Powell’s POV: The street fight stipulation was added to the WWE Championship match, and the WWE Women’s Tag Team Title and the U.S. Championship matches were added on Smackdown. This will be the first two-night SummerSlam. Join me for my live review as the event streams at the early start time of 5CT/6ET on Peacock in the United States and on Netflix internationally. Jake Barnett and I will co-host same night audio reviews of both nights for Dot Net Members (including our Patreon patrons).
Gotta love the circus that is the fed. A match for the world wrestling entertainment womens championship, and a match for the womens world championship on the same card. Cody v old baldy in an All Elite lite street fight. The circus is most definitely coming to town.
