Im pretty green when it comes to Challenge's TNA coverage, but is Slammiversary the first PPV they've aired live?
Yes I think it's the first time it's gone live anywhere outside of the US and Canada

Yeah. They usually show them the Wednesday after, in a better timeslot, allowing them to cut ads into it, (and in some cases edit botches).

I think it's a great move on Challenge and TNA's part. With such a big gap between WWE PPV's atm, and Sky still charging for them considering the network offers much better value, this could genuinely gain a fair chunk of WWE PPV viewers. Personally, i've not watched TNA for 3 years or more, but being it live tonight is a draw to me. They'll get my rating. And providing they put on a fairly decent show tonight, they could gain a some new/previous fans back to the product. Baby steps etc....

Of course. I'm also going to Fear & Loathing VIII in November to see him & dance in person.
You'll need to get a Grado snapback cap to wear aswell. You'll need to look the part.

Gonna give this show a go tonight seeing that it's live. Hopefully it's not essentially non-canon like BFG.

I liked BFG though I do think the giants should have eaten the Royals

Let's hope Challenge don't have any random mid show breaks like Channel 4 did.

Noticed that TNA changed the wording on their website and are no longer saying the 3 UK dates next year are tv tapings. (credit roverts twitter)

Someone pointed that out on Twitter earlier.

They obviously aren't hedging their bets on survival.

It's a shame we never got TNA PPV's live a few years ago.

Josh sounds much better live than he does in Impact.

That's how it was back in the original days. Shame they lost that IMO.

Sounded like a 'we're going to die' speech from JB.

Also, anyone think JB resembles this guy?

It will be a sad day when TNA dies. If it was booked and managed better, it could have been a solid number 2 promotion in the US.

What is the show title? I thought it was just Slammiversary.

This is giving me a big WCW 2001 vibe.
