Fans from around the globe are gathering tonight at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, for one of WWE’s biggest events of 2025, SummerSlam Premium Live Event. As the second most important event on the WWE calendar, the match order for night one has been revealed by Pwinsiderelite. The show kicks off with a significant non-title bout—the first major WWE match since WrestleMania 41. The initial championship match features Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez defending the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship against challengers claiming alliances with Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss, despite tensions among them.
Midway through the night, a tense showdown between Sami Zayn and Karion Cross unfolds, where the stakes are personal: if Zayn loses, he has to admit Cross was right all along, but if Cross is defeated, he must acknowledge he was wrong. Following that, Tiffany Stratton defends the WWE Women’s Championship against Jade Cargill, the 2025 Queen of the Ring winner, marking the second title defense of the night.
The penultimate bout features Drew McIntyre, who has overcome passport issues to participate, teaming up with Logan Paul in a tag match against Randy Orton’s team, which includes Grammy-nominated artist Jerry Roll. The evening culminates in a WWE World Heavyweight Championship match with CM Punk aiming for his first top title in over a decade, challenging “The Ring General” Gunser. However, as with any live event, match order and outcomes might be subject to change.
Fan Take: This match lineup sets the stage for a thrilling SummerSlam with high stakes and personal rivalries that will keep WWE fans on the edge of their seats. The return of CM Punk and the inclusion of big-name crossovers like Logan Paul further elevate the excitement and could signal a new era of dynamic storytelling in WWE.
