The British summer might be a bit of a washout but temperatures are rising in Detroit as WWE prepares for Summerslam tonight, one of wrestling brand's so-called 'big five' events of the year.

There is already a stacked card for the event, which is airing live from the Motor City in Michigan, for the first time in 30 years.

In the latest instalment of the cinematic Bloodline storyline, Universal Champion Roman Reigns will take on Jey Uso in a singles match, while Logan Paul versus Ricochet is likely to be one of the highest-profile matches of the night in terms of social media reach as fans of the controversial YouTuber watch to see his latest in-ring exploits.

Ironically, the match is likely to be at pretty much the same time his brother Jake Paul will be fighting Nate Diaz in his latest pro-boxing fight.

What deals on WWE merchandise are available for UK fans ahead of Summerslam?

British fans keen to show their support for their favourite wrestlers can do so via WWE's Euroshop merchandise store powered by Fanatics, which showcases products not just for current roster stars but also many high profile legends - including Stone Cold Steve Austin, Macho Man Randy Savage, Razor Ramon and more.

The shop tends to run regular sales, discounts and offers in the run up to major events and Money in the Bank is no exception. We've already seen free shipping offers and a discount code - WWESHIP30 - but it's also worth checking the shop the day of the event as WWE tends to save some of its best deals to coincide with the night itself and wrestlers often come out in a natty new t-shirt which will go live on the shop as soon as they hit that entrance ramp.

Also, it's a chance to pick up merch from the event itself even if you're watching at home - so if you've already picked up Cardiff 3:16 and London 3:16 shirts from Clash at the Castle and Money in the Bank respectively you can already pick up a Detroit 3:16 one for your collection.
