Powell’s POV: The U.S. Title match was made following a post-SmackDown angle in which Baron Corbin attacked Trick Williams. The final ladder match qualifier will be Lash Legend vs. Giulia. There’s still no word on the night one and night two lineups, other than Darius Rucker will perform the national anthem on Sunday (I won’t confirm nor deny that I am in negotiations to perform the anthem on Saturday). WrestleTix reported on Tuesday that 29,170 tickets have been distributed for night one, while 26,811 have been distributed for night two as of Monday. Join me for my live review of both nights of SummerSlam at 5CT/6ET. Jake Barnett and I will co-host same-night audio reviews each night for Dot Net Members (including our Patreon patrons).
