In addition, both the TNA X Division Championship and the TNA World Tag Team Championship will be on the line at “Slammiversary.” Tickets for “Slammiversary” are on sale now at the DeSoto County Civic Center Box Office (4560 Venture Drive, Southaven, Miss.), all Ticketmaster outlets, online at Ticketmaster.com or by calling (662) 470-2131.
