TNA Slammiversary Pre-Game Show: Shane Douglas and Jeremy Borash welcomed everyone to TNA’s third anniversary PPV. They plugged the debut of Samoa Joe, with his name getting a nice pop. They ran highlight clips of several angles, including Raven’s suspension.

Larry Zbyszko, inside the ring, announced the future of Dusty Rhodes saying, “he has no future in TNA.” Zbyszko said that there are rumors that Rhodes resigned, but asked everyone to enjoy the silent laughter and said that is what happened when people are fired.

Jeff Jarrett’s music hit and he came to the ring, interrupting Zbyszko. Jarrett demanded that Zbyszko tell the people the real truth, saying that Rhodes is just like Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Jeff Hardy, Hulk Hogan, and Sting, in that none of them are still around TNA because Jarrett ran them off. Jarrett said that he ran Rhodes out of town without laying a finger on him. Jarrett said he built TNA from the ground up and he’s going to enter a match he made famous – The King of the Mountain match. He said that last month it took two men to dethrone him, but tonight he’ll beat four men to reclaim the NWA championship. The fans chanted “Boring.”

Raven, dressed in his ECW era wardrobe, hit the ring and was handed a ring mic as Zbyszko called for security. Raven said that he was astounded by TNA’s incompetance. He said that TNA put Sean Waltman in the match tonight, when Raven defeated and destroyed him last month. Raven claimed that Zbyszko was in cahoots with Jarrett to hold back Raven. He says that Jarrett did it to him in the past in the USWA and has been doing it ever since Raven arrived in TNA. He said that Jarrett has been playing political games and cutting his legs off since his one title shot. He demanded to be put in the match.

Jarrett said that Raven just whines and complains about things he never gets done while Jarrett always says what he’s going to do and gets it done. He told Raven he doesn’t deserve to be in the King of the Mountain match, saying that just because he can fall through 7-8 tables, he thinks he can call himself a professional wrestler. Jarrett said that Raven and everyone else from the “Bingo Parlor” who represented hardcore wrestling are all a bunch of idiots. He said the hardcore revival was a bunch of crap and slapped Raven. Raven and Jarrett began brawling with security holding Raven back. Jarrett rolled out to the floor.

Two fans painted like Jeff Hardy taunted Jarrett with a sign and yelled at him from the front row. Jarrett grabbed the sign and then pulled one of them over the railing, beating on him. A number of TNA executives including Jerry Jarrett, Ron Harris, and Terry Taylor grabbed him and forced him out of the building.

Jeremy Borash and Shane Douglas acted as if it was total chaos and tried to “regain face.”

Sonny Siaki & Apollo vs. Simon Diamond & Tryton

Diamond came out as a surprise, saying he was forced out of TNA to sit in obscurity. He looked heavier than the last time he was on TV. Diamond said that while he was gone, he acquired the services of Trytan in order to make sure that no one ever tried to force him out of the company again. Diamond and Siaki opened up. Diamond and Trytan worked over Apollo. They were pushing that Diamond was the perfect partner for Trytan due to his experience. Siaki made the hot tag and cleaned house, hitting a hurrancanrana on Diamond. He powerslams Diamond for a two count. Apollo ducked a Trytan clothesline and hit a superkick. Diamond broke up the pin at two. Diamond superkicked Siaki. Trytan hit the T3 and scored the pin.

Your winners, Simon Diamond and Trytan!

They went backstage, where Jarrett was handcuffed as his father spoke to the police. Raven broke into the scene, being held back by security, screaming. Larry Zbyszko showed and added Raven to the King of the Mountain match, saying he was either going to sink or swim. Raven grinned at the announcement. The idea, as mentioned on the PWInsider.com Elite section earlier in the week, was to take Jeff Jarrett out of the match during the pre-game show. Raven will be replacing Jarrett in the main event due to the "incident."

Jeremy Borash, Shane Douglas, and Don West did a hard sell for the PPV as the pre-game went off the air.
