WWE SummerSlam 2015

SummerSlam (2015) is an upcoming professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by WWE. It will take place on August 23, 2015, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York City, New York. It will be the twenty-eighth event under the SummerSlam chronology, and the first since 2008 to be held outside of Los Angeles as Staples Center was the exclusive home for SummerSlam from 2009 to 2014. This is to be the 8th SummerSlam to be held in the New York metropolitan area after the 1988, 1989, 1991, 1997, 1998, 2002, and 2007 editions. The Izod Center was originally supposed to host SummerSlam, but due to its closure in April 2015, the event was moved to the Barclays Center. The event will also be the first in the SummerSlam chronology to be four hours in length, a length previously reserved only for WrestleMania.

WWE Payback 2014 was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by WWE. It took place on June 1, 2014 at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois. It was the second event under the Payback chronology, with the event having originated in 2013. Nine matches (including the pre-show) took place at the event. There were two main events. The first main event saw John Cena defeat Bray Wyatt in a Last Man Standing Match to culminate the feud. The second main event and last match of the night saw The Shield (Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose) defeat Evolution (Triple H, Randy Orton and Batista) in a No Holds Barred six-man tag team elimination match. It was the first event since TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs (2013) that the WWE World Heavyweight Championship was not defended. Current champion Daniel Bryan, however, was present at the event, despite having neck surgery and was coaxed by Stephanie McMahon to surrender his title or his wife Brie Bella would be fired.
