Comments

WWE announced that Summerslam will take place on August 21. And much like Wrestlemania 37 in April, SummerSlam will have a live audience attending the show. If you can't make it to Summerslam, don't worry, as there is a whole tour of live events you can attend around the US.

The mystery venue, described as a “summer destination location,” will be revealed on June 5 during NBC’s 2021 Belmont Stakes' pre-race show. Tickets to the event will go on sale June 18. Summerslam will stream live, exclusively on Peacock in the United States, and on WWE Network everywhere else.

It was announced last week that the company and its stars will take to the road again after over a year, starting in July with Money In the Bank weekend. The additional set of dates kicks off with Supershow on July 24 at the PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh and wraps up with Raw on September 6 at the American Airlines Arena in Miami. Check out the dates below.
