- Roman Reigns defeated former faction-mate Seth Rollins in the main event to retain the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, making him the only titleholder to leave Night 2 with his belt
- Baron Corbin defeated Trick Williams to claim the United States Championship
- Chad Gable submitted Penta to win the Intercontinental Championship
- Chelsea Green won a five-woman ladder match to capture the Interim WWE Women's Championship
- Kevin Owens returned from an extended injury layoff to establish himself as the No. 1 contender for CM Punk's Undisputed WWE Championship
- SummerSlam Night 2 took place at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis and marked the end of the extended Reigns-Rollins rivalry
Why it matters: WWE reset three of its midcard title pictures in a single night — Corbin, Gable, and Green each newly crowned — while also booking Owens as Punk's next challenger, meaning Reigns remains the lone defending champion atop the card as the company builds out fresh rivalries around the freshly crowned titleholders.
