Hockey legend Darren McCarty discusses his role on tonight’s IMPACT Slammiversary PPV

Darren McCarty is ready to keep order at tonight’s IMPACT Slammiversary pay-per-view.

The hockey legend, who played his prime with the Detroit Red Wings, spoke Fightful’s In The Weeds podcast promoting tonight’s event in Texas, where he will be the special enforcer for a tag team match featuring Scott D’Amore, Deaner and Bully Ray. McCarty begins by discussing why he got involved with Ray at IMPACT Sacrifice. The decision sent him bombing through the table.

Mind my own business. I’m not a wrestler. I don’t want to do it, but I do. I did not think [Bully] was man enough to let me in the ring. How many people can say they’ve had to knock Bully Ray upside the head a few times? I went through the table, but friction is racing, as they say in NASCAR. If you know anything about me, you get me, but I also get you. Bully Ray is like Claude Lemieux to me. When you’re on the ice or in the ring, don’t turn your back or you’ll be an idiot. I’ve been through a lot more tables and a lot less people.

He then explains what his job will be at tonight’s Slammiversary pay-per-view.

My job is to make sure everyone survives. There will be some beatings, probably some blood will be shed, some feelings will be hurt, but this is history. I got the best seat in the house.

The 2023 IMPACT Slammiversary pay-per-view takes place tonight from the St. Clair College Sportsplex in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. You can view the entire card here.
