TNA Wrestling had a very successful Slammiversary weekend in New York. The show was their most attended event in North America and featured several great moments. However, the event didn't go as planned for the promotion, as now both their top titles are being held by NXT stars. It was announced that the DOA Santino Marella will address this on the upcoming NXT episode.

At Slammiversary, Jacy Jayne defeated Masha Slamovich to become the first woman ever to hold both the NXT Women's and TNA Knockouts Championship at the same time. In the main event of the show, Trick Williams successfully defended his TNA World Championship against Joe Hendry and Mike Santana in a Triple Threat Match.

After the show went off air, it was announced that Santino Marella would be making an appearance in the upcoming episode of NXT in Houston. He will address the current situation of NXT stars holding the top prizes of the Nashville-based company.
