World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) SummerSlam will take place next Sunday and the WWE has finally appended the list of matches that will take place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York City.

Headlining the upcoming WWE pay-per-view (PPV) is of course that raucous match between Brock Lesnar and the Undertaker. More matches were added after the last WWE RAW show last Monday.

That includes the tag team match involving Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose pitted against Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper, as well as the Triple-Threat match for the Intercontinental title that involves Ryback, Big Show, and The Miz.

The much talked about participation of Arrow star Stephen Amell was made official, although it will not be a one-on-one. Rather, the Arrow will team up with Neville against the team of Stardust and King Barrett in tag team action. Now, the question is — will Amell wear the Arrow costume or just come as himself?

There is also an elimination tag match which will see nine WWE Divas slugging it out. The teams are Team Bella vs. Team BAD vs. PCB to determine who will reign supreme.

The WWE Tag Team titles will be on the line but the Prime Time Players may have a long night ahead this Sunday. The match will pit four tag teams vying for the Tag Team belts. Aside from the Prime Time Players, teams participating will include the New Day, the Lucha Dragons, and Los Matadores.

John Cena vs. Seth Rollins is still in the cards, although the match could depend on whether John Cena is fit to compete. Cena is nursing a broken nose courtesy of Seth Rollins; and the WWE Universe has yet to see the U.S. champ back on live shows.

Dolph Ziggler vs. Rusev is also still unofficial, a storyline that somehow got shelved when Ziggler had to take some time off with Kane for taping for the movie 6:42.

There is also a match that could include Sheamus and Randy Orton, as well as the Kevin Owens vs. Cesaro duel.

With about a week to go, more matches could be arranged in the coming week.

WWE SummerSlam is set to take place on Aug. 23 starting at 7 p.m. EST or 4 p.m. PST and will be aired live via the WWE Network.
