Triple H Addresses Possibility of WWE Having More Two-Night Premium Live Events

WWE is truly the global juggernaut of professional wrestling and its scale is not just limited to pro wrestling as the company has great relationships with the likes of the NFL, the NHL, the NBA and more. WWE Premium Live Events becoming two-night affairs are slowly becoming the norm and Triple H has now addressed the possibility of holding more two-night events in the future.

WWE SummerSlam 2024 took place at Cleveland Browns Stadium in Cleveland, Ohio, on August 3rd. While the date for SummerSlam 2025 hasn’t been announced, SummerSlam 2026 will feature a two-night format, and WWE has also revealed that Indianapolis will host a two-night SummerSlam in the future.

While speaking during the WWE SummerSlam Post-Show, Triple H was asked if WWE SummerSlam 2024 would be the last one-night edition of the event and if there were plans for more two-night premium live events. Triple H indicated that it’s too early to make definitive plans but acknowledged the potential for more two-night events in the future. He noted that with a seven-match card stretching nearly four hours at this year’s SummerSlam, there was still more content that could have been included, suggesting the need for more flexibility in event formats.

Triple H reflected on how the concept of two-night WrestleManias and SummerSlams would have seemed unlikely five years ago, but now it’s a reality. Triple H emphasized WWE’s goal of expanding its global reach, highlighting the importance of catering to its massive fanbase worldwide. He expressed excitement about the evolving nature of WWE events and the opportunity to bring WWE to more locations around the globe.

“Please let’s take it one step at a time [laughs]. Who knows what the future brings? But I do think that, even tonight, seeming this SummerSlam, seven-match card goes almost four hours, and yet there was a lot of stuff we could have put into this. Some people say, ‘Why wasn’t that in there?’ Because it would have been eight hours, right, and you still need stuff for Raw, you still need content for SmackDown. You still need all that stuff. As we continue to grow, we’ll take it step by step. So is this the last SummerSlam that you see that is one night? I think so. But we’ll see where that goes long-term. I’m excited about that opportunity. As far as other PLEs going that way, you can never just say this is what we do, and then that’s it, and that’s locked in, and that’s what we do.

If you go back five years, who would have thought we would have been doing two-night WrestleManias, let alone two-night WrestleManias and two-night SummerSlams. So we’ll see where it goes. That’s an important part of where we go with it, but an important part of where we go with that also is bro bringing these events around the globe. We are truly a global company. There is no place that WWE has not seen. There is no place where we don’t have a massive fanbase and following. We want to bring WWE to the world, not just been seen as a US-based company but that’s seen everywhere else. We want to literally be everywhere else and be as big as we possibly can be everywhere, so it’s always sort of a moving target. But it makes for a hell of an exciting ride, so I’m excited.”

WWE is always looking ahead to the future and the company’s plans for global expansion continue to grow with each and every year. Regardless, we will have to wait and see if the company will introduce more two-night Premium Live Events in the future.
