Many different rumors regarding SummerSlam going today.

The next major pay-per-view for WWE is SummerSlam and the talk has been for a little while now that they will run in Las Vegas, Nevada. Yet today a number of new rumors and reports came out regarding SummerSlam.

First off Andrew Zarian of the Mat Men Podcast reported that SummerSlam will be in Allegiant Stadium in las Vegas. Then he tweeted that SummerSlam will not be on the day we think.

Zarian would then go on to state that WWE is looking to run SummerSlam on Saturday this year. Saturday, August 21st which is the same day as the Manny Pacquiao/Errol Spence Jr fight also in Las Vegas.

Then WrestleVotes reported that the August 21st date is a “provisional” date that WWE has on hold. Apparently, WWE has a few dates on hold for SummerSlam.

Finally we got an odd report from the Sports Business Journal stating that WWE is looking a multiple NFL stadiums in the US to run SummerSlam, not just Las Vegas.

WWE is considering six NFL stadiums to host Summer Slam, according to a source with knowledge of WWE’s thinking, the first time that the organization’s second biggest event will be held at an NFL venue. The venues under consideration are Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif., NRG Stadium in Houston, Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, MetLife Stadium in N.Y. and Nissan Stadium in Nashville.

The last one from Sports Business Journal is odd as it contradicts multiple different sources and reports over the last week very confident that WWE will run in Las Vegas.

if we do hear anything else regarding the date and location for SummerSlam, we will have it here and on the PWUnlimited YouTube Channel.
