Impact Wrestling (2019; 2021–present)
Slamovich made her first appearance on Impact Wrestling during the June 14, 2019, episode of Impact! where she lost to Havok.[2] She also appeared on the June 29th episode of Xplosion where she was defeated by Jordynne Grace.[3] Slamovich made her return to Impact on the October 9, 2021, Knockouts Knockdown event, which was taped on September 17th, where she unsuccessfully challenged Deonna Purrazzo, who was the AAA Reina de Reinas Champion and Impact Knockouts World Champion at the time, in a non-titles match.[4] After impressing Impact's officials, Hall of Famer Gail Kim came out after the match in an unaired segment and offered Slamovich a contract with Impact.[5][6]
Throughout the first half of 2022, Slamovich went on an undefeated streak as she defeated various local talent and contracted Knockouts such as Alisha and Havok in matter of seconds.[7][8] On the September 1 episode of Impact!, at the main event, Slamovich defeated Purrazzo to become the No. 1 contender for the Impact Knockouts World Championship, which was held by Jordynne Grace.[9] Slamovich challenged Grace for the title on October 7 at Bound for Glory, but was unsuccessful, thus ending her winning streak.[10]
