How to watch WWE Summerslam 2025: Live stream and match card for night two
WWE Summerslam night one is in the books and now attention shifts to night two as the John Cena retirement tour continues. On what will be his final Summerslam appearance, Cena faces the person he dethroned at WrestleMania 41 to become a record-breaking 17-time WWE Champion, Cody Rhodes. Only this time the stakes have been raised as Cena puts the Undisputed WWE championship on the line in a street fight. This means the pair can battle inside and out of the MetLife Stadium because this match has no disqualifications, falls count anywhere and weapons are legal. There's an argument to be made that Rhodes, to date, poses the biggest threat to Cena's title reign but the 'American Nightmare' will no doubt have to pull out all the stops to avenge his loss from less than four months ago. In addition, there are five other championship matches to whet the appetite tonight. All of which have the potential to steal the show - and quite possibly the entire weekend. The WWE United States title will be defended in a steel cage as new champion Solo Sikoa faces Jacob Fatu in a rematch from WWE Night of Champions. The odds are not in Naomi's favour as she defends her newly won Women's world championship in a triple threat match against Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY. It's the last chance saloon for Lyra Valkyria because if she fails to beat Becky Lynch for the WWE Women's Intercontinental championship in a no DQ and no count-out match, she can never challenge for the title as long as Lynch is champion. Elsewhere on the card, The Wyatt Sicks defend the WWE tag team championships in a six-pack tables, ladders, and chairs (TLC) match, while AJ Styles looks to capture the WWE Intercontinental championship from Dominik Mysterio. Another huge night of wrestling awaits and here's everything you need to know about where to watch Summerslam night two unfold... How to watch WWE Summerslam 2025 night two Live stream: In the UK, night two of WWE Summerslam 2025 can be watched and streamed live on Netflix. Coverage starts at 11pm BST tonight, Sunday, August 3, 2025. A membership costs £4.99 a month and the subscription can be cancelled at any time.

Shannon Sharpe Delivered The Perfect Moment At Saturday's Hall Of Fame Ceremony
Shannon Sharpe Delivered The Perfect Moment At Saturday's Hall Of Fame Ceremony originally appeared on The Spun. It had been a long time coming for Shannon Sharpe and his brother, Sterling. But at long last, they are now the first set of brothers to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Shannon got his moment back in 2011 following a 14-year career between the Broncos and Ravens that included eight Pro Bowls, four first-team All-Pro selections, and three Super Bowl championships. And this weekend, he joined his big brother in finally getting his moment by giving him a massive hug and helping him put on his long-awaited gold jacket. Fans were loving it on X. "Despite everything going on it was so touching to see the brothers be able to bask in the moment," Kelsey Nicole Nelson said. "Love the history they made together but solidifying a place in football history." "🗣️ Huge congrats 👏🏻 To hear their humble beginnings, their HARDWORK& dedication 2 the game. It's truly great 2 see them mk history as the FIRST brothers to get inducted," a user replied. "We ALL know how much Unc ❤️'S his big brother and 2 live 2 see the day to honor him w/his flowers is beautiful." "I think the Watt Brothers will be joining them in about 10 years," another predicted. "I'm clearly a sucker for a good big brother-little brother moment. Happy for both," a fan commented. "what a moment. proud of those brothers. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼" another person applauded. "I don't care what anyone says; this is awesome to see," another user posted. "First set of brothers in the HoF. A biopic about their lives/journey all the way up to this moment should be made into a movie." Sterling himself delivered a beautiful speech where he spent much of his 12 minutes on-stage honoring his brother. "The only reason I'm standing here, the only reason I told all those stories, everything I did athletically, everything I did for an audience of one," Sharpe explained. "... You see when you grow up in rural south Georgia, it's hard to find heroes, and I didn't want this person of mine to look outside our own dinner table to find a role model." "It's so wonderful to be able to experience love and appreciation from my family," he said. "This is why I played football. This is why I got out of bed. It wasn't work. It was because of this right here [my brother]."Shannon Sharpe Delivered The Perfect Moment At Saturday's Hall Of Fame Ceremony first appeared on The Spun on Aug 2, 2025 This story was originally reported by The Spun on Aug 2, 2025, where it first appeared.
