WWE SummerSlam continues its storied legacy as a cornerstone WWE event. Cleveland Browns Stadium in Cleveland hosts the promotion’s third-longest running pay-per-view on Aug. 3 and the card is shaping up nicely.
Two matches have been known for a long time: the world heavyweight championship and WWE women’s championship matches. Gunther and Nia Jax won the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments, respectively, in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on May 25 to earn title shots for their brands’ championships at SummerSlam. World heavyweight champ Damian Priest and WWE women’s champ Bayley enter SummerSlam season as defending champions. The card is filling out with title defenses from Cody Rhodes, Liv Morgan and Logan Paul.
One of SummerSlam’s biggest matches has not been formally announced but heavily teased. CM Punk and Drew McIntyre are on a collision course after Punk cost McIntyre world titles on three separate occasions after being legitimately injured during an exchange with McIntyre at the Royal Rumble in January.
Take a look below at the confirmed matches for WWE SummerSlam and take a glance at the crystal ball of what may come. The event streams live on Peacock on Aug. 3 with the main card starting at 8 p.m. ET.
