WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event updates

In the new issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer provided a couple of updates on WWE’s plans for Saturday Night’s Main Event.

The classic series returns next month with a special taking place from the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, New York on December 14. No matches have been announced for the card yet, but Meltzer notes that — as of earlier this week — Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes vs. Kevin Owens is planned to be the main event.

Saturday Night’s Main Event is slated to air live on both NBC and Peacock. The classic series is returning as a quarterly special, and WrestleVotes reported this week that WWE is already planning another episode for January. The date would be January 25, which is just one week before Royal Rumble 2025.

Meltzer writes that San Antonio has been mentioned as a possible location for the January 25 Saturday Night’s Main Event.

“WrestleVotes reported a second Saturday Night’s Main Event for 1/25,” he wrote. “We had heard that same date and at the time San Antonio was mentioned to us as a possible location but not finalized.”

Saturday Night’s Main Event first existed from 1985-1992 and then had a second run from 2006-2008.
