The first night of action will be held Saturday, August 1, at US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota and will be followed by another night of action on Sunday, August 2. This will be the second consecutive year that SummerSlam will be a two-night PLE. The second of the Big 4 PLEs (WrestleMania, SummerSlam, Survivor Series, Royal Rumble) followed in WrestleManias footsteps and will bring a jam-packed weekend of action with 12 matches currently announced between both nights.

Here is your card for what's going down on SATURDAY in Minnesota streaming LIVE on the @espn App at 6 ET/3PT. : @usbankstadium: https://t.co/vPBFgqG2uupic.twitter.com/sazScSTHiL WWE (@WWE) July 27, 2026Punk-Rhodes makes sense as the main event of the show. Night 1 could open with Femi-Lesnars Hell in a Cell match. The duo was the first match of Night 2 at WrestleMania 42, when Lesnar lost to Femi. Lesnar then took off his gloves after the match and appeared to retire. Morgan vs. Sky will have intrigue because the champion has held her belt for 100 days, and this will be her first televised title defense. Nick Aldis will make his in-ring WWE debut on Saturday night. Aldis spent eight years wrestling for TNA and then six years for NWA. When he joined WWE in 2023, he did so as the SmackDown General Manager. There have been plenty of teases that he would one day return to the ring, but now he has to do so against Gunther. Fatal Influence won the tag team championships at Saturday Nights Main Event, but with this being a six-woman tag match, the belts will not be on the line. SummerSlam Night 2 CardRoman Reigns (C) vs. Seth Rollins - World Heavyweight ChampionshipCharlotte Flair vs. Jade Cargill vs. Chelsea Green vs. Tiffany Stratton vs. Mystery Opponent - Interim WWE Womens Championship Ladder MatchFinn Blor vs. Sami Zayn - Undisputed WWE No. 1 Contenders MatchTrick Williams (C) vs. Baron Corbin - United States ChampionshipPenta (C) vs. Chad Gable - Intercontinental ChampionshipDanhausen vs. Dominik Mysterio - $100,000 on the lineIt doesn't get much bigger than this. Here is your card for what's going down on #SummerSlam SUNDAY in Minnesota streaming LIVE on the @espn App at 6 ET/3PT!: @usbankstadium: https://t.co/wytFYr90Oepic.twitter.com/Dic4UdmStm WWE (@WWE) July 27, 2026The womens ladder match has a lot of intrigue with who the mystery opponent could be. There is plenty of speculation that it could be a wrestler from outside WWE making their debut, or a surprise return. Regardless, the surprise entrant will duke it out with four other women for Rhea Ripleys vacated title. Zayn won the WWE Championship at Night of Champions, but held the belt for only nine days. He dropped it to CM Punk, setting up a storyline where he demanded that Adam Pearce put him into the Rhodes-Punk championship match at SummerSlam. Instead, he ended up with a No. 1 Contenders match against Finn Blor, who had won a Fatal-Four-Way match to get into the match against Zayn.Danhausen will take on Dominik Mysterio with $100,000 on the line. Liv Morgan previously attempted to bribe Danhausen with $100,000 in human monies to curse Oba Femi before his match with Mysterio, but Danhausen refused. He then stole the money from the Judgment Day and then cursed the faction. After weeks of back-and-forth, this match will be for the $100,000. Baron Corbin made his shocking return to the WWE and has his eyes set on Trick Williams U.S. title. It will be Corbins first match back with the company after he attacked Williams twice, setting up the bout. Penta and Gable have come full circle. It was a loss to Penta that pushed Gable down the path toward becoming El Grande Americano and developing a respect for lucha libre. Now, Gable (as himself) will take on Penta for the IC title in his hometown of Minneapolis.
