The WWE universe is buzzing with excitement as SummerSlam 2024 approaches, set to take place on August 3rd in Cleveland, Ohio. This year’s event promises to be an unforgettable experience, with the promotion moving to a two-night format starting in 2026. As the official poster features United States Champion Logan Paul, fans are eagerly anticipating what’s in store for the event. With Gunther and Nia Jax already earning championship matches, here are five early predictions for SummerSlam 2024.
Firstly, Logan Paul’s impressive reign as United States Champion could come to an end in his hometown of Cleveland. The 29-year-old might want to win over the crowd, and WWE might book him to lose the title to someone who cheats to win, leading to a potential babyface turn. Alternatively, Paul could retain his title and solidify his position as a top champion in the company.
Secondly, Nia Jax is on a roll after winning the Queen of the Ring tournament, earning her a WWE Women’s Championship match at SummerSlam. With Bayley currently holding the title, it’s uncertain if she will still be the champion come August 3rd. Jax has the potential to dethrone Bayley and become a two-time singles champion in WWE, adding another accolade to her illustrious career.
Thirdly, the situation surrounding The Bloodline is expected to reach a boiling point at SummerSlam. Solo Sikoa claimed to have spoken with Roman Reigns, stating he was appointed the leader of The Bloodline in Reigns’ absence. However, this could be a lie, leading to a massive issue when Reigns returns to WWE television. Roman Reigns might attempt to reunite with The Usos to take down Sikoa’s new version of The Bloodline, setting the stage for an explosive confrontation.
Fourthly, The Rock’s return to WWE could culminate in a massive match against Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at SummerSlam. After being dethroned by Rhodes at WrestleMania, The Rock vowed to come after him, and their rivalry could reach its climax at SummerSlam. This dream match has the potential to headline the event and leave fans on the edge of their seats.
Lastly, Gunther’s victory in the King of the Ring tournament has earned him a World Heavyweight Championship match at SummerSlam. After his dominant Intercontinental Championship reign came to an end, Gunther might seize the opportunity to capture his first world title in WWE at the premium live event. With Randy Orton still seeking revenge after their controversial match at King of the Ring, Gunther’s road to SummerSlam is set to be filled with obstacles.
As SummerSlam 2024 draws near, fans can expect an action-packed event filled with twists, turns, and potential title changes. With these early predictions, the stage is set for an unforgettable night of wrestling excitement in Cleveland, Ohio.
