- Today is also IMPACT Slammiversary and many professional wrestlers are looking back at the 20 years of IMPACT Wrestling very fondly. Scott Fishman of TV Insider was able to catch up with some of the original names of TNA Wrestling to see how they feel about this Slammiversary.
“Not only did I have to prepare for an NWA title match, but all the other things leading up to the show,” Jarrett, who also hosts the My World with Jeff Jarrett podcast, said. “Besides AJ, those matches with Kurt Angle and that run were a personal highlight of my career. Making the decision of putting the X Division in the main event — I was told by just about everybody not to do it. Awesome Kong and Gail Kim main eventing an Impact show. For the time, it was enormously cutting edge. It was all very innovative, bold, and forward-thinking.”
“To know we had a hand in starting the Knockouts division and look at what it has turned into, knowing the company has supported us since 2007 along the way,” Gail Kim, a producer, said of particular highlights. “Impact never dropped the ball on the women’s division. We fought for this. You know how much begging, blood, sweat, and tears went into it. To look back on that now and work with the girls in the locker room now, that’s everything you could ever wish for.”
