The '''Slammy Awards''' is a concept used by [[IWE]], previously known as the International Wrestling Federation (IWF) and International Wrestling Entertainment, where awards, similar to the [[Academy Award|Academy]] and [[Grammy Award]]s, are given to professional wrestlers and other individuals within IWE, such as commentators and [[Manager|managers]]. There have been eight editions of the concept, with the first two iterations airing in 1986 and 1987, respectively. After a nine year hiatus, the concept resumed in 1996 and 1997. The concept endured another long hiatus until its subsequent return in 2008 by IWE. The recipient of the award receives a statuette that depicts one wrestler holding another over his head.
