This is a pipe dream, but just a thought I had that would boost TNA viewership, and really solidify the partnership between TNA/WWE:

Would be dope if they would have had Dominik Mysterio defend (and lose) the IC title to AJ Styles at Slammiversary.
-Its a make good for the TNA title changing hands on a WWE PPV.
-It would have more people looking to watch TNA since anything could happen
-Its a make good for the way AJ Styles relationship with TNA ended
-Styles could even defend it a few times against TNA wrestlers, just like Trick has defended the TNA title against WWE wrestlers.

Again a pipe dream, but could be dope to see.

Their best cards since Genesis and Rebellion :whew:
Then again it's Slammiversary, they're always on their A game with their anniversary show
Yeah but you can still fumble what should be your best shows. We've all seen the mid to weak Manias, WK, All Ins, and Starrcades. This Slammiversary is being built well and taking some different angles and it's paying off.

You right on that one as the only two Slamm I can think of that was weak was Slamm 12 and 13.

Damn, that's tough if they was closing on landing a deal with Fox/Tubi :francis:
TV landscape is in hell right now and options are limited on top of it. I know that Jon Alba from Sports Illustrated mentioned back in May on Twitter that TNA managed to get some suitors for TV deals with streaming options. So if I was them, if any of my suitors are FX/Hulu (be a tough one for them), ION or Prime Video, I'd take em. I know others want them to go back home to Spike/Paramount Network, but seeing how Paramount is being turned inside out it real time, I wouldn't be looking at going back home :hubie:

Plus, Matthew and Tom was clowning the fukk out of Vance and Trump on Border Brawl back in May and that can be used against them seeing as David Ellison hangs around that republican circle

I can see TNA landing in a nice spot for them. The TV landscape is ass but with all these streaming options and the need for cheaper content, why not throw TNA a few bucks and see if they can attract an audience. They have more of a name than MLW or NWA right now.

By the way, I think I will be in for this. Haven't purchased a TNA PPV since 'Bound for Glory' a couple years ago but I've been following some of the stories on TNA+/YouTube and the card looks good. Looks like they are going to have their biggest crowd in years too.

Plus, nothing else is really on tomorrow evening.

The fact they're that close to Lockdown 2013 numbers is insane. Their rebuild back in 2017 to how the company is currently looking now needs to be studied.
They better let everyone attend the show tomorrow, don't even bother turning people away like they did in Genesis.
