Knockouts Championship Match And Eddie Edwards vs. W. Morrissey Set For IMPACT Slammiversary 2021

Two more matches have been announced for IMPACT Slammiversary.

On the July 8 episode of IMPACT Wrestling, Deonna Purrazzo called herself the greatest Knockouts Champion ever and said that she could defeat any opponent without even knowing them. She proceeded to hold an open challenge, which was answered by Lady Frost. Purrazzo would emerge victoriously, but was approached by Gail Kim afterwards and told that she would be defending her title against a mystery opponent at Slammiversary on July 17. Gail said that she and Scott D’Amore will be picking the challenger and told Deonna to prepare for the fight of her life.

OKAY…. okay… I’ve consistently had to jump through hopes for IMPACT management…

But this is exactly what I’ve been asking for… new competition… any competitor, any company, any generation…

I’ll see you at #Slammiversary #IMPACTonAXSTV https://t.co/vKPjuyjXTv

Additionally, on July 1 W. Morrissey attacked Eddie Edwards backstage prior to his match with Kojima. Ewards took to Twitter ahead of tonight’s episode and challenged the big man to a match at Slammiversary. Morrissey came to the ring and accepted the challenge before defeating three men in a handicap match. He told Edwards to pay attention because he was going to demonstrate what he would do to him in one week’s time. 

Ok big man
