WWE SummerSlam 2024, one of WWE’s biggest events of the year, ought to be a stacked show on paper. It is now looking like a must-see show with lots of gold up for grabs and the possibility that some of them will change hands.
Championship shots for the event were automatically granted to Gunther and Nia Jax upon their respective victories in the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments at the end of May. Thus, the first official matchups were Damian Priest vs. Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship and Bayley vs. Nia Jax for the WWE Women’s Championship.
Although the rest of the card wasn’t nearly as obvious, it has recently come together on SmackDown and Raw to a very high standard. More match announcements are anticipated soon, as we approach what WWE usually bills as the largest celebration of the summer—two weeks away.
Not only should SummerSlam have big-name matchups, but it should also be the conclusion of multiple plotlines. This entails launching intriguing, fresh perspectives that continue into autumn and pique viewers’ interest on what comes next.
Here is the anticipated lineup and preliminary projections for each outing before the event on August 3.
