Report: Likely Locations Named For WWE Money In The Bank And SummerSlam 2021, Update On Live Crowds
In the latest update to live audiences returning to WWE events, Money in the Bank and SummerSlam now have likely locations revealed.
With the exception of WrestleMania 37, WWE has been without live audiences in attendance at their events since March of last year. Now that the world is slowly returning to normal following the global coronavirus pandemic, WWE is looking to make the shift back to full-time touring.
Recently, Andrew Zarian of the Mat Men podcast reported that live audiences would have returned to WWE events in July beginning on July 16. Now, a new report from Sports Illustrated notes that Money in the Bank will be held in July and is being slated to be held in front of a crowd in Texas.
Texas is also going to be the site of next year’s WrestleMania which will be held at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas.
Moving on to SummerSlam, last year’s SummerSlam weekend saw the debut of the WWE Thunderdome concept. This year, the event will be held in Nevada, Sports Illustrated confirms.
Our premium service, Fightful Select had previously named Las Vegas, Nevada as the front-runner to hold WWE SummerSlam.
This will be the first time ever that SummerSlam is held in Nevada. Last year’s event was slated to be held in Boston, Massachusetts before the world shut down due to COVID-19.
July will also see the return to live crowds for Ring of Honor and Major League Wrestling, as well as a return to touring for AEW.
Fightful will continue to monitor this story and report any and all updates as they are made available.
