According to Marc Riamondi of ESPN, Former TNA President and owner Dixie Carter will make her return to the company for an appearance at this Sunday’s IMPACT Slammiversary pay-per-view in Nashville, TN.
Carter’s return is part of IMPACT Wrestling’s 20 year celebration, as June 19, 2002 marked the first ever NWA-TNA show that debuted on PPV, and emanated from the Von Braun Civic Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
Carter was the president of then-TNA Wrestling from 2003 through 2016, before selling her majority share to Anthem Sports & Entertainment. After the sale, Anthem then renamed the company to IMPACT Wrestling in 2017. Carter would then eventually sell her minority stake. She served as an on-screen personality, and as an authority figure beginning in 2010.
