WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event Delivers Drama and Surprises, Cody Rhodes Retains Championship
WWE's Saturday Night’s Main Event returned to primetime with an action-packed show on December 14, 2024, at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York. This event marked the first time the iconic series had been broadcast since 2008, and it certainly did not disappoint. The night was filled with thrilling matchups, unexpected twists, and a few jaw-dropping moments that left fans buzzing.
The Undisputed WWE Championship match between Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens was the night’s centerpiece. The highly anticipated bout lived up to the hype, with both competitors giving everything they had. Rhodes successfully defended his title against Owens, but the celebration was short-lived. After the match went off the air, Owens launched a brutal attack on Rhodes, delivering a piledriver that left The American Nightmare motionless in the ring. Owens taunted the crowd before Paul "Triple H" Levesque confronted him backstage, adding an extra layer to the drama. The shocking turn of events sets the stage for a potential rematch at the Royal Rumble, leaving fans questioning what’s next for both Rhodes and Owens.

In another high-stakes match, Gunther defended his World Heavyweight Championship in a triple-threat against Finn Balor and Damian Priest. The action was non-stop, with all three men bringing their A-game. However, it was Gunther who emerged victorious, successfully retaining his title after powerbombing both Priest and Balor. Despite the impressive win, it seems that the feud between Priest and Balor may continue, which could be a distraction from Gunther's next major challenge.
Liv Morgan also managed to retain her Women’s World Championship in a fierce battle against Iyo Sky. Although Sky dominated large portions of the match, Morgan's resilience shone through as she overcame the odds to secure the victory. This sets up a potential showdown between Morgan and Rhea Ripley, who interrupted her celebration and sent a chilling reminder of what’s to come.
The night also saw history being made in the Women’s United States Championship final, where Chelsea Green faced Michin. Green managed to outsmart Michin, who had been distracted by the presence of Piper Niven. This allowed Green to claim victory and become the inaugural Women’s U.S. Champion. The storylines involving Michin and Niven are far from over, and fans can expect this rivalry to continue into 2025.
To kick off the event, Drew McIntyre and Sami Zayn engaged in a hard-fought grudge match. McIntyre’s raw power was on full display, but Zayn’s heart and determination kept him in the game. However, McIntyre’s Claymore kick sealed the deal, securing a big win for the Scottish warrior.
Saturday Night's Main Event was a throwback to WWE’s golden era, with a mix of nostalgia and fresh storylines that kept fans on the edge of their seats. The night ended with a sense of anticipation, as the fallout from the event promises to deliver even more action in the coming weeks. From intense rivalries to historic title wins, this edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event proved WWE is ready to make its return to primetime a regular occurrence.
