We are just a few hours away from another edition of WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event. The special event will take place in Salt Lake City, Utah.
The official promotional poster for the event features CM Punk. The Second City Saint is set to lock horns with Jey Uso in a match for the vacant World Heavyweight Championship. In this article, let’s look at four potential endings to SNME XLI.
#4. CM Punk might end the show as the new World Heavyweight Champion
CM Punk vs. Jey Uso will crown a new World Heavyweight Champion. The Voice of the Voiceless has had a stellar run on RAW since last year. Meanwhile, Jey Uso captured the world title for the first time at this year’s WrestleMania. Jey held the gold for 51 days, but Punk’s championship reign ended in minutes. Hence, Punk is expected to secure the title tonight.
As of this writing, SNME’s main event has yet to be confirmed. But if Punk vs. Jey headlines the show, The Second City Saint might emerge as the new World Heavyweight Champion.
#3. Cody Rhodes could retain the Undisputed WWE Title
Cody Rhodes will defend his Undisputed WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre at SNME. Previously, Rhodes defeated the Scotsman at Wrestlepalooza. This time, McIntyre will look to finally avenge the loss and dethrone The American Nightmare.
While the odds are stacked against Rhodes, he could still retain his gold. If The American Nightmare vs. The Scottish Warrior headlines Saturday Night’s Main Event, Cody Rhodes might retain the title and move on to the next big storyline.
#2. Randy Orton might return to betray Cody Rhodes
Randy Orton has been notably absent from SmackDown. He has not been part of a significant storyline for a while, but many fans are speculating that The Viper might return at SNME to shock the world.
The Apex Predator is expected to turn heel and kick off a feud with Cody Rhodes for months. Saturday Night’s Main Event seems like the perfect spot to execute Orton’s much-awaited heel turn. The Legend Killer might return at the special event and pretend to help Rhodes before betraying him.
In the show’s final moments, Orton could backstab Rhodes to set up an Undisputed WWE Title match at a major premium live event.
#1. Drew McIntyre could finally win the world title
If Triple H wants to surprise fans at Saturday Night’s Main Event, he could book Drew McIntyre to dethrone Cody Rhodes as the Undisputed WWE Champion. Over the past few months, McIntyre has suffered losses in several big showdowns. Now, the company could finally crown him as the new titleholder and reward him for his hard work.
The World Tag Team and United States titles recently changed hands, shocking fans. Triple H could now book an unexpected end to the world title match at SNME and crown McIntyre champion.
