Impact Wrestling Returning To Nashville For Slammiversary

Impact Wrestling has its roots in the city of Nashville. The company made Music City their home during their earliest days under the Jarretts. Now, things are coming full circle for the promotion.

Fightful Select has reported that Impact will return to Nashville on June 19th and 20th. A set of TV tapings as well as their annual Slammiversary pay-per-view event are scheduled for the stop. Rumors had been swirling about a return to Nashville, but the news has now been confirmed.

Impact Wrestling will hold its Rebellion PPV at the Mid-Hudson Civic Center in Poughkeepsie, New York this weekend. The huge card includes several title matches as well as some international flavor. Moose will defend the Impact World Championship against Josh Alexander at the event. NJPW’s Tomohiro Ishii will face Jonah (the former Bronson Reed, and a three-way match between Mike Bailey, Ace Austin, and Trey Miguel will decide the X Division title.

Fans who watch Impact every week know it’s one of the best kept secrets in the business right now. The promotion boasts a deep roster and an excellent women’s division with plenty of big names. There is something for everyone on Impact.

Nashville will be gearing up to welcome home one of its native wrestling companies this June. The atmosphere should be electric, as many of Impacts fans from the TNA era will be enticed to give the company a second look. For now, Impact is focused on putting its best foot forward when Rebellion hits the air on Saturday night.
