WWE SummerSlam 2025 Night 1 Preview, Start Time And Streaming Info

WWE SummerSlam 2025, Night 1, advertised three title matches and three high-stakes tag team matches. It seems that WWE is trying to incorporate as many Superstars on SummerSlam as possible, because despite sticking to its five-to-six match formula, the multiple tag team matches means more bodies on the Premium Live Event.

WWE SummerSlam 2025 Preview And Predictions

Tiffany Stratton Vs. Jade Cargill

Tiffany Stratton vs Jade Cargill is a battle of promising WWE stars who are better off as babyfaces. Cargill has adapted to her role as a babyface since her return at Elimination Chamber, and is now one win away from winning her first world title in the promotion.

Tiffany Stratton got her biggest career win at WrestleMania 41 over Charlotte Flair, in a heated grudge match, and SummerSlam feels like the end of the road. “Smart” (read: Internet Wrestling) fans will be out in full force in New York, so it’ll be interesting to see where their loyalties lie as Stratton is very popular with that group.

Prediction: Jade Cargill def. Tiffany Stratton

Randy Orton and Jelly Roll vs. Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre

WWE has done a great job building up this celebrity tag team match, and Jelly Roll has been a natural as a humble, likable babyface looking to give Logan Paul his comeuppance. Orton defeated McIntyre in a singles match with Jelly Roll and Paul, respectively, at ringside. Jelly Roll has taken his wrestling training far more seriously than Travis Scott, and is a lock to overdeliver come SummerSlam.

Prediction: Randy Orton and Jelly Roll def. Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre

The Judgment Day vs. Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss

Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair have blossomed as frenemies on SmackDown. Their unofficial battlecry is “We’re Not Friends.” Bliss and Charlotte were reportedly scheduled to face off in singles action at SummerSlam, but after catching on with fans, they’re now in their second Tag Team Title match in the last two PLEs.

Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss are just getting started as a babyface tag team as well as a successful rehabilitation project for Charlotte.

Prediction: Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss def. The Judgment Day

Roman Reigns and Jey Uso vs. Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker

Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker absolutely destroyed Roman Reigns and Jey Uso on Raw. Both up-and-coming Paul Heyman guys go into SummerSlam with as much heat as they’ve ever had, not to mention Roman Reigns’ Jordans. In Reigns’ return match after just having been laid out by two rising stars, it’s impossible for me to believe Reigns and Uso won’t get their get-back at SummerSlam.

Prediction: Roman Reigns and Jey Uso def. Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker

Sami Zayn vs. Karrion Kross

The rise of Karrion Kross continues with Kross receiving his first singles match at SummerSlam. Last month, at WWE Night of Champions, marked Kross’ first singles PLE match since 2022. Karrion Kross, playing the role of Brian Pillman, is in a stipulation match against Zayn, where if Kross wins Sami must utter the words “Kross told the truth.” I expect this to be a chant throughout the match with a pro-Karrion crowd filled with smart fans. Even as a sizable underdog, Kross defeating Sami Zayn would be a feel-good moment at one of WWE’s biggest shows.

Prediction: Karrion Kross def. Sami Zayn

Gunther vs. CM Punk

CM Punk is pursuing his second world championship within a month, and this match could go either way. Gunther shockingly defeated Jey Uso to regain the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Gunther successfully defended his world title last month, retiring Goldberg, while Punk is coming off a Gauntlet win after coming up short to Cena.

Seth Rollins will likely be waiting in the wings to cash in his Money in the Bank contract after a dubious knee injury, which suggests CM Punk will be the world champion if and when that happens.

Prediction: CM Punk def. Gunther; Seth Rollins Cashes In
