It’s time for WWE SummerSlam!
Billed as WWE’s “Biggest Party of the Summer,” the premium live event keeps growing year after year.
Now in its 37th edition, SummerSlam 2024 will take place on Saturday night at Cleveland Browns Stadium.
The SummerSlam card consists of seven major matches, six of which involve championships. The only non-title match features WWE’s storyline of the year between Drew McIntyre and CM Punk. Their feud has intensified since CM Punk was injured at the Royal Rumble in January by McIntyre. With former champion Seth Rollins serving as the special guest referee, this match has become the most anticipated due to its unpredictable nature and buildup.
The Undisputed WWE Championship match between champion Cody Rhodes and challenger Solo Sikoa is expected to be chaotic, following the addition of a Bloodline Rules stipulation on Smackdown. Just four months ago at WrestleMania 40, Rhodes faced a Bloodline member in a similar match, ultimately defeating Bloodline Tribal Chief Roman Reigns to secure his first WWE championship.
