Excitement Builds For The Known and Unknown Surrounding Slammiversary, the Pay-Per-View From IMPACT Wrestling, as the company presents the summer spectacular Slammiversary 2020 this Saturday, July 18, airing live on pay-per-view, at 8 p.m. ET (1 AM BST). All championships will be on the line in this annual showcase that is drawing as much anticipation for the high-energy in-ring action as the mystery of which newcomers or returning IMPACT stars will appear.

The wait is officially over this Saturday night. The Slammiversary 2020 action also features a main-event with three established IMPACT Wrestling stars – former World Champion Eddie Edwards, former X Division Champion Ace Austin and Trey of The Rascalz – along with a mystery competitor, vying for the coveted, vacant IMPACT World Championship in a 4-Way match. The Knockouts Championship is also on the line as Jordynne Grace faces IMPACT Wrestling newcomer “The Virtuosa” Deonna Purrazzo.
