This September, Ten Sports brings the exclusive telecast of all the matches of the WWE Summer Slam. Having started in the 1980's, the 'Summer Slam' extravaganza has emerged as one of the most eagerly awaited WWE events.

On the menu is the face-off between Brock Lesnar and 'The Rock' for the WWE Undisputed Championship and Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels and Rey Mysterio vs. Kurt Angle in the Non-Sanctioned Match. These matches will be telecast on 15 September at 2:30 pm.

And for those interested in trivia WWE stands for World Wrestling Enterprise. The name is a recent change made from the better-known World Wrestling Federation. The name change was forced on the federation after it lost a protracted court battle with the World Wildlife Fund, which had contended that the name was causing confusion. The fact that a blood sport like wrestling and a conservation effort, which is what WWF is known, are not exactly compatible (to put it mildly) would have no doubt influenced the decision as well.
