As WWE continues to grow, the company has been doing more and more large stadium shows. It's not just for WrestleMania any longer, but for the past several years, SummerSlam as well, and even international PLEs, as Elimination Chamber was just held in Perth, Australia. One of WWE's big four shows will be held stateside, and while they haven't put out an announcement yet to make it official, after being rumored for months, the location for SummerSlam 2024 has been leaked. The news comes from WrestleVotes, an insider who has leaked many big wrestling stories over the years. On Twitter/X, WrestleVotes said:

SummerSlam 2024 has been rumored for Cleveland, as @SeanRossSapp hinted months ago. I’m told that through sources, WWE is close to finalizing a deal with Cleveland Browns Stadium to host the event on Saturday, Aug 3. Formal announcement should come in April.

Last October, Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful revealed that Cleveland was on the list for SummerSlam, saying, "Fightful Select has learned that Cleveland is a front runner to be the location of WWE Summerslam 2024." The story is no longer just a rumor, but gaining traction, as even Sports Illustrated has picked it up.

SummerSlam 2023 was held not too far from Cleveland, as it took place at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan. The show was headlined by Roman Reigns vs Jey Uso for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, and also had what will probably be the last match ever for the Beast Incarnate, Brock Lesnar, where he lost to Cody Rhodes in the third and deciding match of their feud, before raising the American Nightmare's hand.

What Will WWE Have In Store For SummerSlam 2024?

SummerSlam 2024 in Cleveland Browns Stadium, with 60,000 screaming fans, will surely be a sight to see, but what can we expect from the card itself? Surely Cleveland natives The Miz and Johnny Gargano will be involved. If Cody Rhodes manages to finish his story and defeat Roman Reigns at WrestleManis 40, expect to see him defending his WWE Championship. What will Roman Reigns' run in WWE look like without a title around his waist, and will The Rock be in attendance somehow?

Nothing is for sure, but with five months to go, the most likely main event feels like Drew McIntyre vs. CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship. McIntyre badly needs to beat Seth Rollins at WrestleMania, and with Drew constantly berating an injured CM Punk, look for the voice of the voiceless to be healed just in time for a huge showdown in August.
