Where are you going to be on Sunday, August 19? Will you be out in the sun, enjoying a beverage by the beach or will you be inside all day watching a WWE PPV? If you`re a wrestling fan, chances are you`ll be watching Summerslam on the WWE Network.For the fourth year in a row, the WWE event will be taking place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
