Like every year, the whole WWE Universe and fans around the world are in anticipation of two cracking nights of Blockbuster WWE action. All the major Championships are set to be defended at SummerSlam along with some fierce rivalries in process.
Here are the predictions for the five main match ups for SummerSlam 2025
1. Roman Reigns and Jey Uso vs Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed
The 'OTC' Roman Reigns made a swashbuckling return to WWE after a hiatus of almost 4 months in the aid of his Bloodline brother Jey Uso against Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker.
That has resulted in a mouthwatering contest between the four superstars, being finalised for SummerSlam 2025. Last week on RAW, the duo of Uso and Roman were brutally beaten up by Breakker and Reed. While the team of Roman and Jey are definitely favourites with the kind of experience they have, not just as individuals but as a team, the newly formed team of Breakker and Reed are not pushovers.
Prediction: Win for Roman and Jey
2. Solo Sikoa vs Jacob Fatu(United States Championship)
Within a month's time, former Bloodline brothers, Jacob Fatu and Solo Sikoa became United States Champions, one after the other.
Now, both the burly Samoans are set to face each other in a dangerous Steel Cage match at SummerSlam to determine the US Champion. Earlier, Fatu was arrested on accusation of causing an accident to Solo and the MFT's. As it turned out, it was all staged by the current US Champion Solo.
Prediction: Solo Sikoa retains the US Title.
3. CM Punk vs Gunther (World Heavyweight Championship)
CM Punk defeated Bron Breakker, in a gauntlet match for the number one contendership for the World Heavyweight Championship.

Therefore, he is set to collide against the Champion Gunther at SummerSlam. The two superstars have been going at each other on the mic back and forth for the last few weeks and it has made this match up all the spicier spicy and worthy of watching.
Prediction: Gunther retains the World Title
4. Tiffany Stratton vs Jade Cargill (WWE Women's Championship)
The current WWE Women's Champion, Tiffany Stratton has defended her Championship against the likes of Charlotte Flair, Nia Jax and Trish Stratus, in the past few months. Now, she might be up for her biggest challenge as the Champion, against the powerhouse Jade Cargill. Will Jade win her first World Title in WWE at SummerSlam?
Prediction: Tiffany retains the Championship.
5. Iyo Sky vs Rhea Rhipley vs Naomi
Women's World Champion Iyo Sky is set to defend her Championship against former World champions Rhea Ripley and Naomi, in a fiery Triple Threat match at SummerSlam 2025. Sky has been able to successfully defend her World Championship in the last few months and would look to do the same in this mouthwatering contest.
Prediction: Sky retains the Championship.
6.
John Cena vs Cody Rhodes
(
Undisputed WWE Championship
)
The biggest and the most awaited contest for SummerSlam 2025 is the Undisputed WWE Championship match between John Cena and Cody Rhodes. In what would be the final SummerSlam event for the Champion John, he would look to defend his Title against Cody in a brutal 'Street Fight' match. Cody, who defeated Randy Orton in the final of the King of the King tournament to guarantee himself a World Championship match, is hellbent on becoming a two-time WWE World Champion and also making a statement against the arrogant Cena, for the world to see.
Prediction: Cody defeats John Cena.

CM Punk Weighs In On Dricus Du Plessis vs. Khamzat Chimaev: 'It'll Look Like...'

Last Updated: Punk discussed the middleweight clash between Dricus du Plessis and Khamzat Chimaev on August 16 in Chicago. Punk, a Chicago native, may attend with Belal Muhammed. WWE Superstar CM Punk recently weighed in on the much-anticipated middleweight clash between Dricus du Plessis and Khamzat Chimaev that is set to take place on August 16 at the United Centre in Chicago, Illinois, United States. The UFC returns to the Windy City after a six-year absence, and therefore it is natural of the Chicago-born Punk to have a vested interest in the event. Punk himself has fought for the promotion on two occasions. However, to call his performances lacklustre would be an understatement, as he got utterly dominated and battered by his opponents. Regardless, his celebrity status as one of the biggest names to cross-over, alongside Brock Lesnar, who enjoyed much greater success inside the octagon, is undisputed. He has also stated that he might even make an appearance at the pay-per-view. 'I'm very excited, I'm probably ultimately going to be very disappointed too because I don't know if I can go to the show, I've got to look at my calendar," Punk told Daniel Cormier and Chael Sonnen on the recent episode of their collaborative show, Good Guy/Bad Guy. Dissecting the fight, he remarked, 'That's going to be a wild main event, man. That's going to be (wild). It's so hard to bet against Chimaev, you know, especially after what he did to (Robert) Whittaker but I think Dricus is really really smart, probably smarter than a lot of people give him credit for. 'He knows what his game plan is going to be, he knows Chimaev is gonna come and try to dive on an ankle right out of the gate so I'm sure he's doing his preparation, that's what's going to make this so fascinating. 'I don't know if I see this making five rounds and if it does, we're probably gonna have two very tired fighters and it'll look like Derrick Lewis vs (Francis) Ngannou," Punk said. CM Punk With Belal Muhammed? Punk, continuing on the podcast stated that he might make his appearance, sharing the spotlight with the former UFC welterweight champion, Belal Muhammed. 'Brother, I'm so busy, like it's absolutely insane. I know we're in Europe for a big chunk of August but I don't think it's until the last week of August so I've got to double check. Hopefully I'll be there, I'm gonna sit next to my bud Belal," Punk added. view comments First Published: August 02, 2025, 10:09 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

John Cena announces grand return to the good side after shocking heel-turn, drinks beer with Cody Rhodes: ‘Mark you calendars, the champ is here'

With Summerslam right around the corner, WWE's most decorated champion is finally embracing his former self. John Cena took the stage in front of a packed-out Newark crowd, and no one expected to hear what he said over the next 12 minutes. The 17-time world champion took the mic and broke character, as he apologised for his actions since Elimination Chamber and admitted that he made a mistake. The segment left his opponent at Summerslam, Cody Rhodes, absolutely stunned, and the crowd that had been booing Cena for the past six months suddenly turned back to support their champion. Cena walked out in an olive green outfit, something that was a staple for him during the early days of his career. He still wore his trademark poker face, and before he could say his piece, Rhodes's entrance music hit, and he made his way into the ring. The millions watching at home expected another 'I am the greatest of all time, bow before me' segment from Cena, and they got that, but in a way they did not expect. When Rhodes attacked him and forced him to agree to the match at Summerslam, instead of cursing him out, Cena thanked him.

That was exactly the boot in the back that I needed. For 25 years, day in and day out, I have forged a reputation out of hard work, honesty, and respect. I now realise that five months ago I flushed it all down the toilet chasing false glory and some crazy idea to make shocking TV. It was shocking, but everyone on my team left. I want to take this championship with me when I am done, and I don't want to do that because I want to ruin wrestling. I want to do that so you guys (audience) don't forget me.' Cena continued to apologise to his fans, and as the segment went on, the tone of the superstar suddenly started changing. For the first time in five months, Cena wasn't sounding like he was talking down to someone; his voice strengthened, and he started addressing the crowd directly, just like in the old days. He said, 'All of you tried to tell me, but I didn't listen. You (Cody) forced me into a fight, something that is going to be brutal, something that is going to force me to dig down and be who I am. If I don't show up for war, I shouldn't show up at all. Mark your calendar for August 1, Newark, New Jersey, the day that John Cena came back to the WWE.' The crowd chanted Cena's name as he screamed out, 'The champ is here.' Cody then welcomed him back as Cena and Rhodes shared a beer and waved to the crowd.
