SummerSlam is traditionally considered WWE's second biggest PPV of the year, after WrestleMania.
And this year's event is likely to be headlined by WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and WWE legend-turned-Hollywood star John Cena, who returned to the ring after a few years this past Sunday at Money in the Bank.
