WWE SummerSlam 2024: How to Watch the "Biggest Party of the Summer"
Get ready for WWE SummerSlam, the "Biggest Party of the Summer", as the event returns for its 37th edition on Saturday, 3 August. This year's extravaganza takes place at the Cleveland Browns Stadium and promises a night of thrilling action and unpredictable drama.
A Night of Championship Showdowns
The SummerSlam card boasts seven blockbuster matches, with six of them vying for coveted championships. The spotlight is on the Undisputed WWE Championship showdown between the reigning champion Cody Rhodes and the formidable Solo Sikoa. This "Bloodline Rules" match, a stipulation added on SmackDown, is guaranteed to be a chaotic spectacle. Rhodes, having recently overcome the Bloodline's Tribal Chief Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40, will need all his strength and cunning to defend his title against the relentless Sikoa.
The Storyline of the Year
The highly anticipated match between Drew McIntyre and CM Punk promises to be a personal clash fuelled by years of animosity. Their feud ignited back in January at the Royal Rumble, where McIntyre injured Punk, adding a layer of bitterness to their rivalry. With Seth Rollins, a former champion who has his own history with both men, serving as the special guest referee, this match is sure to be a highlight, leaving fans on the edge of their seats.
Other Championship Battles
Other captivating clashes include Damian Priest defending his World Heavyweight Championship against Gunther, a match that will showcase two of the most dominant forces in WWE. Liv Morgan will defend her Women's World Championship against Rhea Ripley, whose signature entrance stomp has become a fan favourite.
