WWE is heading towards SummerSlam 2026, and the anticipation is in the air. Amid this, major rumors are circulating online, sparking discussion among fans.

A massive update has emerged regarding Bayley's WWE status. Moreover, a major name is reportedly in talks with the sports entertainment juggernaut. In this article, let's discuss all the ongoing rumors and two rumors we hope are true and three rumors we hope are not.

Over the past few weeks, Becky Lynch has not primarily been part of any storyline on Monday Night RAW. The last time she competed inside the squared circle was on June 8, 2026, in the Queen of the Ring first-round match.

Since losing that bout, Lynch has yet to compete in an in-ring match. As SummerSlam is on the horizon, a report has revealed The Man's status for the two-night PLE.

As per the report, Lynch is not expected to be part of the Biggest Party of the Summer, as she is likely to return post-SummerSlam. We hope that this rumor is not true.

The company should include Becky on the SummerSlam card, given her popularity among fans. It would be a big surprise if Triple H missed the opportunity to book Becky for the PLE.

Bayley is currently the talk of the town. The Hugger's WWE contract is set to expire soon, and reports have affirmed that there is no confirmation on whether she has re-signed.

If Bayley doesn't re-sign with the company, this will eventually make her a free agent by October of this year. It could also lead to her departure from the TKO-led promotion, which would be a major blow to its women's division.

We hope that the rumors are not true and that Triple H has already offered a contract to the veteran star and managed to get her re-signed.

On a previous episode of WWE SmackDown, Jade Cargill destroyed Alexa Bliss and seemingly wrote her off television. After attacking her arm, Alexa has yet to appear in World Wrestling Entertainment.

Recently, the company announced a Women's Interim Championship Ladder Match for SummerSlam. Many were hoping that Alexa Bliss might be part of this bout, but it's unlikely to happen.

Sources disclosed that the beloved star is not planned to be part of the Women's Interim Championship Ladder Match at the Biggest Party of the Summer. Also, she is expected to miss the show.

We hope that the WWE rumor is not true. The company should consider pushing Bliss as a singles star, especially when there is a clear opportunity to add her to the ladder match.

Triple H is attempting his best to make SummerSlam a monumental PLE. According to reports, the TKO-led promotion is in talks with Tom Brady. Recently, he and Logan Paul were engaged in a heated face-off at the Fanatics event.

Though there is no update on whether the company is considering Tom as part of the SummerSlam show, we hope that the rumor is true, as adding a celebrity is a great way to attract a non-wrestling audience.

Also, a Tom Brady vs Logan Paul feud is something that holds potential to go viral online.

The Women's Interim title Ladder Match at WWE SummerSlam will be interesting to watch. As of now, there are still two spots left to be filled on the match card, and according to reports, WWE could bring AJ Lee back as a surprise entrant.

Since WrestleMania 42, the former Divas Champion has been notably absent from the company. Pulling the trigger on her comeback in the Women's Interim Title Ladder Match is a good choice to bring her back to TV, and we hope that this rumor is true.
