My Predictions for TNA Slammiversary XII

Three Way Steel Cage Match for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship:
Eric Young (c) vs. TBD vs. TBD

Now with MVP on the shelf due to injury, TNA has come up with a "Plan B" for the main event. This means that two guys from the Aries vs. King and Joe vs Lashley match are gonna have to do double duty. It just makes the stakes even higher for Eric Young, because what if both of MVP's goons (Kenny King and Bobby Lashley) were to be in this match?

Winner: Only because I'm digging this "fighting champion" persona Eric's going as right now, I am for him retaining.

Samoa Joe vs. Bobby Lashley (Winner advances to the main event)

Joe? Lashley? Talk about two former World Champions (and big, agile men) colliding. I'm personally excited for this match, only because these two are well-conditioned athletes, and Samoa Joe's is on the hunt for a victim. Will Bobby Lashley ultimately fall to the "Samoan Submission Machine" or will he find a way to come out on top?

Winner: Lashley, Joe's gonna kill you!

Austin Aries vs. Kenny King (Winner advances to the main event)

These two are certainly no stranger to each other (in the terms of their TNA careers, not elsewhere if you thinking about it), they've had matches when they were exclusive to the X Division. Now, they have a chance to go for the World Heavyweight Championship. Will Aries shut the mouth of the "Once-Pretty-Boy-Pitbull-Turned-Hothead", Kenny King?

Winner: I'm with The Greatest Man That Ever Lived for this one.

Knockouts Championship:
Angelina Love (c) (w/ Velvet Sky) vs. Gail Kim

Here you have The Beautiful People, who have been on a roll as of late, every since Angelina Love defeated Madison Rayne for the title at Sacrifice and becoming  a record-setting 6-time Knockouts Champion. Then you have Gail Kim, the first-ever and longest reigning Knockouts Champion in TNA history, who won a #1 Contender's Match against Madison Rayne and Brittany to get this title match at Slammiversary.

Winner: Although I am a huge mark for the Knockout division's resident "ninja", I see Angelina retaining.

Texas Death Match:
Bully Ray vs. Ethan Carter III

This rivalry has been heating up the last couple weeks and it came to head when EC3 and his sideman Rockstar Spud tried to expose Bully Ray's past with the help of the returning Brooke Tessmacher. Another factor is that Bully has a table with EC3's name on it (literally, folks) and who knows? He may use it on him on Sunday.

Winner: Bully Ray wins!

Tag Team Match:
The Von Erichs (Marshall and Ross) vs. TBA

The legendary Von Erich family will be in the house at Slammiversary! Who will they face? You'll have to tune in and find out!

Six-Man Ladder Match for the X Division Championship:
Sanada (c) vs Manik vs Tigre Uno vs Crazzy Steve vs Eddie Edwards vs Davey Richards

WHOA! Some of these guys participating in this match we haven't seen in a while. Sanada! Tigre Uno! Manik, especially! But, out of all the matches on the card, this one is going to be the most interesting for me. Why? You have the Tag Team Champions in the match, Crazzy Steve's making his Impact Wrestling in-ring debut, and three top guys of the X Division are returning. This match should be very fast-paced and high-risk. Who will come out on top?

Winner: I see Sanada retaining.

Singles Match:
Willow (w/ Abyss) vs. Magnus (w/ Bram)

This has been a building story for the past couple of weeks. Things really began to pick up when Magnus attacked Willow during his match with Bram, and bringing out the dangerous side to him that his old friend Bram always knew he had in him. This week on Impact Wrestling, Willow exclaims the "we" were going to take Magnus and Bram out. Who was that person who backed the "we" part? "The Monster" Abyss! 

Winner: This should be a good match, I see Willow winning this one.

Singles Match:
Mr. Anderson vs. James Storm

This seems likes an ironic turn of events. Remember when Mr. Anderson was having a battle with craziness? Now, it seems that the craziness has been passed on to him! He's been sort of mocking James Storm for the past several weeks, with the beer drinking and even coming out to James Storm's old theme "Longnecks and Rednecks" dressed as an old-time Westside Sheriff. I feel that there going to be some comedic relief coming out of this match, and I'm pretty curious to see it.

Winner: For some reason, I see Storm winning.
