WWE’s revival of Saturday Night’s Main Event has been confirmed for a second special, according to a report from Dave Meltzer.
During the latest episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, Meltzer discussed the news previously reported by WrestleVotes of the special taking place on January 25.
Commenting on the date being so close to the Royal Rumble on February 1, Meltzer stated:
The deal is that when they get the date from NBC, that is the date they run. They do not run NBC. NBC is the one who makes the choice. They are the higher power in this one.
WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event makes its long-awaited return to NBC (with a simulcast on Peacock) on Saturday, December 14 from the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Long Island, New York.
Three matches have been announced for the event as of this writing:
- Undisputed WWE Championship: Cody Rhodes defends against Kevin Owens
- Women’s World Championship: Liv Morgan defends against IYO SKY
- World Heavyweight Championship: Gunther defends against Finn Balor
