It took place on December 18, 2021, at Davis Arena in Louisville, Kentucky, the home base of Impact's developmental territory Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), whose talent was also featured on the card.

Background
The first Throwback Throwdown was a special episode of Impact that aired on November 26, 2019, and saw wrestlers portraying 1980's characters and gimmicks in the fictional Impact Provincial Wrestling Federation (IPWF).[1][2] On November 20, 2021, at Turning Point, Impact announced that Throwback Throwdown II would be held at Davis Arena in Louisville, Kentucky on December 18, 2021, as an Impact Plus Monthly Special.[3][4]
Storylines
The event featured several professional wrestling matches, and wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters.[5] Due to the nature of the event, the storylines for Throwback Throwdown II were self-contained and independent from the rest of Impact's programming.
