• 19-Year Return Set For MSG
WWE is planning another televised event at Madison Square Garden this year. According to WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select, Saturday Night’s Main Event is scheduled for July 18 in the world’s most famous arena.
It’s actually a historic night for a few reasons. This will be only the second time in history that a Saturday Night’s Main Event has been held at MSG. The only other time was 19 years ago in 2007.
While the 2007 event was taped, this July show will be the first-ever live broadcast of the special from this iconic venue.
The event is perfectly timed to coincide with Fanatics Fest NYC, a giant sports fan festival happening at the Javits Center that same weekend. WWE is heavily involved in the fest, so fans can expect a lot of crossover and superstar appearances all over the city.
Next week’s RAW is also set to take place at MSG.

• Tama Tonga Breaks Silence After 5-Figure WWE Fine
Tama Tonga was recently fined by WWE after posting a rehearsal video on TikTok, which goes against company policy. The fine was said to be in the five-figure range.
The former WWE Tag Team Champion addressed the situation during a TikTok live session today, making it clear he wasn’t letting the situation affect him. Tonga kept things light, saying he took the hit in stride and isn’t too concerned about being in trouble.
“It’s all good. Had to go to my happy place after that shenanigans. Had to go to the world’s happiest place to get myself smiling again.
Nah, I’ve been smiling. I think that’s the biggest thing – when you get hit with something, you just take the hit and keep on moving. Can’t let that bring you down, you’ve just gotta keep on moving. Am I in the doghouse? I’ve been in the doghouse my whole life! No getting out of the doghouse. I move in life like I’m in the doghouse always, because I don’t give a rat’s.”
After the live session, Tonga tweeted the following:
“Thanks for joining the live.
As addressed, yes I was fined – deserved.
I knew better- a careless mistake. -Lesson learned.
Take the hit and move on.
Back to work.”
