WWE SummerSlam 2026: Top 5 Must-See Matches
Top 5 Challengers for the WWE Speed Championship
WWE Women’s United States Championship: Tiffany Stratton (c) vs. Jordynne Grace vs. Jade Cargill
The Angle: Tiffany Stratton has been holding down the SmackDown brand as the Women's U.S. Champion since April. Placing her in a triple threat against the raw power of Grace—who has been making waves on the main roster since January—and the dominance of Jade Cargill creates a perfect high-stakes collision for the Minneapolis crowd.
WWE United States Championship: Trick Williams (c) vs. Baron Corbin
The Angle: Trick Williams has been the man to beat since WrestleMania 42. With Baron Corbin’s return, this isn't just a title defense; it's a veteran trying to crush the momentum of one of WWE’s brightest new stars.
Bayley vs. Natalya
The Angle: Bayley’s return is one of the most anticipated moments of the summer. Pairing her with a locker-room pillar like Natalya gives Bayley the perfect platform to re-establish her dominance in the division.
The Miz vs. Danhausen
The Angle: After his chaotic run through the main roster, including "cursing" top stars like Liv Morgan at Night of Champions, Danhausen has become a massive nuisance. The Miz needs to "uncurse" himself, and there is no better stage than SummerSlam to silence the most "very nice, very evil" man in WWE.
WWE Tag Team Championship: Damian Priest & R-Truth (c) vs. Drew McIntyre & Kevin Owens
The Angle: Priest and Truth have been holding the gold since March, but McIntyre and Owens are as dangerous as it gets. This match is all about survival for the champions as they face two of the most aggressive strikers in the company.
