Jesse “The Body” Ventura is returning to WWE for the rebooted Saturday Night’s Main Event, promising fans a nostalgic experience.
Speaking on The Bill Simmons Podcast, Ventura revealed that the show will embrace a retro aesthetic, replicating the classic look, graphics, and presentation of the original program.
Ventura highlighted the throwback elements, including wrestler entrances through the crowd rather than modern ramps with elaborate lighting. He described the show as a “time capsule” and announced it will air quarterly.
Here’s what Ventura said:
“The whole show is going to be a throwback. That means it’s going to look like it did before, the graphics, everything. The wrestlers are not coming down that ramp. They’re not coming with all the lights and spectacular.
They’re coming in through the crowd like the old days. That’s why they brought me back. We’re going back in the time capsule. It’s going to be four times a year.”
