WrestleVotes reported earlier this week that WWE wants SummerSlam to take place in Boston and is willing to push the date to September but are also looking for other cities to host where they could possibly have fans in attendance.

He also said that the final decision would be in the hands of Vince McMahon and the Chairman of WWE is constantly going back-and-forth with himself on the decision regarding SummerSlam.
Vince McMahon adapting to having shows without crowd
Over the last couple of months, Vince McMahon has really had to think out of the box in order to adapt to having shows behind closed doors without live crowds. Despite Vince McMahon seeing the COVID-19 pandemic as an inconvenience to his vision and plans, WWE has put out a few memorable matches without crowd presence.
The Boneyard Match between The Undertaker and AJ Styles, the Firefly Fun House match between Bray Wyatt and John Cena, and the Last Man Standing match between Edge and Randy Orton stole the show at WrestleMania 36 and thrived in the absence of an audience. More recently, WWE hosted the most unique Money in the Bank where both ladder matches took place simultaneously at the WWE HQ.
