Slammiversary is the biggest event on the IMPACT Wrestling calendar. Scheduled to take place on July 17th, it is an event that has a lot of people talking following a recent promo video.
The video, which gives nothing away in terms of scheduled matches, was full of excitement generating teases for potentially huge names.
As seen below, the teaser is full of hidden cryptic references to various former WWE Superstars who would be free agents by 7/17.
Some of the hints include the Iconics and the Forgotten Sons. Both teams were recently released by WWE. The July date of Slammiversary would coincide nicely with the end of the obligatory 90-day release clause.
The video also teases the return of two previously successful IMPACT stars in Samoa Joe and NJPW’s Tetsuya Naito. With the recent exchange of talent including now ex-tag team champions FinJuice and the legendary Satoshi Kojima, this feels like a very likely possibility.
However, the name that has set the IMPACT fan base abuzz is that of Daniel Bryan. The man behind the yes movement let his WWE contract run out last month. No work has been given on where Bryan will head, or if it is all a work by WWE creative. However, eagle-eyed fans spotted the YES! sign in the Slammiversary video package.
Daniel Bryan is a huge name and would be an incredible draw for the Slammiversary event. Especially as IMPACT look to continue their brand after being a huge part of the Forbidden Door movement.
Even if just one or two of the teased names actually make an appearance, Impact could make some significant additions to their roster.
