A look at how to watch the WWE SummerSlam kickoff show before the main program begins.
WWE SummerSlam should be one of the top wrestling shows of the year. The top names of the company will face each other for titles or to gain an edge in a rivalry. They will get to compete in the four-hour spectacle.
However, before this begins, there will be a two-hour pre-show. This will see analysis from the panel of Renee Young, Booker T, Jerry Lawler, and Booker T. Two matches will be seen as well.
The first one set will see Sami Zayn and Neville face The Dudley Boyz. There has been some dissension between the nine-time WWE Tag Team Champions in recent weeks. Could this be the show that Bubba Ray turns on D-Von, potentially igniting the Bully Ray character from TNA?
Zayn’s presence in the match is also questionable. He’s coming off a Match of the Year candidate at Battleground, where he defeated Kevin Owens. The Likeable One doesn’t have a spot on the main SummerSlam card, though. With 10 matches set, is there a reason why he wasn’t included in any of them?
The other pre-show match will be a 12-man tag. American Alpha, The Hype Bros, and The Usos are facing The Vaudevillains, The Ascension, and Breezango. This is a rematch from the recent episode of SmackDown where AA, Hype Bros, and Usos won. Could there be a different result at SummerSlam?
