52 PM

    Davey and Aries had a pretty amazing match in ROH a few years ago. If this match is half as good it should be MOTN.

    ReplyDelete
  190. The Clashes used to be pretty awesome for what they were. And the title us cool.

    ReplyDelete
  191. The Rock showed up unnanounced at WWE's house show in Boston.

    ReplyDelete
  192. "Yep Mode" Abeyance Brown ©June 28, 2015 at 6:53 PM

    It's pretty sad though, because of TNA's inability to hold onto steady TV deals, both of their prestige PPV's have been reduced to One Night Only shows with little to no meaning.
