The WWE SummerSlam Battle Royal will be presented by Slim Jim. Sheamus and LA Knight are the first two confirmed competitors, and they will do battle in singles action on next Friday’s go-home SmackDown. Adam Pearce noted that he will have the full match line-up finalized next week.
There’s no word yet on what the winner will receive as WWE noted in their official preview, “The Biggest Event of the Summer just got a whole lot wilder with the monumental announcement of a SummerSlam Battle Royal, presented by Slim Jim. Superstars will battle tooth-and-nail for glory in the total free-for-all as they fight off attacks in every direction. A competitor will be eliminated when they are thrown over the top rope and botht feet hit the ringside floor. Who will be the last Superstar in the squared circle? Find out at SummerSlam, Saturday, Aug. 5, at 8 ET/5 PT, streaming live on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else.”
