We’re only a few months away from one of WWE’s biggest events of the year in SummerSlam, and the company has finally set a date for the biggest party of the summer.
We previously reported at The Ringside Roster that WWE SummerSlam was set to be held on Saturday August 21st and likely in Las Vegas.
The company just made things official with the date with an announcement today. Although, they noted that the “summer destination location” is set to be announced during the 2021 Belmont Stakes’ pre-race show on NBC next Saturday, June 5.
The Biggest Event of the Summer returns Saturday, August 21!

We’ll have to see if Las Vegas is still the companies desired location for SummerSlam or if they’ll be heading elsewhere. As we’ve noted before, Manny Pacquiao has his next big fight on August 21st in Las Vegas. This could have caused WWE to re-think that location.
At least we won’t have to wait much longer to find out as June 5th is right around the corner.
Where do you hope to see SummerSlam take place? Let us know in the comments.
