Just a few hours away, WWE Summerslam 2025 will emanate, live from The MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, marking the first time that the event will be spread across two separate nights. Before the action could unfold, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter provided a new update on the creative plans heading into the show, and it indicates multiple title changes.
According to the veteran Dave Meltzer of the source, multiple new champions are scheduled to come out of the stadium show on both nights. This comes after odds already heavily pointed out Cody Rhodes being the favorite to defeat John Cena for the Undisputed WWE Championship in the main event of WWE Summerslam 2025. The possibility of “The American Nightmare” leaving the show as a heel was also discussed, regardless of the winner.

In the other matches, Jade Cargill is expected to dethrone Tiffany Stratton from her 200-day-long WWE Women’s Title reign, while GUNTHER is set to lose the World Heavyweight Championship to CM Punk. Additionally, Lyra Valkyria is also believed to win back the Women’s Intercontinental Championship from Becky Lynch at WWE Summerslam 2025.
Plus, Andrade and Rey Fenix are the favored winners of the Six-Pack Tables, Ladders and Chairs Match. Meltzer also predicted numerous possible outcomes for both men’s world title matches, as he noted that the original plan called for Seth Rollins to cash-in his Money in the Bank contract after GUNTHER vs. Punk goes down at WWE Summerslam 2025.
However, Rollins is still injured after tweaking his knee at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event last month, leaving the fans to speculate if he’s legitimately hurt. Meltzer claimed in his report that having Punk win the title at WWE Summerslam 2025, followed by a surprising cash-in by The Visionary, would be great. But it’s unknown if WWE can go in that direction if Rollins’ injury is legitimate.
