WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event special on December 14 at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum will feature a retro theme honoring the inaugural event held at the same venue.
The show promises a star-studded card and appearances by legends like Jesse Ventura and Jimmy Hart. Speculation has arisen about Hulk Hogan’s potential involvement due to his historic connection to the event, with reports suggesting WWE has discussed bringing Hogan and other legends to the show.
According to WrestleVotes, Hulk Hogan, ‘Cowboy’ Bob Orton and Wendi Richter are expected to appear as well:
“We are also hearing that a source has confirmed to us that WWE has had initial discussions about bringing in specific legends to Saturday Night’s Main Event that will pay homage to the first ever Saturday Night’s Main Event episode, which took place in the same exact arena they will be at next Saturday night on Long Island close to 40 years ago. That first show took place on May 10, 1985.
Specifically, we are hearing those names could include former WWF Women’s Champion Wendi Richter, who defeated the Fabulous Moolah that night, along with bringing in the two participants from the WWF Championship match that evening, which saw the immortal Hulk Hogan defeat ‘Cowboy’ Bob Orton.
It’s worth noting that Jimmy Hart is already booked for this show, as was reported elsewhere, which could indeed signal that the Hulkster isn’t that far behind. We are hearing that WWE has discussed calling in specific legends, not just the same old (names).”
So far, WWE has announced the following matches for this event:
– Undisputed WWE Championship Match: Cody Rhodes (c) vs. Kevin Owens
– World Heavyweight Championship Match: Gunther (c) vs. World Tag Team Champion Finn Balor
– Women’s World Championship Match: Liv Morgan (c) vs. IYO SKY
– Final Of The Women’s United States Championship Tournament: TBD vs. TBD
According to WrestleTix, WWE has sold 12,396 tickets so far.
