What to Expect with Cardi B Hosting WWE SummerSlam 2025
Read Time:5 Minute, 32 Second
Cardi B is officially hosting SummerSlam 2025, and her involvement adds a whole new level of excitement to WWE’s biggest party of the summer.
Known for her music, bold personality, and deep love for wrestling, Cardi’s presence at the two-night event could bring crossover appeal like never before. With her new album ‘Am I The Drama?’ dropping just weeks later, the timing is perfect for her to dominate headlines, social feeds, and the WWE Universe all at once.
From possible interactions with Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill to making matches, and creating viral backstage moments, the opportunities are endless. This isn’t just a celebrity cameo. It’s a calculated moment in pop culture that could give WWE’s women’s division, and SummerSlam as a whole, a major spotlight.
Here’s everything we could see from Cardi B when she takes over SummerSlam:
‘Outside’ is the Official Theme Song
Although Cardi B was initially hesitant to release ‘Outside’ as the lead single for her sophomore album, her label urged her to trust the process, and it paid off. The song went viral on TikTok. Once it came out, it debuted at #10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and hit #1 on the US Apple Music chart.
As we head into August, WWE announced it as the official theme song for SummerSlam 2025. Expect to hear it everywhere leading up to the big night!
Interaction with Bianca Belair
Bianca Belair hasn’t been active on TV as of late. But, let’s not forget that the SummerSlam announcement was a phone call between her and Cardi B discussing the event being two nights.
There’s no way WWE brings Cardi to SummerSlam without acknowledging her “friendship” with Bianca. Whether Bianca returns in the lead-up or at the event itself, this feels like a lock.
She Could Make a Match on the Fly
One thing about Cardi B is that you never know what to expect. Her unpredictability could really be used here. Triple H even said in an interview with Billboard, “I don’t know if anybody can control Cardi B. Maybe someone like Chelsea Green confronts her with attitude, and Cardi ends up putting her in a match that night. Maybe she even slaps her given this tweet Chelsea sent back in 2023.
She even challenged her to a match in 2024 after she became the inaugural Women’s United States Champion. Imagine Cardi B stepping into the ring?
Or what if Trish Stratus wins the WWE Women’s Championship at Evolution? She could share an on-screen moment with Cardi, since Cardi was a big fan of hers growing up. If Trish is a heel, she could ruin the moment, leading Cardi to help Jade Cargill in their match.
We could also see Cardi in a segment with Jade. If you remember, Cardi reacted to a clip of Jade and Trina during Trina’s AEW appearance back on Dynamite in 2022.
Whatever it is, it needs to happen. Cardi B should be given the authority to make a match or two and get involved with the women. That would be a huge rub for them, and the clips could easily go viral.
‘Am I The Drama?’ Promo
Cardi B is set to release her sophomore album on September 19th. While she previously mentioned not wanting to drop anything in the lead-up, she’d be missing a huge opportunity by staying quiet.
This is all part of her rollout, so whether she drops a new single she’s passionate about, reveals the tracklist, or releases fresh visuals, aligning with WWE ahead of ‘Am I The Drama?’ just makes sense. It’s a smart business move that will keep her in the headlines across platforms she isn’t typically featured on.
Stefon Diggs Could Be There
It’s no secret that Cardi B is dating Stefon Diggs, wide receiver for the New England Patriots. She even raps about the Patriots locker room on ‘Outside’.
Stefon brings his own fanbase and star power to the table, so WWE would be the perfect setting for the new couple. Featuring Diggs alongside Cardi in segments could not only boost buzz but also help silence the breakup rumors that started when fans noticed she removed their photos from Instagram.
Backstage Segment with Angel Garza
Back when Cardi B was reportedly set to host SummerSlam in 2021, WWE aired a Raw segment featuring Torrie Wilson and Angel Garza. In the backstage bit, Garza excitedly approached Wilson with a rose Bachelor-style, prompted by Wilson’s playful claim that Cardi B, Kylie Jenner, and Ariana Grande were just down the hall watching Raw.
She even said Cardi was “looking fine” and would love the rose. However, it was a lie to get Garza to back off. Cardi took to Twitter with a mix of excitement and frustration over her unexpected WWE shout-out. She admitted she had not watched wrestling in years but was surprised by the sudden flood of mentions and the less-than-stellar introduction.
Her tweets sparked interactions with WWE stars like Trish Stratus and Melina, as she reminisced about the wrestling legends she grew up watching. Tap to expand this section to read Cardi’s tweets.
Maybe this year WWE acknowledges that moment with a fun backstage reunion involving Cardi. If Stefon Diggs is there, he could get involved too. Since Garza is one half of the AAA World Tag Team Champions, this could even lead to a match Cardi helps set up.
Will Megan Thee Stallion Show Up?
While the reception to Megan Thee Stallion’s ‘Neva Play’ featuring RM of BTS was mixed when it was announced as the official SmackDown theme for the new era, her friendship with Cardi B is well known.
And with ‘WAP’ set to appear on Cardi’s upcoming album despite being released in 2020, it raises the question… Could Megan show up in WWE alongside her?
After all, it’s the Biggest Block Party of the Summer. SummerSlam 2025 needs to feel bigger than ever, especially with it being a two-night event. If it’s not Megan, expect celebrity appearances backstage, on screen, and in the crowd.
