TOTAL NONSTOP ACTION (TNA) WRESTLINGâS âSLAMMIVERSARYâ SPECTACULAR HITS THE MEMPHIS AREA ON JUNE 8!
TNA Wrestling is proud to announce that its worldwide Pay-Per-View spectacular âSlammiversary 2008â will be held live in the Memphis area at the DeSoto County Civic Center in Southaven, Mississippi at 7 p.m., Sunday, June 8, airing exclusively on Pay-Per-View.
TNA President Dixie Carter made the âSlammiversaryâ announcement on the âOff The Ropesâ ESPN radio show (KQPN 730 AM) in Memphis. The city of Memphis is the top-rated television market in the United States for âTNA iMPACTâ on Spike TV (Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT).
âMemphis and the Mid-South know wrestling as well as anyone in the world, and weâre excited to show some of the best fans in the world that TNA has become the new king of professional wrestling action, both in the ring and with our unique fan experience,â Carter said.
âSlammiversaryâ will celebrate TNAâs sixth anniversary, a feat industry insiders thought impossible when the company debuted in Nashville in 2002. TNA, once labeled as a promotion that wouldnât last more than a few months, will come to the Memphis to celebrate a worldwide promotion spanning over 110 countries in six years.
TNA World Heavyweight Champion Samoa Joe, Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle, Booker T, âThe Phenomenalâ AJ Styles, âThe Iconâ Sting, Kevin Nash, âThe Instant Classicâ Christian Cage, Scott Steiner, Tomko, Team 3D, Gail Kim, The Latin American Xchange, The Motor City Machineguns, Robert Roode, âBlack Machismoâ Jay Lethal, Awesome Kong, ODB, Curry Man, Shark Boy, Eric Young and many more will be in action in for the three-hour live event.
