WWE SummerSlam 2026 is set to occur on July 30 and 31 at US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, marking the 39th annual edition of this major wrestling event. The two-night format continues to be a popular choice for WWE, allowing for a packed schedule of matches that fans eagerly anticipate. On the first night, CM Punk will defend his Undisputed WWE Championship against Cody Rhodes, while Oba Femi faces Brock Lesnar in a Hell in a Cell match, a stipulation that has historically favored Lesnar. The second night features Roman Reigns defending the World Heavyweight Championship against Seth Rollins, alongside other exciting matchups, including an interim women's championship ladder match. Notably, Rhea Ripley, the current WWE Women’s Champion, will not be defending her title due to a meniscus tear, leading to a competitive interim title match among several top female wrestlers. Fans can watch the event through the ESPN app in the US or on Netflix internationally, and it will also be available in select theaters through a partnership with Fandango. This year’s SummerSlam promises to deliver high-stakes drama and thrilling action, continuing WWE's tradition of captivating wrestling entertainment.
