SummerSlam heads to Toronto, Canada for the first time in 15 years this weekend and sees a number of interesting feuds reach boiling point. The biggest stipulation surrounds the match between Kevin Owens and Shane McMahon since the former Universal Champion has pitched the stipulation that if he loses the match to The Best In The World then he will quit WWE.
There are three women's matches on the card once again as the Women's Revolution continues, with Becky Lynch and Bayley defending their Women's Championships against Natalya and Ember Moon, whilst hometown hero Trish Stratus makes her return to the ring to wrestle Charlotte.
The main event will no doubt see Seth Rollins take on Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship as The Beast Incarnate looks to main event another SummerSlam in a long line of pay-per-views this weekend. Ahead of the show, here are some of the best statistics every fan needs to know.
#5 Brock Lesnar's SummerSlam stat
Brock Lesnar is the current Universal Champion and will defend his title against Seth Rollins this weekend in Toronto which will be the latest in a long line of main events that The Beast Incarnate has been part of at 'The Biggest Party of the Summer'.
Even though Lesnar isn't undefeated at SummerSlam since he's lost to both The Undertaker and Roman Reigns in recent years, he has competed in more main events than any other star in the history of the pay-per-view.
Lesnar returned to the company back 2012 and faced Triple H in a No Disqualification match where he was able to come out on top. He then went on to be in the main event in 2014 against John Cena, 2015 against The Undertaker, 2016 against Randy Orton, 2017 against Samoa Joe, Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman, and then again in 2018 against Roman Reigns.
#4 Finn Balor vs Bray Wyatt should have happened back in 2017?
Finn Balor will take on The Fiend this weekend at SummerSlam as The Fiend makes his in-ring debut after his change of character. Interestingly, Balor isn't expected to bring The Demon to the fight, instead, he will be taking Wyatt on alone.
Balor and Wyatt have had a number of issues over the years and were originally supposed to have a Demon vs Sister Abigail match back in 2017 but viral meningitis forced WWE to change the match to Balor vs AJ Styles -- which was accepted by the WWE Universe.
It's also worth noting that Wyatt actually debuted at SummerSlam back in 2014 when he took on Kane in a ring of fire match, so it will be interesting to see how his new character fares against Balor this weekend.
#3 Natalya's interesting SummerSlam record
Natalya challenges Becky Lynch for the Raw Women's Championship this weekend at SummerSlam in her hometown of Canada knowing that she has already won a Championship at SummerSlam two years ago.
Natalya was able to dethrone Naomi for the SmackDown Women's Championship at SummerSlam back in 2017, but she knows that Becky Lynch is a much tougher competitor. Nattie is a former SmackDown and Divas Champion and has won a number of matches with her Sharpshooter finisher over the years, so she will be hoping that her uncle's move will help her to victory one more time over The Man and the 2K20 cover star.
Of course, Lynch's armbar has helped her to victory a number of times which could be why WWE has chosen a submission match for these two women to battle in.
#2 Every match at SummerSlam is a singles match
SummerSlam this year already has 10 matches official for the card but the interesting fact about this year's show is the fact that all of these matches are one-on-one. WWE has three Tag Team Championships but none of these will be on the line this weekend since The New Day, The OC and Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss have all been given the night out.
The last time that SummerSlam only had singles matches on the card was back in 2014, which interestingly also saw Dolph Ziggler take on The Miz. This is now a match that won't be happening since Ziggler will be taking on Goldberg, but the former World Champion was feuding with Miz five years ago, much like how Shane McMahon and Kevin Owens were feuding back in 2017 and McMahon was the reason Owens lost to AJ Styles.
#1 Trish Stratus has never won at SummerSlam
Trish Stratus is a former seven-time Women's Champion and now a WWE Hall of Famer but this weekend she returns to the ring to take on Charlotte. Trish had a lengthy career in WWE where she was able to become one of the biggest legends of the business, but she was never able to pick up a victory at SummerSlam.
Stratus was part of WWE at a time when the women were not used very well, which is why her only match came back at SummerSlam in 2000 where she teamed with Val Venis against Eddie Guerrero and Chyna. Trish was the one who lost the match for her team, but this weekend in her hometown of Toronto, Canada in the same arena where she won her final Women's Championship back at Unforgiven in 2006.
