-WWE and TNA are scheduled to be in Orlando on Dec. 20. WWE is holding a Smackdown and ECW house show at the Amway Arena, which hosted Monday's Raw. Meanwhile, TNA will be holding their Final Resolution pay-per-view the same night at Universal Studios.
Technically, the two companies are going head-to-head in the same city, but the big difference is that WWE will be selling tickets to a big arena while TNA will be letting fans attend their studio pay-per-view for free. That said, it would be wise of TNA to go above and beyond to promote their show given that te competition is in town and because the pay-per-view is being held only five days before Christmas.
