With SummerSlam rapidly approaching, WWE fans are eagerly anticipating what promises to be one of the biggest shows of 2024, second only to WrestleMania. Last year’s SummerSlam event set a record as WWE’s highest-grossing non-WrestleMania pay-per-view ever, and this year’s event at Cleveland Browns Stadium is on track to surpass that. With over 47,000 tickets already sold, an attendance of nearly 55,000 is expected, making it a potentially historic event.
So far, only two matches have been officially confirmed for SummerSlam, with Queen of the Ring winner Nia Jax challenging Bayley for the WWE Women’s Championship, and King of the Ring victor Gunther facing Damian Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship. Additionally, it is all but confirmed that Solo Sikoa will take on Cody Rhodes for the WWE title and Logan Paul will face LA Knight for the United States title. With these matches already set and more in the works, anticipation for the event continues to grow.
There are five marquee matches that WWE should add to the SummerSlam 2024 card to make it an unforgettable event. The Wyatt Sicks, led by Bo Dallas, have yet to compete in a match, and a showdown with Chad Gable could be a captivating addition to the card. Bron Breakker’s shocking loss to Sami Zayn at Money in the Bank has set the stage for a fierce battle for the Intercontinental Championship, possibly involving Ilja Dragunov. Randy Orton’s feud with The Bloodline’s Jacob Fatu presents an exciting opportunity for both stars to showcase their skills on a grand stage.
The feud between Liv Morgan and Rhea Ripley over the WWE Women’s World Championship has captured the attention of fans, and a match between these two talented competitors could headline SummerSlam. Meanwhile, the ongoing drama between CM Punk, Drew McIntyre, and Seth Rollins has created one of the most compelling storylines in wrestling. With Punk expected to be cleared to wrestle by SummerSlam, a triple threat match involving all three superstars could be a highlight of the event.
As WWE continues to build towards SummerSlam, the excitement and anticipation among fans are reaching new heights. With a mix of established stars and emerging talent, the potential matches on the SummerSlam card have the makings of a truly unforgettable event. As WWE strives to make this year’s SummerSlam even more successful than the last, fans can expect a night of high-stakes drama, intense rivalries, and unforgettable moments that will leave a lasting impact on the world of professional wrestling.
