WWE

WWE is back in primetime this weekend with the latest installment of Saturday Night’s Main Event. After the monster success of the debut episode in December, the promotion hopes to replicate the feat with four matches scheduled to take place in San Antonio as well as an intense contract signing between friends turned rivals. 

Saturday Night’s Main Event was revived in December after a 16-year absence from WWE programming. The revival is part of a quarterly deal between WWE and NBC to bring the show to prime time. This weekend’s main event is expected to be Jey Uso challenging “The Ring General” Gunther for the world heavyweight title. Uso’s relatives Jacob Fatu and Nia Jax are also on the card.

The card will also see Bron Breakker look to defend his intercontinental title against Sheamus as the Irishman looks to claim the lone title that has eluded him in his storied career. Plus, Ripley takes on Nia Jax after Jax viciously attacked her on Monday Night Raw earlier in the week.

Look below at the confirmed Saturday Night’s Main Event matches. Saturday Night’s Main Event airs live on NBC and Peacock on Jan. 25 with the main card starting at 8 p.m. ET.

2025 WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event matches

World Heavyweight Championship — Gunther (c) vs. Jey Uso: The build to this world title program is straightforward. Uso challenged Gunther and Gunther accepted. Gunther repeatedly downplayed Uso’s merits as a title challenger, but Uso sent Gunther reeling during a brawl on the Jan. 20 episode of WWE Raw.

Intercontinental Championship — Bron Breakker (c) vs. Sheamus: Sheamus is a surefire WWE Hall of Famer, but there’s one accolade hanging over his head. Sheamus has never won the intercontinental title and has fallen short for years. Breakker suggested it’s time for Sheamus to retire, but “The Celtic Warrior” has no intention to do so before collecting his final prize.

Braun Strowman vs. Jacob Fatu: Strowman crossed paths with The Bloodline soon after returning from injury. Strowman has loosely aligned himself with LA Knight and Sami Zayn to take on The Bloodline. At Saturday Night’s Main Event, behemoths Strowman and Fatu battle.

Women’s World Championship — Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Nia Jax: Jax attacked Ripley at the beginning of Monday Night Raw on Jan. 20. Ripley bounced back later that night and put hands on her rival. A fighting champion, Ripley challenged Jax with Ripley’s title on the line.

Undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens contract signing: While it won’t be a match, there’s sure to be fireworks when the two are in the ring on Saturday night. Shawn Michaels will serve as mediator as the two sign on for their ladder match at the Royal Rumble. Every time these two have seen each other has resulted in some sort of brawl. The key hook to Saturday night is that Micheals is charged with collecting both the undisputed WWE title and the retired Winged Eagle title from both men. Be on the look out for some wildness to close the show.

Langley RCMP break up ‘unruly’ crowd of 200 young people at illegal street racing event


Police in Langley, B.C., say they had to use pepper spray and a Taser as they dealt with an “unruly” crowd of young people at an illegal street racing event in the city Friday night. 

Langley RCMP say an officer responding to a call on Gloucester Way arrived to find a crowd of around 200 young people allegedly in the area to “participate in illegal street racing and stunting.”  

Mounties say the officer wrote violation tickets and was having a vehicle towed when the crowd allegedly “became unruly.” Police allege a 16-year-old male tried to obstruct the officer, who had also called for backup. 

Police say officers had to use a Taser on the teen, and that a group of young people then allegedly tried to interfere with his arrest, leading to officers using pepper spray to disperse the crowd. 

They say people in the crowd managed to free the suspect from a police vehicle, but he was later found by a police dog, and is now up on charges for allegedly assaulting an officer.

Township of Langley Mayor Eric Woodward said street racing remains a persistent issue in the community and called the incident “very unfortunate.”

“No RCMP officer should be interfered with or obstructed in this manner,” he wrote in a statement to CBC News. “We support the RCMP in their ongoing efforts to address it.”

The mayor added that the township initiated traffic calming measures in Gloucester Industrial Estates last September to address the problem, which he says endangers truckers and workers operating overnight.

Supt. Harm Dosange, who heads the Langley RCMP detachment, says the altercation was “deeply troubling” and that there will be more police patrols and traffic enforcement in the area because street racers pose a “significant risk” to the public and police. 



Langley RCMP had their hands full over the weekend as they were called to break up an ‘unruly’ crowd of 200 young people at an illegal street racing event.

The event, which took place in a secluded area of Langley, quickly spiraled out of control as participants began engaging in dangerous stunts and driving recklessly. Concerned residents in the area notified authorities, prompting a swift response from the RCMP.

Upon arrival, officers were met with resistance from the crowd, who refused to disperse and continued their reckless behavior. Police were forced to use pepper spray and physical force to break up the gathering and restore order.

Several individuals were arrested for various offenses, including reckless driving and public intoxication. The RCMP has issued a warning to anyone considering participating in illegal street racing events, emphasizing the dangers posed to both participants and the public.

Residents are urged to report any suspicious activity to the authorities and to avoid engaging in or attending illegal street racing events. The safety of the community is paramount, and the RCMP will continue to take swift action to ensure the well-being of all residents.

Weight Tossed in Indoor Hammer Throw Event Kills Spectator at Track Meet


A heavy weight thrown by a participant at an indoor high school track meet cleared safety barriers and struck and killed a spectator in Colorado Springs on Sunday, the event organizers said.

“A member of the attending audience was killed when a hammer thrown by a participant cleared certified barriers and struck him,” said a statement from the University of Colorado Colorado Springs, which hosted the meet at its Mountain Lion Fieldhouse.

The meet was canceled after the incident.

A spokeswoman for the El Paso County coroner’s office said on Monday that it had not performed an autopsy and could not yet release the name of the person who was killed.

The Colorado United Track Club said in an email reported by 11 News and other local news media that the victim was the father of one of its team members.

In the more familiar hammer throw, contested outdoors at events like the Olympics, competitors spin around in a circle to build momentum and then release a heavy ball on a chain, which is known as a hammer.

For safety, the spinning takes place in a cage with an open segment for the hammer to go through when it is released.

At indoor meets like the one in Colorado Springs, the event is normally renamed the weight throw.

The implement is attached to a grip, rather than a chain, and is heavier than the hammer so that it does not travel as far. As in the hammer competition, the thrower is within a cage or netting.

At the Olympic Games, men can throw the hammer well over 200 feet. High school boys typically throw a 25-pound weight indoors, but they can still throw it quite a distance: The record for that age group is currently more than 90 feet.

Hammer and other throwing events can be dangerous, and cases of injury to competitors, officials and spectators are not rare.

As recently as September, a teenager was critically injured by a hammer at a meet in Australia.

Javelins can be thrown even farther than hammers, and their sharp tips also contribute to the danger. Even at the sport’s highest levels, disaster can occur.

In 2008, at the Golden League in Rome, the top level of the professional sport, a javelin thrown by an elite athlete struck a long jumper, Salim Sdiri of France, causing severe internal injuries.



In a tragic turn of events at a track meet, a spectator was killed by a weight tossed in the indoor hammer throw event. The incident occurred during a competition when the weight, which can weigh up to 35 pounds, flew out of the designated throwing area and struck a spectator in the stands.

Emergency services were immediately called to the scene, but unfortunately, the spectator succumbed to their injuries. The athlete involved in the throw was said to be devastated by the accident and is cooperating with authorities in the investigation.

This heartbreaking incident serves as a stark reminder of the dangers present in track and field events, even for spectators. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of the victim during this difficult time. Safety measures and precautions must be strictly enforced to prevent such tragedies from occurring in the future.

UFC Vet Ben Rothwell Says BKFC Co-Main Event ‘More about the Belt’ than the Money


Ben Rothwell knows what’s on the line with another win in the BKFC.

Following a 13-year run in the UFC against MMA’s best heavyweights, “Big” Ben got his big break in bareknuckle boxing, stringing together three-straight stoppage wins for a shot at the title.

Rothwell meets champ Mick Terrill (9-1) in the co-main event of KnuckleMania 5 to decide who’s the baddest man on the planet… at least, in this resurgent sport.

UFC Vet Ben Rothwell Says BKFC Champ Mick Terrill Hasn’t Faced Anything – ‘I Have’

The one and only title fight on the BKFC card this Saturday, the longtime UFC heavyweight says he’s getting “compensated” – though, it’s not the money Rothwell is fighting for.

“This fight is actually more about the belt than it is about the money,” Rothwell told MMA Knockout. “There’s a whole bunch I’m not gonna get into… I’m being compensated, but this is about the belt.”

Rothwell never went on to challenge for gold when he was in the UFC. Once on a four-fight tear through the division, Rothwell’s title dreams were halted by former champ Junior dos Santos in a title eliminator back in 2016 – dos Santos going on to a title fight vs. Stipe Miocic following the win.

Almost a decade later and a different sport altogether, Rothwell finally has the opportunity to take home a world title. 

“I’m honored, I’m privileged,” Rothwell said of fighting for the BKFC heavyweight strap.“This is David Feldman’s home city. This is his hometown, home state. They denied the BKFC for many years…Taking this thing to a place that people only dreamed about a few years ago and now look at it, and we’re going on this card.”

Knuckle Mania V marks the BKFC’s first event in Philadelphia, a potential home plate for the promotion in the years to come, and Rothwell is very happy to go to bat.

KnuckleMania V Preview: Eddie Alvarez vs. Jeremy Stephens Tops BKFC Tripleheader

“For me to be on this card, that alone is a big commitment to me. I’m honored and I really wanna perform, but on top of it, I get to fight for the BKFC heavyweight title. Cherry on top. I wanna be their champ. They’ve known it since I came.”

“I didn’t wanna just come in, I wanted to come take over because I believe I can be a champ in the heavyweight division that they’ve long been waiting for. And for me, it’s a world title, it’s something. It could open up a lot of doors.”

In a recent interview, UFC veteran Ben Rothwell shared his thoughts on his upcoming Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship co-main event fight. Rothwell, who will be facing off against a tough opponent in the BKFC ring, emphasized that for him, the fight is more about the belt than the money.

Despite the potentially lucrative financial opportunities that come with competing in bare-knuckle fighting, Rothwell explained that his main motivation for stepping into the ring is to prove himself as a worthy contender for the BKFC title. He emphasized that winning the belt would mean more to him than any monetary reward.

Rothwell’s dedication to his craft and his focus on achieving greatness in the sport of bare-knuckle fighting is evident in his words. Fans can expect a fierce and determined performance from Rothwell in the co-main event, as he looks to make a statement and solidify his place as one of the top fighters in the BKFC.

Mark Henry On How He Would Have Booked AEW Dynamite’s Main Event


Jon Moxley defeated Powerhouse Hobbs to retain the AEW World Title on this week’s Dynamite, and Mark Henry says he would have booked the match slightly differently. Henry weighed in on Wednesday’s main event match on Busted Open Radio and you can see the highlights below (per Wrestling Inc):

On how he would have laid it out: “If I was going to structure the match, I would’ve had Hobbs not get jumped. I would’ve had him go at Claudio. I’d have had him go at them guys and then in the process when he came in, the referee is getting everybody back and Marina throws the briefcase, he gets hits, briefcase slides, Moxley hits him with the finish and then you get a better finish.”

On the importance of booking good stories around the matches: “[For example,] I love how fast Darby [Allin] moves and how interesting his look is. But, if you don’t put a good story around Darby, it looks like, ‘Why did he bump off of that thing he did jumping backwards?’”





In a recent interview with Wrestling Inc., WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry shared his thoughts on how he would have booked the main event of AEW Dynamite.

Henry praised the current AEW roster for their talent and dedication to the craft, but he also offered some insight on how he would have approached booking the main event.

According to Henry, he would have focused on building up the storyline leading to the main event, putting emphasis on the personal rivalries and conflicts between the competitors. He also mentioned that he would have utilized more backstage segments and promos to further develop the characters and add depth to the storyline.

Henry emphasized the importance of creating a compelling narrative that would keep the audience engaged and invested in the match. He also stressed the significance of giving each wrestler their own time to shine and showcase their skills in the ring.

Overall, Mark Henry’s approach to booking AEW Dynamite’s main event would have been centered around storytelling, character development, and giving each wrestler the opportunity to showcase their talents. It’s clear that Henry’s experience and insight would have added a unique perspective to the creative process behind the show.

Triple H may have subtly spoiled the result of a major world title match at Saturday Night’s Main Event


WWE icon Triple H plays an important role in the Stamford-based promotion. He is the company’s CCO and supervises all creative decisions. The Game and the entire creative team have been working tirelessly to build the upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event card. However, it seems the 14-time World Champion may have spoiled the result of a major title bout.

Fans are just hours away from the second edition of the revived SNME. Spectators are very excited about the event, as the match card is extremely stacked and promises to be a night to remember.

Triple H has seemingly leaked the result of the Women’s World Championship match

Rhea Ripley defeated Liv Morgan on RAW’s debut on Netflix and captured the Women’s World Championship that she technically never lost. The Nightmare will be defending her title at SNME against Nia Jax.

Corey Graves deleted his Tweet! More details HERE.

The latest episode of SmackDown saw Nia Jax confronting Rhea Ripley and Tiffany Stratton, where she expressed that she would conquer The Nightmare and capture the Women’s World title at SNME. She previously announced herself for the traditional Women’s 2025 Royal Rumble match.

As a result, Triple H may have subtly revealed that Nia Jax will lose the match against Rhea Ripley, and continue her stint on the blue brand, ultimately entering the Women’s Rumble.

SmackDown can’t have two champions

Tiffany Stratton is the reigning WWE Women’s Champion, having captured the title after cashing in her Money in the Bank briefcase on Nia Jax. Although Jax has challenged Rhea Ripley and has made some appearances on RAW, she is still part of the blue brand.

Nia Jax’s official WWE page still features her under the Friday Night SmackDown brand. Since the two shows don’t usually have two major women’s champions; it could be seen as another hint dropped by Triple H that The Irresistible Force might potentially lose her title bout against Mami.

Nia Jax has less competition as the champion

Nia Jax recently had an illustrious run as a champion, where she managed to establish herself as a top heel superstar. However, as a Women’s Champion, she is definitely out of competition when compared to Tiffany Stratton and Rhea Ripley.

Tiffany is rumored to face Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 41, and recent reports suggest that Bianca Belair has been heavily pitched as Ripley’s ‘Mania opponent. Jax does not have much competition in store to carry the title to WrestleMania; she could embark on a new journey and chase the tag team titles.

That said, the proposed angles above are speculative and it remains to be seen how Triple H and the creative team will book the women’s division with WrestleMania 41 on the horizon.
