Slammy Awards logo
Country	United States
Presented by	WWE Academy of Wrestling Arts and Sciences (kayfabe)[1]
First awarded	March 1, 1986; 36 years ago (1986-03-01)

The Slammy Awards is a concept used by WWE, where awards, similar to the Academy and Grammy Awards, are given to professional wrestlers and other individuals within WWE, such as commentators and managers.^[2] Introduced in 1986, there have been 13 editions of the concept. The awards are a mixture of "serious" and "tongue-in-cheek".^[3] Winners of the award receive a statuette that depicts one wrestler holding another over his head.^[1]

The awards were discontinued after 2015. The same year, the NXT brand debuted its own exclusive awards, the NXT Year-End Awards (also rewarding the NXT UK brand since 2019), with wrestlers from Raw and SmackDown being instead rewarded by the WWE Year-End Award in 2018 and 2019.^[4][5]

In 2020, it was announced that WWE would be reviving the Slammy Awards for their Raw and SmackDown brands, with the winners announced live on the WWE Network.^[6] The ceremony aired on December 23, 2020.

Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker holds the record for the most Slammy Awards won by a WWE superstar at fifteen each.
