Former TNA Boss To Appear At Slammiversary

One of the most well-known faces in TNA history is set for a remarkable appearance at the upcoming Slammiversary show, as IMPACT Wrestling celebrates 20 years.

With Slammiversary just around the corner, it has been confirmed that former TNA/IMPACT Wrestling owner Dixie Carter will make an appearance on the show as her former company celebrates two decades of existence.

Dixie Carter and her family were involved with TNA from an early stage with Carter’s family, through their Panda Energy company, taking control of the company after another major financial backer pulled out.

Carter later became an on-screen figure in the company, involved in various storylines, perhaps none more famous than when she became a villain and was ultimately put through a table by Bully Ray, bringing her reign of terror to an end.

In January 2017 Anthem Sports and Entertainment purchased an 85% stake in IMPACT Wrestling, after which Carter resigned her role as Chairperson, bringing her fourteen years in charge of the company to a close.

It was ESPN’s Marc Raimondi who took to social media to confirm that Carter will be in attendance for the special show:

“Former TNA president Dixie Carter will be making an appearance Sunday at Impact Wrestling’s Slammiversary pay-per-view event, sources close to the promotion told ESPN. Impact is celebrating its 20-year anniversary this weekend.”
