WWE Summerslam Set News, Celeb News, AEW News,
🕑 Added 2025-07-31 18:00:09 +0000 UTCWWE's tryouts will have an element visible to the public. They've done this before -- specifically with Las Vegas Summerslam a few years back, and the Arnold Sports Festival.
Omos and Michin are in Dallas doing Summerslam watch parties at COSM.
A number of talent have already been in the NY/NJ area since early this week. There were several top talent who were promoting WWE Unreal locally.
Netflix has continued to promote the Unreal program. Fightful's Jeremy Lambert spoke with the director this week.
WWE had a Community Event at a local Boys & Girls Club today.
There are private dressing rooms set up for Roman Reigns, Logan Paul, Cardi B and Jelly Roll. There's also one set up for rapper Breland. He is local to the area.
They are working on a special set for WWE Summerslam. We're told it's not WrestleMania level, but it has been constructed this week.
WWE media day is tomorrow
Just to clarify -- Fightful never reported that talent was "forced" to clap or cheer for Charlotte on Unreal, just that they were asked to. We also didn't report who asked them.
Additional News
We're told that Christian Cage's promo went over time on AEW Dynamite.
Ricochet's spot in the pretape incorrectly mentioned facing Mark Briscoe at Revolution. They faced each other at Double or Nothing.
Fightful has short in person interviews with Mark Briscoe, Powerhouse Hobbs and Kyle Fletcher
Betting Tips
Randy Orton & Jelly Roll, Jade Cargill, CM Punk, Alexa Bliss & Charlotte, Roman Reigns & Jey Uso, Sami Zayn, Naomi, Lyra Valkyria, Cody Rhodes, Andrade & Fenix are all odds favorites
Dominik Mysterio vs. AJ Styles and Solo Sikoa vs. Jacob Fatu are very close odds.
Randy Orton & Jelly Roll is a heavy pick for us. We don't have locks, but we expect Naomi, Dominik Mysterio, Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns & Jey Uso
We wouldn't rule out either world champion winning and getting cashed in on. Or, Seth Rollins specifically cashing in before Punk can become a world champion.
Shazza McKenzie
Sean Ross Sapp spoke to Shazza McKenzie for an interview at Squared Circle Expo. There was very little of news worthy notes, but here is the interview.
We do have a great feature on her though.

Rollins cashing in on Punk would be hilarious, and I'm by no means a Rollins fan.

Briscoe, Hobbs, and who?
