Simple: You shouldn't. You answered your own question.

Oh fuck. I'm actually agreeing with Clox...


Still, stream it. Don't order it. Don't encourage the bad behavior of these companies.

i think the age of the ppv is over, with the internet we can get the best matches with in an hour of the ppv, screw payng 40-50 bucks for a ppv.

The age of the PPV isn't over because people can download the matches for free. The age of the PPV is over because they care more about the TV show than the PPVs.

I'm actually pretty interested in Slammiversary. It looks like a pretty solid card, but TNA has a track record of turning stellar cards into shitcans.

Will definitely stream both of them either way, so it doesn't matter.

Xero speaks the truth.

I actually think the Monday night wars ruined PPV. The need to constantly one up the other weekly TV show made for PPV caliber TV. There was no going back from that as it's what fans now expected. You could no longer have a show full of jobber matches, keep the main eventers off TV and main event your weekly show with a mid-card title match.

So the solution was to just make the PPVs bigger than ever which takes a lot more intricate booking than was ever necessary before and that's usually too difficult for today's bookers.

Oh and to answer your question, stream it...

Or find a place near you that is showing it. I happen to work at a club that shows all WWE PPVs on a huge screen so I see it for free that way.

You probably wouldn't be able to find a place like that for TNA PPVs though... that just seems like it would be weird.

He will not be live ON the PPV. He will appear in a package or some other interview thing.

And despite how true that is, even the television show's suck... so that kinda puts PPVs at the bottom of the barrel, except Wrestlemania. I would say Slammiversary, but isn't this the first time they're making it the premiere PPV?

I can get away with that because I'm Jewish. If you say it, you're a racist.
