WWE will host this month’s Saturday Night’s Main Event from San Antonio, TX, on January 25, just one week before the Royal Rumble PLE. As a key event on the road to WrestleMania, it carries significant implications. To make the show even more impactful, WWE has announced two huge matches set to headline the NBC spectacle later this month.

As announced on Raw, Gunther will defend his World Heavyweight Championship against Jey Uso in a rematch from the King of the Ring tournament. Additionally, Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker will put both his title on the line against WWE veteran Sheamus in another highly anticipated clash. Both matches will take place at SNME, adding new chapters to these rivalries.

Last night on Raw, The Ring General and ‘Main Event’ Jey Uso had a heated confrontation. Uso made his case for being a legitimate contender for the World Championship, but Gunther dismissed him, refusing to consider him on his level. The Austrian wrestler told the Bloodline member that while “Main Event” may be a title Uso claims, it is a place where Gunther truly belongs.

Sheamus and Bron Breakker also had a tense encounter on Raw. After The Celtic Warrior’s match, he shoved the 27-year-old Breakker, pushing him aside. Breakker fired back, dismissing the former WWE Champion as old and worn out. It will be intriguing to see how this rivalry develops as both men head toward WrestleMania.

Could Gunther and Bron Breakker drop their titles at Saturday Night’s Main Event?

Gunther and Bron Breakker are two of WWE’s most dominant champions at the moment, each enjoying a lengthy and defiant reign. However, as WWE approaches the unpredictable road to WrestleMania, speculation is growing that both champions could lose their titles at Saturday Night’s Main Event.

While Breakker is likely to retain his title against Sheamus at the event, Gunther may be on the verge of losing his championship. WWE could position Breakker to take the title at WrestleMania 41, setting up a major moment on the grand stage. However, there are growing speculations that Gunther may drop his title before reaching the Grandest Stage of Them All this year.

Although the chances of Jey Uso defeating The Ring General are slim, the possibility remains. It will be fascinating to see how WWE shapes these unpredictable matches leading up to WrestleMania. The buildup to the match will play a crucial role in determining the outcome of this showdown.
