WWE News: SummerSlam 2019 Location Announced

We’re just a few hours away from tonight’s edition of WWE’s Monday Night RAW, emanating from the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Not only will tonight’s RAW be there, but tomorrow night’s SmackDown Live will also be in the same venue, just as we saw last week with both the red and blue brand coming to us from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York on the heels of SummerSlam.

Today, an announcement regarding WWE’s return to the Scotiabank Arena next year as the company will be bringing NXT TakeOver: Toronto II on August 10th, SummerSlam on August 11th, then RAW and SmackDown Live once again on August 12th and 13th respectively. This will be the first time that SummerSlam has left the United States since 2004 when it was in the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. This is also the first time since 2014 that the event has left Brooklyn, when it was at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.

WWE’s Executive Vice President of Special Events John Saboor issued the following comments on the company’s behalf:

“We are thrilled to bring WWE’s biggest event of the summer back to Toronto. We look forward to working with our partners at Tourism Toronto and Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment to build a blueprint that welcomes our global fan base to the great city of Toronto.”
