WWE Still Weighing Options For SummerSlam Kickoff Show Match

WWE stacked a loaded show for Allegiant Stadium, but they didn’t nail down any kickoff show matches yet. That is still a work in progress as the company figures out what they are going to do with the event.

This is not a decision that they are taking lightly, and it will take some planning. The company still hasn’t landed on a kickoff show match for SummerSlam despite the fact that the show starts in a matter of hours.

PW Insider reports that WWE will go over the possibilities during their morning production meeting. Hopefully, they land on a match, but the company already has two ideas featuring Baron Corbin.

They have a production meeting this AM and that’s one of the things that will be solidified. Last night at Smackdown, there was talk of Baron Corbin vs. Kevin Owens in a rematch from last night or perhaps Corbin vs. Big E. That could change depending on what Vince McMahon wants, however.

Baron Corbin’s new gimmick received quite a spotlight on the blue brand, and WWE is very happy with the results so far. He isn’t Mr. Money in the Bank by carrying that briefcase, but he is still clinging onto the guaranteed contract that is actually owned by Big E.
