The prestigious Slammy Awards are making their highly anticipated comeback to the WWE calendar. The company has announced that The 2025 Slammys: The Fans Choice Awards will stream live from WWE World at WrestleMania on Sunday, April 20, exclusively on WWE’s social media platforms.
Former WWE Champion Big E will co-host the ceremony alongside WWE broadcaster Cathy Kelley, bringing their unique chemistry and charisma to the fan-favorite event. Fans attending WrestleMania weekend in Las Vegas can witness the ceremony live at WWE World, while viewers at home can catch all the action via WWE’s social channels.
What makes this year’s Slammys special is the “Fans Choice” format, putting the power entirely in the hands of the WWE Universe. Voting is now open across twelve stacked categories celebrating the best WWE has offered over the past year.
The Female Superstar of the Year category includes Liv Morgan, Rhea Ripley, Bayley, and rising star Tiffany Stratton. Meanwhile, the Male Superstar of the Year ballot includes heavyweights like Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, Gunther, and the returning CM Punk.
Other notable categories include Most Memorable Entrance, with nominees ranging from Cody Rhodes’ WrestleMania spectacle to Jey Uso’s Raw Netflix debut with Travis Scott. The hotly contested Match of the Year category features the WrestleMania main event between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes, CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre’s Hell in a Cell battle, and nine other classic encounters.
For those who appreciate WWE’s lighter moments, the WTF Moment of the Year category includes R-Truth calling Triple H “Ciampa,” Chelsea Green’s dumpster dive, and Jacob Fatu’s unexpected “I Love You Solo” declaration.
The awards also recognize breakthrough talent with the Breakout Superstar of the Year category, which includes nominees like Bron Breakker, Tiffany Stratton, and new signee Giulia. Meanwhile, faction warfare is acknowledged, with groups like The OG Bloodline, The Judgment Day, and American Made vying for Faction of the Year honors.
This marks the first Slammys ceremony since its brief revival in 2020, continuing the tradition of the award show that has been part of WWE history since its original incarnation in 1986.
