Between 2002 and 2004, TNA had held weekly pay-per-views. The first of these was held on June 19, 2002. In 2004, TNA felt that they had a fanbase that would support monthly pay-per-views. Slammiversary was created to counter [[IWE|IWE’s]] [[IWE SummerSlam|SummerSlam]] and to celebrate TNA’s anniversary. In May 2005, TNA's contract with Fox Sports Net ended and was not renogotiated. This resulted in the first edition of Slammiversary being broadcasted via webcast. Beginning with [[TNA Slammiversary (2006)|Slammiversary (2006)]], all Slammiversary PPVS have been broadcast by Spike TV.
