Saturday Night’s Main Event is finally upon us and it is expected to be an exciting show. That’s why WWE has booked a solid card for the event, ensuring that fans will have a great time from start to finish.
CM Punk & Cody Rhodes vs. Gunther & Sami Zayn
Undisputed WWE Champion CM Punk teams with Cody Rhodes to square off against Gunther and Sami Zayn in a tag team match in the main event. What’s interesting is that the SummerSlam match will become a Fatal 4-Way if Zayn and Gunther win, so we’ll have to see who walks out the winner.
WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship: Paige & Brie Bella (c) vs. Lainey Reid & Fallon Henley
The WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship will be defended as Paige and Brie Bella put their titles on the line against Fatal Influence’s Lainey Reid and Fallon Henley. Since capturing the championships, Paige and Brie have successfully defended the gold against The Irresistible Forces, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria, and Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez. So it remains to be seen if they can retain their titles this time as well.
Roman Reigns & Jalen Brunson Appearance
The OTC is coming to Madison Square Garden. Roman Reigns invited NBA Champion and New York Knicks superstar Jalen Brunson to join him at Saturday Night’s Main Event, and Brunson accepted. So now fans are waiting to see what they will actually do on the show.
Other Matches
Bayley will duke it out with Lyra Valkyria in singles competition, following Valkyria’s heel turn. Finally, JD McDonagh will face off against Danhausen in a No Disqualification match, so a lot of chaos is pretty much guaranteed.
