John Cena vs. Cody Rhodes Odds & Pick
A WrestleMania rematch headlines the card at SummerSlam this weekend, as John Cena defends his WWE Undisputed title against Cody Rhodes. Cena made history by becoming a 17-time world champion with heelish tactics in Las Vegas, but there is every expectation that he will turn face again soon in his final year with the company. A double turn is incredibly likely this weekend, with Rhodes regaining the gold with a heel move. A final face run for Cena could see him regain the title later in the year.
Free Pick:
Gunther vs. CM Punk Odds & Pick
The World Heavyweight Championship showdown at SummerSlam this year will see Gunther defend the gold against CM Punk. Gunther’s title reign has already included a win over Goldberg this year, but once again, it has felt flat.
Punk’s ambition to win a title has created a narrative worth following throughout the year, and there is a strong chance that he captures the gold on Saturday. However, a Seth Rollins cash-in could be a potential final shot on SummerSlam Saturday.

Naomi vs. Rhea Ripley vs. Iyo Sky Odds & Pick
The Women’s World Championship match between Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky stole the show at the recent Evolution PPV.
However, Naomi would seize her chance to steal the gold in the closing seconds, leading to Ripley and Sky interrupting the new champion on the following edition of Raw. Naomi is likely to keep hold of the gold until Survivor Series at the earliest, meaning that a successful first title defense is expected at SummerSlam this weekend.
