WWE SummerSlam 2023 early predictions have started as the biggest party of this summer will take place on August 5 at the Ford Field in Detroit. Interestingly, SummerSlam will be the first premium live event to take place in the United States since WrestleMania 39, which happened back in April.
The last premium live event of WWE was Money in the Bank which happened at the O2 Arena in London. It was a spectacular event, and it has laid the groundwork for five matches which may now happen at SummerSlam. Here’s a list of the five matches.
1. WWE SummerSlam early predictions – Roman Reigs vs Jey Uso
Jey Uso became the first WWE Superstar to pin Roman Reigns in almost 1300 days at Money in the Bank. Jey may now challenge the Tribal Chief for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at SummerSlam in Detroit.
2. WWE SummerSlam early predictions – Brock Lesnar vs Cody Rhodes
The filler time for Cody Rhodes is complete. Now it's time for the real stuff. The road to SummerSlam begins.

Brock Lesnar was rumored to return at Money in the Bank. However, the Beast Incarnate did not show up. It seems like Lesnar may return on the road to SummerSlam and set up the final match of his rivalry with Cody Rhodes.
3. Becky Lynch and Lita vs Trish Stratus and Zoey Stark
Trish Stratus and Zoey Stark played a vital role in Becky Lynch not winning Money in the Bank. It seems like WWE will book a tag team match at SummerSlam, where Lita may return to help Big Time Becks against Trish and her ally.
4. Drew McIntyre vs Gunther

Drew McIntyre will challenge Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship next. While the match can happen on RAW in the coming weeks, SummerSlam will be the perfect stage for this grand match.
5. Ronda Rousey vs Shayna Baszler
Ronda Rousey will reportedly leave WWE soon. She may wrestle the last match of her WWE career against her best friend Shayna Baszler, who turned on Ronda at Money in the Bank last Saturday.
