• SummerSlam 2020 May Be Pushed Into September, Update On Possible New Location
As we noted earlier, large gatherings have been banned in the city of Boston by Mayor Marty Walsh, which means WWE can’t hold the event there anymore.
WrestleVotes reached out to a few sources to get an update on the status of SummerSlam weekend.
According to their sources, WWE is planning to relocate SummerSlam to a place where fans will be allowed. The states of Florida and Georgia are potential candidates to host the event.
The event is originally scheduled to take place on August 23rd, but WWE may push it into September.
In regards to NXT TakeOver, it’s status is up in the air.
What I’ve learned from sources on SummerSlam.

– Keep an eye on the South, FL & GA.
