Talk:Slammiversary (2005)

Timing

I took the time to go through the DVD and get accurate timings for all match decisions, using the DVD player's timer (I use Cyberlink PowerDVD 7.0). The following is a running diagram. The preshow match is based on the timing for the Preshow feature title. The others are based on the timing for the DVD's main title. Matches are timed from the opening bell to the final bell. Multiple-fall matches have mid-term falls counted at the strike of three. --Kitch 12:46, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

• I'll do this one. Give me a few days! MathewTownsend (talk) 01:41, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
  • Take your time, I'm in no hurry.--WillC 04:25, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

Background

• "with credit for the name going to TNA wrestler Shark Boy" - I don't see that in the citations.
  • Crap, I put the wrong source in there. I will try to find it again.--WillC 22:08, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
    • Found the ref and added.--WillC 22:15, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
• "TNA released a poster promoting the event featuring the tagline "Three Year Anniversary Spectacular" at some point beforehand. TNA planned a thirty-minute pre-show prior to the event" - is this necessary, as I don't see it in the references.
  • Its part of the production of the event; both are kinda common sense, since they are right in front of the reader. The pre-show occurred and the poster is in the article.--WillC 22:08, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

Storylines

• I understand the various storylines. Where I get confused is sentences like: "The TNA X Division Championship was defended by then-champion Christopher Daniels against Chris Sabin and Michael Shane in a Three Way match at Slammiversary." - because all these are storylines leading up to Slammiversary, right? Hard Justice etc.? And Slammiversary hasn't happened yet in the article.

• This is clear: "A storyline heading into Slammiversary revolved around America's Most Wanted (Chris Harris and James Storm; AMW) recent losing streak and decension ... " because it's clear that Slamiversary hasn't happened yet. It is "Event".

• Well its all meant to be in past tense. I could change that one to "TNA promoted a Three Way match for the TNA X Division Championship between then-champion Christopher Daniels, Chris Sabin, and Michael Shane heading into Slammiversary."--WillC 01:14, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

Reply

• I'm not underestimating the job you have done in putting this article together. You have done a big job. Much if it is just that I'm not familiar with topic enough. I think that making it clear in the "pre" sections that Slammiversary hasn't happened, perhaps by mentioning it as little as possible until you get to the "Event". Just a suggestion, as I'm not the one who wrote the article, nor could I do so! MathewTownsend (talk) 01:26, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
  • I'll try that, do you have any more issues with the article I can take care of, I'd love to get this to GA like the others I have done.--WillC 01:40, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

Reply

• No. I've run through the article and all seems fine. I really do appreicate your time and effort. MathewTownsend (talk) 01:56, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
  • Well I switched the X Division beginning over and I checked around for anything that would confuse a reader, didn't really see anything.--WillC 02:58, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

This is not the 3rd Slammiversary ppv event in the chronological series. This is the very first Slammiversary PPV put on by TNA Wrestling, LLC. They even acknowledged it on their own website at one point. The chronology for all TNA Slammiversary PPV articles needs to be edited to reflect the correct number. Here's the correct chronology below.

• Slammiversary 2005 = 1st Slammiverasry ppv event
• Slammiversary 2006 = 2nd Slammiversary ppv event
• Slammiversary 2007 (aka Slammiversary V) = 3rd Slammiversary ppv event
• Slammiversary 2008 = 4th Slammiversary ppv event
• Slammiversary 2009 (aka Slammiversary Seven) = 5th Slammiversary ppv event
• Slammiversary 2010 (aka Slammiversary VIII) = 6th Slammiversary ppv event
• Slammiversary 2011 (aka Slammiversary IX) = 7th Slammiversary ppv event
• Slammiversary 2012 (aka Slammiversary X) = 8th Slammiversary ppv event
