WWE SummerSlam 2023 start time, match card, live stream, and how to watch

WWE SummerSlam takes place on Saturday, Aug. 5, live from Ford Field in Detroit, Mich. Here is the full match card and how you can watch the event.

On an annual basis, WWE has presented an event that they have dubbed “the biggest party of the summer.” Of course, we are talking about SummerSlam. Last year, the event took place at Nissan Stadium, home of the NFL’s Tennessee Titans. This year, SummerSlam heads for the Motor City, as they are taking over Ford Field, home of the Detroit Lions.

There are eight matches scheduled to take place on the show, including four title matches. The big main event for the show will feature Roman Reigns defending his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against his cousin Jey Uso. At Money in the Bank, Uso pinned Reigns in a tag team match also including Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa. This was the first time that Reigns had been pinned in a match since December 2019.

Other title matches on the card include Asuka defending the WWE Women’s Championship against Bianca Belair and Charlotte Flair, Intercontinental Champion Gunther facing Drew McIntyre, and World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins battling against Finn Balor.
