WWE is gearing up for its next major event later this month as Saturday Night’s Main Event returns on May 24, marking its first edition since January. The company is heavily promoting it as a pivotal show that will shape future storylines, and the card is already shaping up to be a strong one. Among the highlights is a blockbuster tag team match featuring some of the top names from Monday Night Raw.

CM Punk is set to team up with Sami Zayn to face Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker at the Yuengling Center in Tampa. This will mark the first time Rollins and Breakker compete as a tag team since forming their alliance following WrestleMania. Additionally, the match will serve as the opening chapter in the escalating rivalry involving Punk, Zayn, Rollins, Breakker, and Paul Heyman—battling for control over Raw.

Moreover, last night, CM Punk vowed to take down Rollins, Heyman, and Breakker. Zayn echoed similar sentiments, leading to a budding alliance between the two veterans. With WWE now positioning this tag team bout as a potential main event, Saturday Night’s Main Event is shaping up to be an action-packed and pivotal night for the WWE Universe.

In addition to the high-stakes tag team clash, WWE has also announced that Jey Uso will defend his World Heavyweight Championship against Logan Paul at Saturday Night’s Main Event. This will mark the first-ever one-on-one encounter between the two on the main roster, adding further intrigue to an already stacked card.

WWE is planning a massive match for John Cena’s Undisputed WWE Title at Saturday Night’s Main Event

John Cena is also scheduled to compete at Saturday Night’s Main Event later this month. While his opponent has yet to be confirmed, reports suggest that WWE is leaning toward pairing him with a fellow veteran. If this materializes, the event will be even more star-studded—with marquee names like Cena, CM Punk, and Logan Paul all competing on the same night.

According to Cory Hays, WWE is reportedly planning a long-awaited match between John Cena and R-Truth—marking their first one-on-one encounter in over a decade. The bout is expected to have the Undisputed WWE Championship on the line, with a heel Cena set to face off against the beloved Suntan Superman.

Given the recent developments on Raw, WWE seems to be laying the groundwork for this feud ahead of the upcoming event. During the Backlash Post-Show last weekend, ‘The Cenation Leader’ slammed the former United States Champion through a table—an act that added fuel to the speculation. This moment strongly hints that WWE is indeed building toward this match for the upcoming NBC special.

Other matches that could be added to Saturday Night’s Main Event card

After a dip in momentum following WrestleMania and Backlash, WWE is going all out to make this month’s Saturday Night’s Main Event a major spectacle. With two matches already confirmed and another heavily rumored, the company likely has two more slots to fill—assuming they stick to their typical five-match format for premium specials.

Given the current scenario, WWE is likely to book Iyo Sky vs. Rhea Ripley for the Women’s World Championship at Saturday Night’s Main Event. The two have been entangled in a long-running rivalry centered around the title. Now that their feud has taken a more personal yet calculated turn, WWE could look to culminate this storyline with a high-stakes showdown at the NBC special.

Moreover, fans can expect Jacob Fatu to defend his United States Championship at the event, possibly against a top contender like LA Knight or Damian Priest. The Samoan Werewolf is riding a wave of momentum, and another successful title defense could further cement his dominance as a rising force in WWE.
