Against All Odds Update, Angle/Borash, Karen Angle, Lots More
As of this weekend, TNA has sold between 1,500 and 2,000 tickets for tomorrow's Against All Odds pay-per-view at the BI-LO Center in Greenville, South Carolina. The building holds at least 11,000 people for wrestling. Due to sluggish ticket sales, TNA has begun papering the event, in other words, giving away tickets for free. They are even giving away the pricier ringside tickets that cost $150 as some of the Bi-Lo Center contacts have been offered them. Although, it seems like not too many of their contacts have taken up the offer as second row seating is still available for purchase at TicketMaster.com. Also, TicketMaster is apparently having a complimentary ticket offer for the show as one person was planning on buying tickets, but came away with three complimentary tickets and didn't pay a penny.
Kurt Angle and Jeremy Borash shot an episode of Criss Angel's "Mindfreaks" show for A & E last Saturday before all three headed to the UFC pay-per-view later that night.
