The Brooklyn Cyclones and WWE have partnered for SummerSlam Night at MCU Park on Thursday, August 16th to kick off a borough-wide celebration as WWE bring SummerSlam, the biggest event of the summer, to Barclays Center on Sunday, August 19th. The Cyclones and WWE will also be raising funds for Connor’s Cure – a pediatric cancer fund – started in honor of WWE Fan Connor Michalek.
As part of the night’s festivities, the Cyclones will be wearing special Connor’s Cure jerseys featuring the “championship belt” style logo around the waste and beads on the sleeves inspired by the Connor’s Cure Bracelets that are sold to benefit the fund. 10 jerseys will be raffled off that evening in park with the remaining items available at CyclonesAuthentics.com or BrooklynCyclones.com/Summerslam.
Fans will be able to purchase a $20 ticket, which will include a Field Box Ticket, Connor’s Cure Bracelet and charitable donation. For each package sold, a bracelet will also be donated to a children’s hospital. Just CLICK HERE and use code “Cure” at checkout.
Scheduled to join the Cyclones at the ballpark that night, in support of Connor’s Cure, will be Big Show, Mark Henry, Ember Moon and WWE Ambassador Dana Warrior. (Superstars subject to change). They will be signing autographs on the concourse in two locations from 7:00 – 8:00 PM. For a $20 donation to Connor’s Cure you will be able to get two autographs with the Superstars. Those who donate will also receive a Connor’s Cure Bracelet. Space is EXTREMELY LIMITED, so autographs are not guaranteed.
Fans will also be able to raise funds for Connor’s Cure by getting their face painted like The Ultimate Warrior on the concourse in exchange for a charitable donation.
Tickets are available now by calling 718-507-TIXX, at BrooklynCyclones.com/tickets or in person at the MCU Park Box Office.
