Latest Update On SummerSlam 2020 Location
July 31, 2020WWE may have no options for SummerSlam outside the PC.
For the last week or two, there has been a lot of talk about Vince McMahon wanting to no run SummerSlam from the Performance Center. Every year SummerSlam is supposed to be a big deal show and getting it out of the PC could make it feel as if it is bigger than what they have been doing.
Some of those rumors have been running SummerSlam on a beach or even on a cruise ship. Those are just rumors of ideas that may have been pitched in creative meetings. Earlier this week WrestleVotes reported that WWE wanted to try and find a venue in the northeast to run the event but was having trouble finding interest.
WWE has looked into hosting SummerSlam within the Northeast at an outdoor location w/ limited fans, and as of now, have found no interested states in allowing that to happen.
