List of TNA pay-per-view events
From Bywpedia
This is a chronological list of pay-per-views promoted by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). TNA first began producing pay-per-view events per week in 2002. This was seen up until 2004, when they commenced to be held per month. Since 2009, TNA reduced their travel schedule for pay-per-events outside of the Impact Wrestling Zone and usually take their Lockdown and Bound for Glory events on the road. Pay-per-view events are also a major revenue source for the promotion.

Originally, TNA held all of its shows on pay-per-view on a weekly basis which began on June 19, 2002 in Huntsville, AL. Then TNA taped 110 more of these weekly pay-per-views from the Tennessee State Fairgrounds, in Nashville, TN. The last of these pay-per-views aired on September 8, 2004. TNA began airing their television program TNA Impact! (which premiered June 4, 2004) as its primary program.
After the weekly pay-per-views, TNA felt that they had a fanbase that would support monthly three-hour pay-per-views . On November 7, 2004, TNA aired the first of these pay-per-views, Victory Road. It has followed this basis ever since. In 2005, Hard Justice and Sacrifice took place in the months of May and August, respectively, but has since traded places. No Surrender originally took place in July, while Unbreakable took place in September. In 2006, No Surrender replaced Unbreakable as the September PPV, while Victory Road took the old slot of No Surrender. In 2008, Turning Point, Final Resolution and Genesis were the latest PPVs to switch their times with Turning Point moving from December to November as of the 2008 edition, Final Resolution moving to December from January (thus giving the name true meaning as it will now be the final PPV of any calendar year), and Genesis switching from November to January (symbolizing it being the first PPV of any new calendar year). With this change, 2008 was the only year that TNA's PPV calendar began and ended with a PPV bearing exactly the same name (Final Resolution). In early January 2011, TNA announced that Victory Road and Destination X would be switching times, with Victory Road being moved up to March, and Destination X being postponed until July.
The first two weekly pay-per-views were held at the Von Braun Center in Huntsville, Alabama. The third, fourth and fifth events occurred at the Nashville Municipal Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee. Starting with the sixth, the events moved to their permanent home at the TNA Asylum in the Nashville Fairgrounds until the end of the weekly PPVs. Their current home is the TNA Impact! Zone (Soundstage 21 at Universal Studios Florida in Orlando, Florida)
In the United States, TNA pay-per-views are offered by In Demand, Dish Network and DirecTV. In Australia, TNA pay-per-views are shown on Main Event and iMPACT on Fox8. In the United Kingdom they were shown on Bravo 2 for free the Wednesday after the event On March 25, 2010, they moved to Extreme Sports Channel, with the first PPV aired on this channel Destination X, the following Friday after the event. When Bravo ceased operating on January 1, 2011, all TNA programming was pulled from air in the UK, including that on Extreme Sports Channel. On January 25, 2011, it was announced that from February 1, 2011, all TNA programming would air on Challenge, with PPVs the Wednesday after the event. They are also available in Canada and Germany.
