Background
Slammiversary is a professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by Impact Wrestling to celebrate the anniversary of Impact's first event, which was held on June 19, 2002. As such, the event is usually held in the summer (July, specifically since 2017). The first event took place nearly a year after that event on June 18, 2003, and has since been considered one of Impact's "Big Four" PPV events, along with – since 2020 – Hard To Kill, Rebellion, and Bound for Glory.[1]
On March 24, 2023, at Sacrifice, it was announced by Impact Wrestling that Slammiversary would take place on July 15, 2023, at St. Clair College in Windsor, Ontario, Canada.[2][3]
Storylines
The event will feature several professional wrestling matches, which involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots, and storylines. Wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. Storylines are produced on Impact's weekly television program.[4]
