One of WWE’s biggest wrestling events is airing this weekend. For the first time, WWE SummerSlam 2025 will air over two nights on Peacock and Netflix. Here’s what time to tune in, how to watch in the U.S. and internationally, and a look at the match card for the two nights of wrestling.
WWE SummerSlam 2025 officially kicks off on Saturday, August 1, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and continues with Night 2 on Sunday, August 3. The two-night format mirrors WrestleMania’s format, allowing for a larger card and more matches to take place.
The event will mark John Cena’s final SummerSlam ahead of his upcoming retirement. The WWE legend is set to face Cody Rhodes in a WrestleMania rematch, this time in a Street Fight. Cena previously defeated Rhodes back in April, while Rhodes earned his way back to the title picture by defeating Randy Orton to win the 2025 King of the Ring Tournament at WWE Night of Champions.
There will also be an epic showdown between World Heavyweight Champion Gunther and CM Punk. Gunther reclaimed the title from Jey Uso after losing it at WrestleMania in April. He’ll now be challenged by CM Punk, who has yet to capture a world title since his 2023 WWE return.
A WWE Women’s Championship is also on the line this weekend, with Tiffany Stratton set to defend her title against Queen of the Ring winner Jade Cargill. Additionally, a Triple Threat match for the Women’s World Championship will take place between Naomi, IYO SKY and Rhea Ripley.
