Slamboree was a professional wrestling pay-per-view event from World Championship Wrestling held from 1993 through 2000 that was held in the month of May. It was originally billed "The Legends Reunion" because many retired legends from Jim Crockett Promotions would attend the PPV and other events scheduled for that weekend. The first three Slamboree's saw inductions into the WCW Hall of Fame during the PPV. They also included matches with the legends participating.
