WWE`s Summerslam will be taking place Sunday, August 19 on the WWE Network. For the fourth year in a row, the event will be held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Most of WWE`s championship titles will be up for grabs for the major event, including Roman Reigns taking on Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship.Summerslam`s main card will start at 7 PM ET / 4 PM PT. In the past couple of years, the bigger WWE events, like Summerslam and Wrestlemania, have had longer Kickoff Shows, which are two hours long, so expect this Kickoff to start at 5 PM ET / 2 PM PT. As of this writing, WWE`s scheduling for August 19 is not available, so we don`t know for sure.If you`re interested in watching the event, but don`t have the WWE Network, you can sign up for one month for free and cancel at any time without any contractual obligations. That means you can watch Summerslam for free and cancel right afterwards. However, if you like the service, it`ll cost you $10 a month to continue using it. The WWE Network is available on gaming consoles, iOS, Android, Roku, Smart TVs, and more.As of this writing, there are 13 matches on the card, two of which are on the Kickoff Show. There shouldn`t be any more added at this point.Aside from Reigns taking on Lesnar for the Universal Championship for the umpteenth time, there are some continuations of solid storylines as well as new rivalries that have some legs. Jeff Hardy will get his rematch against Shinsuke Nakamura for the United States Championship, and hopefully, Hardy learns to wear a cup to protect himself from low blows. Additionally, Ronda Rousey will get a chance to win the Raw Women`s Championship from Alexa Bliss. Hopefully, if Rousey ends up winning, she will be a fighting champion and not absent like a certain champion on the men`s roster has been for the past couple of years. The card is already pretty filled out, and we`re still a couple weeks away from the show.Summerslam match card:Rusev & Lana vs. Andrade ...
