The New TNA Slammiversary PPV Main Event Is …… ?

TNA announced the following on their website…

As announced earlier today, MVP has been deemed medically unfit to compete in Sunday’s Slammiversary Main Event. Now, the Director of Wrestling Operations has announced his replacement(s).

This Sunday, Samoa Joe is scheduled to face Bobby Lashley and Austin Aries is scheduled to challenge Kenny King. We can now report that the winners of each of those bouts will then be added to Sunday’s Main Event against TNA World Champion Eric Young – creating a Three Way Steel Cage Match for the TNA World Heavyweight Title.

UPDATE: MVP posted the following, commenting on being pulled from the Slammiversary pay-per-view…

My knee injury is legit. I’m very disappointed by the timing of this injury and the unfortunate repercussions that accompany it.

Now to “business”. I’m still the Director of Wrestling Operations for TNA. AND…. “the board of directors” want a FAIR main event match!
