WWE heads north of the border for SummerSlam this Sunday with a 10-match card full of tantilizing matchups. 

The show will be headlined by Brock Lesnar’s Universal Championship defense against Seth Rollins and WWE champ Kofi Kingston facing Randy Orton. Both women’s titles are also on the line, with Becky Lynch defending the Raw belt against Natalya and Ember Moon challenging Bayley for the SmackDown title. 

One of the most anticipated matches is a non-title bout, though. Fans are eager to see what a reimagined Bray Wyatt has in store for his first match since his return, facing Finn Balor. 

The scheduled match between Aleister Black and Sami Zayn won’t be taking place on the pay-per-view. Instead, they wrestled Tuesday night on SmackDown, reportedly because Vince McMahon had time to fill after rewriting the show’s script at the last minute. 

How to watch

Time: Pre-show starts at 6 p.m. ET, main show starts at 7 p.m. ET.

Location: Scotiabank Arena, Toronto

How long is the show? WWE Network’s online schedule has been unavailable since the app went through its major overhaul but you can bet on the 10-match card will last at least until 11:30 ET. 

Live stream: As always, you can only watch on the WWE Network. (New subscribers can get a 30-day free trial.)
