SummerSlam set for Saturday, August 21 | WWE (https://www.wwe.com/shows/summerslam/article/summerslam-date-announced)

Here's the schedule. A surprising number of Supershows, which will likely be TV tapings based on the lack of shows on Monday/Friday those weeks. Summerslam does not have a location attached to it, but it is confirmed as taking place on SATURDAY August 21st. VERY surprising since that's the night of a big boxing match. The rumors have the show in Vegas (possibly in the football stadium) but that's not known yet.



Saturday, July 24: Supershow ? PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh
Sunday, July 25: Supershow ? KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, Ky.
Saturday, July 31: Supershow ? Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee
Sunday, August 1: Supershow ? Little Caesars Arena in Detroit
Monday, August 2: Raw ? Allstate Arena in Chicago
Friday, August 6: SmackDown ? Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla.
Saturday, August 7: Supershow ? Hertz Arena in Fort Myers, Fla.
Sunday, August 8: Supershow ? Stephen O?Connell Center in Gainesville, Fla.
Monday, August 9: Raw ? Amway Center in Orlando, Fla.
Friday, August 13: SmackDown ? BOK Center in Tulsa, Okla.
Saturday, August 14: Supershow ? Spectrum Center in Charlotte, N.C.
Sunday, August 15: Supershow ? Colonial Life Arena in Columbia, S.C.
Monday, August 16: Raw ? AT&T Center in San Antonio
Friday, August 20: SmackDown ? Phoenix Suns Arena in Phoenix
Saturday, August 21: SummerSlam
Sunday, August 22: Supershow ? Ball Arena in Denver
Monday, August 23: Raw ? Pechanga Arena in San Diego
Friday, August 27: SmackDown ? Simmons Bank Arena in North Little Rock, Ark.
Monday, August 30: Raw ? Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City
Friday, September 3: SmackDown ? VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Fla.
Monday, September 6: Raw ? American Airlines Arena in Miami



I'm surprised they aren't gonna be in New York (which is currently doing 100% capacity at arenas) or California (not sure if they're 100% capacity yet), but maybe they couldn't get clearance to run there when they were booking. Maybe they'll part of a fall tour.

I'm actually kind of intrigued by their holding Summerslam on a Saturday. I wonder what the motivation for that is.

The rumor is that Alliegant Stadium in Las Vegas (Where the Raiders play) said that's what they wanted.

However Manny Pacquiao is coming back to fight that day in Vegas. Don't know if that changes plans. If they're going to a football stadium you'd think they want to get tickets on sale ASAP.
