The role for SummerSlam host Cardi B will reportedly be limited, as the 32-year-old music megastar is now expected to appear only on Night One of the two-night event.
According to a report from WrestleVotes, current plans within WWE have the Grammy-winning artist’s hosting duties concentrated on Saturday, August 2. While she was previously expected to be a part of both nights at MetLife Stadium, the new information suggests her involvement on Sunday is not expected.
This update follows a period of uncertainty among fans who noted a lack of promotional material featuring Cardi B in July. While other outlets like Fightful recently confirmed that she was still slated to be the host, this new report clarifies the scope of her scheduled appearance.
Speculation continues to build around a potential on-screen confrontation between Cardi B and WWE star Chelsea Green. The two exchanged words on social media, leading to theories that the host might get physically involved in a segment, similar to WWE’s recent celebrity integrations with Bad Bunny and Logan Paul.
The possibility of a physical angle is fueled by the fact that top star Bayley currently lacks a scheduled match for the weekend. WWE has a long history of celebrity crossovers, and with main events like John Cena vs. Cody Rhodes and CM Punk vs. Gunther, SummerSlam is positioned as the company’s biggest show of the summer.
