While WrestleMania is the WWE’s biggest show of the year, based on the spectacle of the event. For true wrestling fans, SummerSlam is their show, since it focuses on the in-ring action.  

2023 marks the first time in 30 years since the last time SummerSlam was held in Michigan, as the show was at the Palace of Auburn Hills in 1993. That show was where the term getting “Lex Lugered” was birthed. When Lex Luger won his WWE Title Match against Yokozuna by countout but celebrated as if he actually won the championship. He was never the same in the WWE after that day.  

Whether you’re going to the show or not, there are some items you must have for WWE SummerSlam this Saturday night.  

  • Jey Uso “the Real Chief” t-shirt

    If you would’ve told a wrestling fan that one of the Uso’s would main event WrestleMania and SummerSlam ever, let alone the same year, not one would believe it.
