There are rumors that there could be something big going down at SummerSlam since the company is finally allowed back into an arena. WWE can't sell tickets to the show but they can push the Network and look for new subscribers as part of one of their biggest events of the year.

Vince McMahon could show up at SmackDown to make an announcement affecting SummerSlam. Potentially that could include both World Championships or it could be that the company will be holding a Battle Royal as part of Sunday's event. It could even be the returns of Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar as both men have been waiting in the wings for months.

Heard that throughout the weekend, WWE has things planned that are “different but pretty cool”. They are treating this ThunderDome as a restart of sorts. Expect a return or 2 along with some new storylines ideas.

Vince McMahon usually only returns to SmackDown or RAW when he has a huge announcement to make and he could be following this trend once again tonight.

If SummerSlam is being seen as a reset for the company after a few months of setbacks because of COVID-19 then what does this mean moving forward? And what will it mean for Payback and Clash of Champions in the coming weeks?
