Several new matches and a new participant have been announced, last night for Impact’s Wrestling promotion’s next pay-per-view, Slammiversary 2022. This is also the biggest PPV event in the promotion’s yearly calendar.
The first new match announced for Slammiversary 2022 is a Monster’s Ball match between Moose and Sami Callihan.
