Follow along with our review of the 2017 WWE SummerSlam pay-per-view.

On Sunday night, the WWE SummerSlam pay-per-view will take place. It’s back at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY, keeping with the tradition of the past few years. This will have a two-hour Kickoff show and a four-hour main show.

SummerSlam’s main event will see Brock Lesnar defend the Universal Championship against Roman Reigns, Braun Strowman and Samoa Joe. If Lesnar loses, he and Paul Heyman will leave the WWE. It adds interesting stakes to the biggest match of the evening, so will this be Lesnar’s last appearance in the WWE?

Jinder Mahal and Shinsuke Nakamura will collide for the WWE Championship. It’s Nakamura’s first title match on the main roster, as he’ll look to end Mahal’s three-month reign that’s taken over SmackDown Live. Will this be the Modern-Day Maharaja’s last night as the champion?

In the Raw Tag Team Championship match, Cesaro and Sheamus will defend against Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins. It’s the first time Ambrose and Rollins have teamed up since the 2014 Payback PPV when they were part of The Shield. Will this result in tag team gold at SummerSlam?
