Match Card for WWE Summer Slam 2021

  1. WWE Universal Championship:  Roman Reigns (c) vs John Cena
  2. WWE Championship:  Bobby Lashley (c) vs Goldberg
  3. WWE Raw Women’s Championship:  Nikki Cross (c) vs Rhea Ripley vs Charlotte Flair
  4. WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship:  Bianca Belair (c) vs Sasha Banks
  5. WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championships:  The Uso’s (c) vs Rey/Dominik Mysterio
  6. WWE United States Championship:  Sheamus (c) vs Damian Priest

What to expect?

One thing we know for sure with WWE is that you expect the unexpected with them. Nobody can really predict what will go down when the bell rings and that is probably the thrill of it.

This year too, many championships will be on the line when WWE steps inside Allegiant Stadium, and more than a few of them could find new homes around the waists of other Superstars.

SummerSlam needs marquee matchups, but these are few and far between, especially on Raw. So Raw will continue to take a backseat to SmackDown, which is better creatively and boasts the biggest star in the industry in Roman Reigns.
