WWE Rumor Review: Backstage heat on John Cena, Brock Lesnar's return, Plans for released star

#3 Location plans for WWE SummerSlam

One of the biggest talking points surrounding WWE's return to touring was the location status of SummerSlam. The August pay-per-view was being treated as the biggest show of the year, as its buildup coincided with crowds coming back.

Sean Ross Sapp reported on WWE's discussions about several cities and locations to host The Biggest Party of the Summer, with one of them leading the race. That city was Las Vegas. SummerSlam indeed took place in Sin City.

While there was a potential issue with the roof at the Allegiant Stadium not opening, SummerSlam went on without any fuss. In fact, WWE is returning to the stadium once again for Money in the Bank 2022, which indicates a good experience for the company at the home of the Las Vegas Raiders.

SummerSlam was a solid show, which featured some great matches like Seth Rollins vs. Edge and John Cena vs. Roman Reigns. Major stars made their WWE returns at the event, as Becky Lynch immediately won the SmackDown Women's Championship and Brock Lesnar confronted The Tribal Chief.
