Everything you need to know ahead of the WWE SummerSlam pay-per-view this Saturday.
It’s time for one of the flagship events on the WWE calendar. Typically considered just behind WrestleMania in terms of popularity, SummerSlam is set to be the biggest match card of the summer months with five title matches on deck for Nashville on Saturday night.
The biggest match of all pits a pair of old rivals against each other once again. In the main event, Undisputed Universal Champion Roman Reigns puts his pair of titles on the line against Brock Lesnar in a Las Man Standing Match. Reigns unified the titles by beating Lesnar in the main event at WrestleMania.
The card also sees the return of the celebrity factor. Logan Paul is back when he takes on The Miz in singles action. The two teamed together to beat The Mysterios at WrestleMania before Miz turned on his partner.
Plus, SmackDown commentator and former NFL punter Pat McAfee returns to action when he takes on Happy Corbin. McAfee debuted in style at WrestleMania when he beat Theory in singles action before losing to Vince McMahon.
Let’s take a closer look at who our CBS Sports experts predict will come out on top at WWE SummerSlam, which begins Saturday at 8 p.m. ET from Nissan Stadium in Nashville and streams live on Peacock following a kickoff show one hour earlier.
