Slammiversary 2012

[Automatic]

Look:

There were about 5,000 tickets out for tonight's Slammiversary show, which is well above any TNA show outside of the U.K. in quite some time. As best we can tell, if there has been papering, it's not heavy. Most parts of the building only have scattered seats available and there are upper sections where you can get a strip of eats together, but the floor and lower tier are sold. The place is set up for about 6,000.

They drew a crowd.

Match 1: Austin Aries V Samoa Joe: 4.5 Stars
Match 2: Kid Kash V Hernandez: 1.5 Stars
Match 3: Devon & Garrett Bischoff V Robbie E & Robbie T: 2 Stars
Match 4: Mr. Anderson V Jeff Hardy V Rob Van Dam: 3 Stars
Match 5: Crimson V James Storm: 4 Stars (I won't give squash matches this high a rating often.)
Match 6: Gail Kim V Miss Tessmacher: 3.5 Stars (Thinking of upgrading this to 4 Stars, but on the bubble still.)
Match 7: Bully Ray V Joseph Park: 2 Stars
Match 8: Kurt Angle & AJ Styles V Christopher Daniels & Kazarian: 5 Stars
Match 9: Sting V Bobby Roode: 3 Stars

Overall: 3.1 Stars

This was a good PPV, though mathematically an above average PPV, I give it a personal non-mathematical rating of: 4 Stars. Extreme Rules by WWE was the best PPV so far this year. This would be the Second best PPV so far by either company. Not bad at all.

This was one of the best crowds for any show I've seen so far this year though. Easily.

The Hernandez vs Kash match was much better than that crappy tag match with Garrett Devon and the Robbie's. My only complaint was the lack of build. The crowd was way into that match.

Neither match was good. But I did think the Devon/Bischoff match was marginally better.

I wonder why they chose Kash and Hernandez though? Maybe they are going to reference their long history with TNA before hand.

Hernandez because he is from Texas....
