With Reigns standing at a position where only a few pro wrestlers are right now and Cena trying to take away his limelight, it will be one of the most-awaited fights of this main event.

For Cena, it will be a chance to find out if Reigns is as good as the hype around him. It’s everything WWE needs right now and everything that makes pro wrestling so great.

With the videos of his returning and challenging ‘The All-Mighty’ Bobby Lashley gaining huge views, it will be a class experience for all WWE fans as he takes on Lashley for the WWE Championship belt. Sasha Banks for the title After being defeated by ‘The EST of WWE’ Bianca Belair at WrestleMania 37, Sasha Banks will look to get back at her by winning the SmackDown Women’s Championship title at the upcoming WWE SummerSlam. After being chosen for the first ever women’s match to headline WrestleMania in history, the two will be back with another historic fight in the WWE SummerSlam 2021. With brilliant athleticism of Belair pitted against the smooth technical wrestling ability of Banks, fans will surely be hooked for this duel. It will be interesting to watch Bianca defending her title against ‘The Boss’ Sasha. The Architect vs Rated R Superstar A rivalry that’s seven years in the making, ‘The Architect’ Seth Rollins could not finish the ‘Rated-R Superstar’ Edge in 2014 but came back for revenge at Money In the Bank 2021 where he cost Edge the chance to become Universal Champion by interfering in his match with Roman Reigns. Edge is now furious and hell bent on seeking his own revenge with Seth. Edge has a motive to prove that he can still be the top draw in WWE while Seth will want to show that the time of the ‘Rated-R Superstar’ is done in WWE. This will be quite an explosive matchup between two superstars - one that is sure to blow the roof off by getting fans into a frenzy. Modern Day Maharaja vs The Scottish Warrior The ‘Modern Day Maharaja’ Jinder Mahal and ‘The Scottish Warrior’ Drew McIntyre were erstwhile close buddies and together in the group 3MB. Things came to a head when Jinder Mahal demanded his rightful opportunity over Drew McIntyre in the WWE arena. Along with his Indian cohorts Shanky and Veer, Jinder has made life a living hell for Drew over the past month. Both will get a stage to prove their superiority at WWE SummerSlam 2021. This will be Jinder’s first match on a PPV card in almost two and half years.
