WWE's SummerSlam is being built up as the biggest show that WWE will put on this year, with reports stating that the company wants their summer party to be even bigger than WrestleMania now that crowds are back.

This means that there will be some massive matches on the card, and if rumors are to be believed and we do get Roman Reigns vs John Cena and Bobby Lashley vs Goldberg then that'll definitely be a start.

But, there are many WWE Superstars on the roster who haven't made an appearance for this specific pay-per-view before and definitely deserve to make their SummerSlam debut this year.

Let's take a look at 5 WWE Superstars who deserve to wrestle at their first SummerSlam.


#5. Liv Morgan should get a singles match at SummerSlam

If Nikki A.S.H didn't win the Money in the Bank ladder match then I think most people would've been happy if it was Liv Morgan instead. That's because the SmackDown star has been doing great work for the blue brand now that she's on her own.

Her storyline where she was trying to get into the Money in the Bank ladder match, but Sonya Deville kept putting other people in the match instead, was really good, even if it did end rather anticlimatically thanks to Bayley's injury reshuffling things.

I'm hoping WWE can continue Liv Morgan's singles push and eventually get her to a position where she's able to compete at SummerSlam and really have a starmaking performance.

#4. Mustafa Ali would be great on SummerSlam

Mustafa Ali is a special wrestler who would kill it at SummerSlam. He seemingly has it all, fantastic in-ring ability, great on the mic and able to shoot his own captivated promos by himself and a great work ethic. But apart from making Ali the leader of failed stable RETRIBUTION, WWE has largely done him a disservice on the main roster.

There was a time leading up to Elimination Chamber 2019 where Ali looked like he was on a meteoric rise, but he was sadly injured and had to be replaced. His replacement, Kofi Kingston, had a superb showing in the Chamber match that year and 'KofiMania' was born.

Many will feel that could just have easily been Ali getting that push. However, he's currently involved in a program with Mansoor and hopefully the pair can team up or form a rivalry that gets them on the SummerSlam card!


#3. Keith Lee would make an impact at SummerSlam

Keith Lee is someone who just oozes charisma and star potential and it certainly looked like he was well on his way to the top of WWE's roster before he had to take an unexplained prolonged leave of absence from WWE.

Now that he's back and we can all bask in his glory once again I really hope that WWE has a plan for him that gets the Limitless One on the SummerSlam card, because he needs to be there.

Lee's push pre-absence was based on his ability to steal the show and standout at previous WWE pay-per-views like Survivor Series, so a match on the SummerSlam card should get him right back on track.

#2. Riddle has been the best thing on RAW for a while and deserves a SummerSlam spot.

WWE RAW Superstar Riddle still has a cloud hanging over him because of stuff that has happened outside of the ring. That being said, he deserves a SummerSlam spot. When you put him in the ring for Monday Night RAW he always delivers.

His character may be silly, and may make absolutely no sense when held up to any scrutiny, but he has been beyond consistent as an entertainer and as a wrestler and he'd be no less on top of his game on the SummerSlam card.


#1. Bianca Belair should be on the SummerSlam card without a doubt

Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks had the match of WrestleMania with their night one main event bout for the SmackDown Women's Championship. Belair has been a fighting champion ever since and is proving that she's every bit the star everyone thought she was.

As the reigning SmackDown Women's Champion, who has overcome both Bayley and Carmella since WrestleMania, Belair deserves to have a title defense on a big stage, and as SummerSlam is set to be bigger than 'Mania, you can't get bigger than there.
