Summer’s Biggest Party is now mere hours away.
With the conclusion of the July 31 SmackDown, all eyes have now turned to SummerSlam. The 2026 edition will air as a two-night spectacle on Saturday, August 1, and Sunday, August 2, 2026, at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
First up will be SummerSlam‘s Night 1 on Saturday, featuring two World title clashes as CM Punk defends the Undisputed title against Cody Rhodes, while Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan battles the winner of the Queen of the Ring tournament, Iyo Sky.
Meanwhile, the trilogy bout between Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi is also slated for Night 1, and so is Nick Aldis’ WWE in-ring debut against Gunther.
On the other hand, Night 2 features the showdown between former Shield brothers Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, while multiple stars battle in a ladder match to become the Interim WWE Women’s Champion in Rhea Ripley’s absence. The rest of the card for both nights is down below.
Night 1 has slightly better numbers than Night 2 of WWE SummerSlam
According to WrestleTix‘s latest figures, 34,897 tickets had been distributed for Saturday’s (Night 1) event, while 33,763 had been distributed for Sunday’s (Night 2) show. Those totals are expected to increase over the next 24 hours as the show inches closer.
However, a significant rise in the numbers could indicate a large batch of tickets being released or distributed ahead of the event.
Notably, during SmackDown, WWE promoted tickets still being available with a promo code, highlighting the struggle in selling tickets compared to last year’s SummerSlam at MetLife Stadium. Much of the discussion around poor ticket sales has been linked with poor creative choices and high ticket prices.
WWE only revealed the lineup for both nights on Monday before the go-home show of Raw, and up until now has not confirmed the main event for both nights. Although CM Punk vs Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns vs Seth Rollins are largely expected to headline both nights, respectively.
