NXT Not Scheduled for SummerSlam Weekend – As WWE prepares for its blockbuster two-night SummerSlam event at MetLife Stadium on August 2 and 3, 2025, fans have been wondering if NXT will be part of the festivities. However, according to a recent update from WrestleVotes, the developmental brand will not be hosting a show tied to SummerSlam weekend.
During a Q&A session, WrestleVotes responded to a fan inquiry about NXT’s involvement, offering clarity on the brand’s summer schedule.
“No, they will not be doing anything tied into SummerSlam weekend as of now. They do have their own event—it will be taking place at the end of August and we’re looking to nail down the date and location for that—but no, it will not be tied into SummerSlam weekend.”
This marks a departure from recent trends where NXT events, such as Stand & Deliver, have aligned with WWE’s major stadium shows like WrestleMania. Instead, NXT appears focused on carving out its own space on the calendar with a standalone Premium Live Event later in August.
For now, fans can look forward to NXT Battleground this Sunday, May 25, 2025, which features a strong card and serves as the brand’s immediate priority. While NXT won’t be part of SummerSlam weekend in New Jersey, it remains firmly in WWE’s spotlight with its own trajectory of high-profile events and rising stars.
