Early WWE SummerSlam 2025 match card prediction; John Cena vs Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns vs Seth Rollins & more

WWE SummerSlam this year will be a historic Premium Live Event

WWE SummerSlam 2025 will go down in the history books of the global juggernaut. For the first time in its history, the show will be a two-night extravaganza at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on August 2nd and 3rd.

The WWE landscape has witnessed major altercations between top stars, with many expected to compete at the show this summer. Here is a look at the early WWE SummerSlam match card for this year:

10. Liv Morgan vs Alexa Bliss

Since her WWE return after two years, Alexa Bliss has been having major altercations with Liv Morgan. These happened at the Royal Rumble and Elimination Chamber PLE, which got a huge pop. Bliss could shift back to RAW before SummerSlam and begin a feud with Morgan, becoming a marquee match for the show.

9. Dominik Mysterio vs Finn Balor

Dominik Mysterio and Finn Balor have been seen in heated scenarios since WrestleMania 41. Tensions could explode near the buildup of SummerSlam this year, with both men becoming mortal enemies. This could see Mysterio put up his IC title against Balor in a top match of the SummerSlam card.

8. Jade Cargill vs Bianca Belair

WWE Universe expected Bianca Belair to be revealed as Jade Cargill’s attacker and a potential feud at WrestleMania 41. However, they went a different route, but could explore this storyline for the summer.

A match between the former Women’s Tag Team Champions could be a great addition for the SummerSlam card and captivate the audience like no other.

7. Randy Orton vs Bron Breakker

Bron Breakker is now a Paul Heyman Guy, and he could guide him to go after a legend to elevate his status as a top star.

Breakker’s target could be none other than the Legend Killer, Randy Orton. The Viper is still in the prime of his career and can pose a serious threat to the dominance of the Wolf Dog at SummerSlam.

6. New Day vs MCMG

The New Day has transformed into an evil tag team with the WWE World Tag Team titles in their grasp now. They could face an interesting challenge from an unlikely team, who could come from SmackDown, the Motor City Machine Guns. This first-ever bout between the two decorated teams could be a spectacular match for SummerSlam this year.

5. Goldberg vs Gunther

Goldberg is set to have his retirement match in WWE this year. Following an altercation with Gunther last year at the Bad Blood PLE and major rumors, it could take place at this year’s historic SummerSlam PLE and become a hard-hitting affair to witness.

4. Tiffany Stratton vs Becky Lynch

Tiffany Stratton won a big match at WrestleMania 41 by defeating Charlotte Flair. She could put down another Horsewoman at WWE’s next Big 4 event, SummerSlam, by competing against Becky Lynch. The Man can make a switch to SmackDown and pose a big challenge to the rise of Tiffy Time at SummerSlam.

3. CM Punk vs Jey Uso

One of CM Punk‘s goals since returning to WWE has been to become World Champion again. His ambitions could lead him to challenge Jey Uso in a first-time ever singles bout. The YEET man could have a marquee match with Punk, and it could become a huge attraction for the two-night spectacle this summer.

2. Roman Reigns vs Seth Rollins

The WWE Universe has seen the tensions between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins reignited since 2025 began. Moreover, Rollins has now stolen Reigns’ Wiseman and Paul Heyman, and made him his trusted manager.

The issues are expected to continue to be prevalent until the buildup of SummerSlam and lead to Reigns and Rollins colliding at the historic event, which is a marquee match for any WWE show.

1. John Cena vs Cody Rhodes

Cody Rhodes has been absent from WWE television since losing to John Cena at WrestleMania 41. The American Nightmare could resurface before SummerSlam to challenge Cena to regain his throne. This could set the stage for a big rematch at SummerSlam this year with Rhodes on a mission to dethrone Cena and regain his WWE title.
