SummerSlam and shows thereafter reportedly will be at Amway Center in Orlando

It has been rumored that WWE have been trying to put on their SummerSlam event in a place other than their Performance Center. As a result of the current health pandemic, WWE has been having the majority of their shows at either their Performance Center in Orlando, Fla. or their NXT home at Full Sail University. This has been the case minus a few matches that took place at other locations.

Ryan Satin of Pro Wrestling Sheet is confirming that his sources say that WWE is close to finalizing the deal with Amway Center in Orlando, Fla. There is also talks that moving forward, future shows such as RAW and SmackDown may also take place there.

Hearing a bunch of different things from sources today after this Amway Center news hit. Sounds like a lot of interesting things are in the works at the moment in an effort to revitalize the WWE product a little.

I hope this all helps.

The shows need it.

WrestleVotes has also confirmed this from their sources as seen in the Twitter posts below.

Good news, Bad news:

SummerSlam will not take place in the PC.

However, no fans will be in attendance.

Source still unsure on exact location, as the northeast possibility is now said to be iffy at best.

Strong sense of enthusiasm at the Performance Center today… All TVs after this coming Monday’s RAW will indeed be live and from the Amway Center in Orlando. Some normalcy on the horizon.
