– The first promotional poster for WWE Summerslam is out, and it is distinctly lacking on Ronda Rousey, Dean Ambrose or Brock Lesnar. As Sportskeeda notes, all three stars are not present in the banner, which advertises NXT Takeover, the PPV, Raw and Smackdown over the weekend. You can see it below.

The lack of inclusion is interesting considering that there are reports that Rousey is leaving or taking time off following WrestleMania, and Lesnar is expected to face UFC heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier in the latter’s next fight. Ambrose, of course, has been announced as leaving the company once his contract is up late next month after WrestleMania. Rousey and Lesnar in particular are usually prominently featured, and Summerslam is one of the events Lesnar is usually booked for. Of course, this is by no means confirmation that any of them will in fact be done with the company at that point, but plenty of inference could be made

Summerslam takes place on August 11th in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and airs live on the WWE Network.
