WWE is going all-in on nostalgia for Saturday Night’s Main Event, with a stacked lineup of legends set to grace the Nassau Coliseum. Jesse “The Body” Ventura, a name synonymous with the iconic show, is confirmed to make his return, bringing an extra dose of old-school flair to the event.
According to earlier reports, other legends scheduled to appear include Koko B. Ware, Greg Valentine, Tito Santana, and Jimmy Hart. However, Ted DiBiase, originally on the lineup, has had to bow out. Sescoops reports that The Million Dollar Man had committed to attend but was forced to withdraw due to unforeseen circumstances.
Even without DiBiase, WWE has stacked the card for Saturday Night’s Main Event. Cody Rhodes will defend his WWE Undisputed Championship against Kevin Owens, GUNTER will battle Finn Balor and Damian Priest for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, and an inaugural WWE United States Women’s Champion will be crowned. Liv Morgan will face IYO SKY, while Sami Zayn goes head-to-head with Drew McIntyre.
Saturday Night’s Main Event promises to deliver a night of nostalgia and action, blending legendary names with today’s top stars.
