One of the highlights of the WWE calendar, SummerSlam takes place at the Allegiant Stadium, home to the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders. While the battle between Cena, who returned to WWE last month following over a year out, and Reigns is likely to dominate the headlines, many of the brand’s biggest stars will also be in action on the night across both the male and female rosters. Bobby Lashley defends his WWE Championship against Goldberg following their recent feud, while the SmackDown Women’s Championship will be on the line when Bianca Belair faces Sasha Banks in a repeat of the duo’s encounter at WrestleMania in April. Edge and Seth Rollins, two of WWE’s most established performers, go head-to-head on the night and there will also be an intriguing battle for the RAW Women’s Championship when champion Nikki A.S.H. defends her title against Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair in a three-way collision. Sheamus takes on Damian Priest with the United States Championship on the line, and Drew McIntyre, Jinder Mahal, Jimmy and Jey Uso and Rey and Dominik Mysterio will also be in action. This year will be the first time SummerSlam has been held in an NFL stadium, although the 1992 event took place in Wembley Stadium in the UK and featured WWE legends such as The Ultimate Warrior, Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels.
