WWE's second-biggest show of the year (arguably the biggest show this year, considering the circumstances), SummerSlam 2021, is slated to happen this weekend. The card is stacked with legends like John Cena, Goldberg, Edge, and Randy Orton on the bill.
And yet, most wrestling fans are excited about something else! CM Punk is likely to make his return to wrestling, arriving on AEW Rampage this Friday night.

Even though we've been told not to expect anything reactionary from WWE, we know that they will pull no punches, considering how stacked this weekend is! Even WrestleVotes, a very credible outlet for news, adds that 'time will tell' meaning that we can totally go wild with fantasy booking.
#5 WWE finally turns John Cena heel
Everyone expects Roman Reigns to defeat John Cena and keep the WWE Universal Championship on SmackDown. But imagine what would happen if John Cena wins the title, turns heel, and takes the Universal Championship all the way to Hollywood!
But before he does, he lets the WWE Universe know exactly how he feels about them, cutting a heel promo as only he can, in the twist of the century. Fans expect him to be a fan favorite even now, considering he's been showered with adulation since he's come back to wrestling. But what if he becomes the part-time Champion that Brock Lesnar used to be, bringing the WWE Universal Championship with him, only when he feels like it?
But then, who will be the man to dethrone him? It could be Big E who's carrying the Money in the Bank contract, awaiting his return to cash in. It could be Finn Balor who has a bone to pick with him considering that Cena cost him his biggest opportunity ever.
#4 Becky Lynch returns to WWE and confronts Charlotte Flair
Becky Lynch could return to WWE this summer, as reports indicate. She looks to be in ring shape and yes, she has indeed trolled us on more than one occasion regarding her comeback.
Imagine Charlotte Flair standing tall at the end of SummerSlam saying that there's nobody on the roster at her level. Becky Lynch's music hit and suddenly, the landscape of WWE RAW's women's division changes for good.
#3 Brock Lesnar returns at SummerSlam for a massive showdown with Bobby Lashley
Imagine Bobby Lashley steamrolling Goldberg and leaving him in a pile in the very center of the ring. The WWE Champion then celebrates with MVP when a familiar theme song plays, signaling the arrival of The Beast Incarnate.
Brock Lesnar vs. Bobby Lashley for the WWE Championship need not happen before Survivor Series, but the seeds could be sown this weekend. This is a contest that fans have wanted for a while, and the excitement of this dream encounter could certainly take away some of the CM Punk buzz.
#2 Could Adam Cole become the third Shield member?
WWE NXT Superstar Adam Cole's future has been a topic of conversation recently. We know that there's no way that Dean Ambrose is returning to WWE in the recent future! Could Cole become the third member of a new Shield?
Think about it. There was a Dean Ambrose reference on WWE SmackDown from John Cena (Seth Rollins addresses it in the Sportskeeda Wrestling exclusive linked above). Roman Reigns is a heel. Seth Rollins is also a heel.
A Shield reunion is certainly big news. It could certainly dilute some of the CM Punk hype!
#1 Could Finn Balor return to WWE SmackDown as the demon to destroy Roman Reigns?
Finn Balor wants retribution against The Bloodline. But defeating three men (four, if you count Paul Heyman) all by himself is not an easy feat for a mere man.
Enter The Demon. Could Finn Balor bring back his classic demonic persona, where he performs at a different level, which strikes fear into the heart and mind of his opponents? Imagine the roar of the crowd!
