The 2007 Slammiversary (sometimes stylized as SlammiVersary) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, which took place on June 17, 2007, at the Nashville Municipal Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee.[3] It was the third event under the Slammiversary chronology and marked the fifth anniversary of the promotion. Ten professional wrestling matches were featured on the event's card.

Prior to the main event, Jeff Jarrett held a shoot interview where he discussed the recent death of his wife Jill,[3] who died on May 23, 2007, of breast cancer.[4][5] Jarrett discussed how she influenced the company during the "early days" followed by saying he doesn't know when or where he'll wrestle again.[3] Jarrett then concluded by thanking the fans for their support on his and his wife's behalf.[3] The fans responded by chanting Jill's name as well as "Thank you Jeff".[3]
