WWE Summerslam 2025 has come and gone, and now the company is setting its sights on next year’s major event. Fans can expect plenty of thrilling matches and memorable moments to look forward to in August 2026.
While predicting details over the next year is challenging, one thing is certain: a fresh rivalry featuring a new star will headline the event at Minnesota’s US Bank Stadium. Here’s a look at the anticipated WWE Summerslam 2026 lineup:
WWE Women’s World Championship: Bianca Belair (c) vs. Naomi
Bianca Belair has been sidelined with a finger injury since WrestleMania 41, which kept her out of the Summerslam 2026 event. Meanwhile, Naomi has risen to prominence after winning the Money in the Bank contract to claim the WWE Women’s World Championship. Fans expect Bianca, known as “The EST of WWE,” to return stronger and potentially compete in the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble. Although a rematch with Naomi at WrestleMania 42 is possible, a showdown between the two at the big summer event seems likely.
Fan Take: This matchup symbolizes the exciting future of WWE’s women’s division, blending established talent with rising stars. It’s a storyline that could elevate the sport by showcasing fierce competition and memorable moments for fans to rally behind.
