2 weeks ago 0

SummerSlam stands as one of the most notable WWE premium live events, and again this year, it will span two nights starting on Saturday. Taking place at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, the home of the NFL’s Minnesota Vikings, the event begins at 6 p.m. ET on both Saturday and Sunday nights. Multiple championships will be contested over the weekend. Fans can catch all the action on ESPN Unlimited.

Nikki Bella, Brie Bella, and Paige vs. Jacy Jayne, Lainey Reid, and Fallon Henley

Old school meets new school in a six-woman tag team match.

The Bellas and Paige face off against the team of Reid, Jayne, and Henley, known as Fatal Influence. At Saturday Night’s Main Event, Reid and Henley seized the women’s tag team titles from Brie Bella and Paige. With Nikki Bella’s return, an intense grudge match is set for SummerSlam.

Prediction: Fatal Influence prevails over The Bellas and Paige.

LA Knight, Solo Sikoa, and Royce Keys vs. Jacob Fatu, Jey Uso, and Jimmy Uso

The Bloodline faces a formidable team in this six-man tag.

LA Knight, remaining a fan favorite, teams with Solo Sikoa and Royce Keys to take on The Bloodline. Recent attempts by Fatu and The Usos to bring Sikoa back into the family have failed. Sikoa remains firm in his stance against The Bloodline. Meanwhile, Knight continues his long-standing conflict with them, with Keys joining the fray.

Prediction: The Bloodline emerges victorious over Knight, Sikoa, and Keys.

Liv Morgan (c) vs. Iyo Sky for the Women’s World Championship

A title defense match for the Women’s World Championship.

Liv Morgan faces her first title defense against Iyo Sky, who won the tournament at Night of Champions, choosing Morgan as her target. Morgan, holding the championship since defeating Stephanie Vaquer at WrestleMania 42, may face challenges if she’s not fully prepared against Sky.

Prediction: Iyo Sky reclaims a top position in the women’s division.

Gunther vs. Nick Aldis

A highly anticipated showdown following a heated rivalry.

Nick Aldis returns to the ring after nearly three years, with Gunther as his opponent. Gunther’s accusations against Aldis of sidelining him led to their ongoing feud, climaxing at Night of Champions. Aldis is set to battle Gunther at SummerSlam, marking a crucial test for him.

Prediction: Gunther wins after a tough match.

Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar

A monumental Hell in a Cell bout awaits.

Oba Femi delays his King of the Ring opportunity to challenge Brock Lesnar in their trilogy fight inside a Hell in a Cell. Both competitors aim to outshine each other in this major weekend clash. Femi seeks to topple Lesnar, while Lesnar intends to prove his enduring strength.

Prediction: Femi advances into the world title picture after a win.

CM Punk (c) vs. Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship

A rivalry rekindled, with the undisputed championship at stake.

The intense rivalry between CM Punk and Cody Rhodes reignites at SummerSlam. Punk, who clinched the title from Sami Zayn, faces Rhodes after their hostilities turned physical recently. As they vie for the Undisputed WWE Championship, both wrestlers have a point to prove.

Prediction: Punk successfully defends the title.
