WWE SummerSlam 2024 card: All confirmed matches as Logan Paul and Cody Rhodes star

One of WWE’s biggest events of the year is nearly here, as the professional wrestling company prepares to host SummerSlam in Cleveland.

Having first taken place in 1988, SummerSlam is one of the standout events on WWE’s calendar, a show that tends to feature its biggest stars and sometimes celebrity guests.

The pedigree of the event has guaranteed its place in stadiums in recent years, and 2024 is no different, as SummerSlam will take place at the home of the NFL’s Cleveland Browns.

Cody Rhodes and CM Punk are among the big-name WWE stars confirmed to be competing, while Roman Reigns could well feature – and don’t count out Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson...

Here’s all you need to know.

When is SummerSlam?

The event will take place on Saturday 3 August at Cleveland Browns Stadium – home to the city’s NFL team – in Ohio.

What other matches could take place? Will Roman Reigns and/or The Rock appear?

There is speculation that Roman Reigns, one of WWE’s top stars, could return during or after the main event between Cody Rhodes and Solo Sikoa. Reigns was last seen at WrestleMania 40 in April, losing his title to Rhodes, and the pair have been rivals for a couple of years now. Meanwhile, Sikoa is Reigns’s cousin and the pair have long been aligned.

However, in-storyline, Sikoa has taken over Reigns’s ‘Bloodline’ faction during the latter’s absence, and it is expected that Reigns could return in more of a ‘babyface’ (good guy) role, siding with Rhodes against the ‘heel’ (bad guy) Solo.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is not expected to feature, though he is involved in the main-event storyline. At WrestleMania, he teamed with his cousin Reigns to defeat Rhodes – the night before Rhodes beat Reigns one-on-one – and The Rock later vowed to return someday and settle a grudge with the new Undisputed WWE Champion.
