While WWE earlier promoted the match between Cody Rhodes and CM Punk as the Night One main event, PWInsider Elite has reported that Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi will close the show. This could also be the Beast Incarnate’s last outing to the squared circle, and it seems like the change was made to give the star a proper farewell.

Cody Rhodes and CM Punk will face off in a Street Fight at WWE SummerSlam

Aside from changing the main event, it appears that Triple H and Co. have also made a change to the stipulation of the match between Cody Rhodes and CM Punk.

The two former AEW stars were previously scheduled to face off in a regular-rules match. However, the graphics on the SummerSlam chairs list the showdown between the two as a Street Fight. While the official announcement for the same has not been made yet, there is still some time before the event, and the change could be announced on the SummerSlam pre-show.

Aside from the two aforementioned matches, Night One of WWE SummerSlam will also feature the Women’s World Championship match between Liv Morgan and Iyo Sky. We will also see LA Knight, Solo Sikoa, and Royce Keys join forces to take on The Bloodline, while Nick Aldis will return to in-ring action after three years to face Gunther. There is also a six-woman tag team match scheduled for Saturday as The Bella Twins and Paige will take on The Fatal Influence.
