You can find my full review of the PPV here.
For collectors of PPV DVD’s, this one is important, since it records TNA’s 7th Anniversary. With two King of the Mountain bouts, it’s also a good way to get acquainted with one of TNA’ s signature matches. For the average fan looking to find out more about TNA, or get a sampling of TNA’s best matches, however, I’d recommend that you buy a compilation dvd like Jeff Jarrett: King of the Mountain, or Second 2 None: World’s Toughest Tag Teams instead.
