A new era officially begins for WWE and it starts with its SummerSlam pay-per-view/premium live event. An annual tradition, the event this year takes place July 30 from inside Nashville’s Nissan Stadium.
The main event will see Brock Lesnar challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title. Dubbed “the last match ever” between the two, Reigns and Lesnar will compete in a last-man-standing match. With Vince McMahon’s retirement, how will WWE book this match? Who will walk out of Nashville as champion?
Also on the card will be The Usos, Reigns’ cousins. They will defend the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Titles against The Street Profits. Jeff Jarrett will be the guest referee.
