Cardi B has long been a wrestling fan, but has yet to step foot inside the ring. Perhaps that could be changing when WWE’s SummerSlam comes to New Jersey next year, because the WWE has enlisted her to help announce that 2025’s SummerSlam is headed to East Rutherford’s MetLife Stadium for the first-ever two-night event of its kind. The action’s all going down on Aug. 2 and Aug. 3, 2025.
Cardi stars in the ad alongside WWE superstar Bianca Belair while her spicy Billboard Hot 100 top 10 hit “Enough” provides the soundtrack.
“Here’s to the Streets.. and to my girl @BiancaBelairWWE !SummerSlam. 2Nights. MetLife Stadium. August 2nd and 3rd,” she wrote to Instagram on Thursday (Sept. 26).
The clip finds the Bronx native in the glam room giving her friend Bianca Belair a call to break the good news. “I got two words for you: SummerSlam,” she said. “MetLife.” The WWE Women’s Tag-Team Champion responded: “I’m pretty sure that’s one word.”
Cardi continued with her idea of the two-word trend: “Two nights.”
The Bardi Gang began theorizing that the Grammy-winning rapper could be involved in a match and speculated her long-awaited sophomore album would be out by the time SummerSlam rolls around.
“Love this! You gotta DDT someone at SummerSlam,” USA Network chimed in on her post.
A fan even had an idea for her finishing move, writing in the comments, “Cardi’s finisher should be called Ms. DANGEROUS… ns that would eat!”
While she’s never made an appearance during a show, Cardi B has had her name thrown around inside the WWE universe. Back in 2021, WWE Hall of Fame diva Torrie Wilson gave her a shout-out during an episode of RAW. WWE legend Trish Stratus also lent her stamp of approval to Cardi on X. “Cardi knows,” she wrote.
To which an ecstatic Bardi replied: ““OMMMMMMMGGGGGG !!!!! Bitch I’m gagging !!!! I’m so hype !!!”
The momentum didn’t stop there as former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez professed their hopes of seeing “WAP” collaborators Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion team up in the ring.
“I would love to see Cardi and Meg The Stallion,” the tandem offered in May 2023. “I think Meg would be incredible. They’ve also been so active with us on Twitter and just responded to different things. Those two would be interesting to see in the ring. Us versus Cardi and Meg. Make it happen.”
