Former WWE announcer turned ESPN broadcaster Jonathan Coachman revealed on Twitter yesterday that he'll be going to SummerSlam next Sun., Aug. 23, 2015, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. He also seemed to indicate he'll be there for work.
So next weekend does anyone know of anything to do in Brooklyn. Don't have anything on my schedule. No wait... Yes I do. #SS

"@JoshNASCARWWE: @TheCoachESPN Will we see you on air? The masses want to know!"-I'm not going just to be a spectator. #sportscenter.

There were rumors some time back that there was something going on with ESPN and WWE but nothing seemed to come of it. This wouldn't necessarily prove those rumors true, but WWE has been all over ESPN programming this year, including coverage of WrestleMania 31.
Perhaps we'll see the Brock Lesnar-Undertaker finish on Sportscenter?
Update: The Observer is reporting that ESPN will, in fact, be there to cover the show for Sportscenter.
