"After speaking to a few sources on the topic, I’ve learned that WWE is 100% attempting to make SummerSlam this year’s WrestleMania. “All resources will be tapped into” is how it was explained to me. I do believe they want Reigns v Cena to headline. Not sure if they’ve decided." - WrestleVotes

"Gonna tell you... If SummerSlam isn't a home run this year something terrible had to have happened... On paper, the show looks to be awesome..." - Andrew Zarian.
