Cardi B’s Status for WWE SummerSlam Revealed

SummerSlam 2025 is set to take place on August 2 and 3 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

This year marks the first time WWE’s blockbuster summer event will span two nights, and the company promised a massive experience from start to finish. When WWE initially announced that global music superstar Cardi B would serve as the official host of SummerSlam, fans went wild with anticipation.

However, as the event draws closer, WWE has noticeably stopped promoting her involvement, raising questions about whether the partnership is still intact.

Fightful Report Clears the Air on Cardi B’s SummerSlam Plans

According to a new report from Fightful Select, Cardi B is still scheduled to appear at SummerSlam 2025, despite WWE’s sudden silence. Sources within WWE told Fightful that the company “has long been making plans for the event with her in mind,” and claimed that “nothing has changed” regarding her role. The lack of recent on-air mentions, they say, isn’t indicative of any backstage drama or cancellations.

This clarification comes after weeks of confusion from fans. WWE had hyped up Cardi B’s participation heavily back in April with video announcements and online buzz. But in recent episodes of RAW and SmackDown, her name has been completely absent, a sharp contrast to WWE’s usual marketing strategy for celebrity appearances.

Adding to the confusion is the fact that the original announcement video featuring Cardi B is still live on WWE’s official website and YouTube channel. That content has not been removed or altered, which adds weight to the claim that she’s still part of the plan.

With just weeks left before the historic two-night SummerSlam, all signs indicate that Cardi B will still be present at the event despite the radio silence from WWE.
