There are still over two months until WWE is ready to present SummerSlam from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Still, the rumors are already flying around for what matches could happen even though Money In The Bank and Battleground still have to happen. The way things look now though, there could be huge things coming for Brock Lesnar , the Dudley Boyz, The Shield, and Stephen Amell of the hit show Arrow .
Please note that all of this should be taken as a rumor at this point. It is not confirmed in any way, and may never happen. Then again, it could happen.
It really doesn’t seem to matter what Brock Lesnar does upon his return to WWE television; the fans are going to cheer him. He’s going to be a babyface as he’s reached that level, and that’s all there is to it.
With that being said, WWE may draw out the feud for the WWE World Heavyweight Title between Lesnar and Seth Rollins until SummerSlam . For that main event, they actually pit Lesnar in a Fatal 4-Way against Rollins and the other (rumored) reunited members of The Shield .
Yes, The Shield could end up reuniting as has been rumored for a few months now. If that does actually happen, it would likely mean that Bray Wyatt won’t officially be back with a reunited Luke Harper and Erick Rowan.
Still, that would put Rowan and Harper in place for a feud with the possibly soon-to-be-signed Dudley Boyz . Rowan and Harper have recently started using the 3D as their finishing maneuver, but they are calling it “The Way.” Bubba Ray Dudley (Bully Ray) took exception to this fact.
. @REALBully5150 @WWE @TestifyDevon Anytime, anywhere…we would enjoy showing you THE WAY.

Another rumored match is one that is getting mixed news right now. Stardust (Cody Rhodes) has been waging a Twitter war with actor Stephen Amell of Arrow lately, and it’s getting quite serious.
Cinema Blend even reported that Stardust called out Amell at a recent WWE Live house show. This only added more fuel to the fire and started up even more rumors of the two possibly having a match at SummerSlam . However, after the rumors came out, Amell denied any possibility of that happening.
Lots of rumors circulating that I’m fighting @StardustWWE at Summerslam. Not true. Cody wants no piece of me.

WWE may be looking to go all out for SummerSlam this year, and so far, these are the rumored matches:
- WWE Title: Seth Rollins (c) vs. Brock Lesnar vs.??? (possibly Roman Reigns / Dean Ambrose )
- Stephen Amell vs. Stardust
- The Dudley Boyz vs. The Wyatt Family
- WWE Tag Title Gauntlet Match
SummerSlam ‘s build-up likely won’t truly begin until after Battleground in mid-July, but some things will be known by then. WWE is looking to make this a huge summer with Brock Lesnar’s return and possibly the Dudley Boyz too. Lots of rumors floating around, and now some truth is needed.
