— According to sources backstage in WWE, there were many changes to the SummerSlam script in the hours leading up to the show. In an effort to prevent leaks on Reddit.com and wrestling news sites, only a select few WWE staffers knew about the main event finish before it happened.

— There were 17,739 fans in attendance at the STAPLES Center for WWE’s SummerSlam pay-per-view.
