Summer Slam will be the first Premium Live WWE Event held in Minnesota since "Tables, Ladders, and Chairs" in 2019. In addition to the two-night festivities, there will be an array of fan and community events leading up to and after Summer Slam.

WWE's Executive Vice President Head of Communications Chris Legentil says U.S. Bank Stadium is a world-class venue in the middle of a city with a rich wrestling history and an amazing fan base.
