Impact Wrestling issued the following press release to promote their Slammiversary event and virtual fan fest.
IMPACT Wrestling presents the summer spectacular SLAMMIVERSARY 2020 this Saturday, July 18, airing live on pay-per-view, at 8 p.m. ET. 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.
