A UK bookie has written an article that's full of interesting stats (but as it's full of odds I'm not allowed to link to it):
World Heavyweight Championship
Alberto Del Rio (C) v Christian
The World Heavyweight Championship has been defended 10 times at SummerSlam, with the Championing retaining his belt 50 per cent of the time
Christian has a 60 per cent success rate at SummerSlam but lost a World Heavyweight Championship match here in 2011 to Randy Orton
Alberto Del Rio has lost two of his previous three SummerSlam matches
In 16 matches were these two have met, Christian has won 12 of them (75 per cent)
Christian has won 63 per cent of singles matches against Alberto Del Rio, and in their only previous Heavyweight Title bout, Christian won at Extreme Rules in May 2011
WWE Championship
John Cena (C) v Daniel Bryan – Special referee Triple H
The WWE Champion has retained his title 66 per cent of the time at SummerSlam
John Cena has won just four of nine matches at SummerSlam and lost a Championship Unification match when Triple H was a ref here two years ago
Daniel Bryan has won two and lost one of just three matches at SummerSlam
These two have only met in singles action twice, with Cena winning both
Cena has a 60 per cent success rate in Pay Per View action
Ring of Fire
Kane v Bray Wyatt
Since 2001 Kane has won six of seven matches at SummerSlam (86 per cent)
Kane has been in four ‘Inferno matches’ before and lost three of them
The Big Red Machine has just a 40 per cent strike rate at Pay Per View events
CM Punk v Brock Lesnar (with Paul Heyman)
Brock Lesnar has won two of three matches at SummerSlam, beating The Rock in 2002 and Triple H in 2012, but losing to Kurt Angle in 2003
CM Punk has won 57 per cent of his seven bouts at SummerSlam
Brock is bringing Heyman to the ring but in the history of Summerslam, a wrestler who brings in a manager gets beat 65 per cent of the time
Punk is undefeated in singles action since WrestleMania in April
Lesnar has lost just 28 per cent of his matches in WWE history
