Jon Stewart turned his feud with Seth Rollins into a gig.
Stewart, who spent 16-years as host of “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart,” is set to host SummerSlam this Sunday, Aug. 23, at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT live on WWE Network.
Stewart stepped down from his post as host of “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart” on Thursday, Aug. 6. During his tenure, Stewart welcomed a wide array of high-profile guests, including President Barack Obama, former President Jimmy Carter, Clint Eastwood, Halle Berry, Ben Affleck, Jon Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Derek Jeter, Shaquille O’Neal, Bill Gates and many more.
This year, SummerSlam has been extended to a four-hour broadcast plus a one-hour pre-show beginning at 6 p.m. ET on WWE Network. Emanating live from a sold-out Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., SummerSlam will feature The Undertaker against Brock Lesnar in a rematch of their historic WrestleMania clash where The Beast Incarnate ended The Phenom’s undefeated streak.
This should be epic.
