Cody Rhodes returns, Seth Rollins gets his third man at table-setting WWE Saturday Night's Main Event
Cody Rhodes' post-WrestleMania hiatus is over, and WWE wasted no time setting up his next match Rhodes returned to WWE for the first time since losing the Undisputed WWE championship at WrestleMania 41 to save Jey Uso from an attack from new champion John Cena to close a newsworthy 'Saturday Night's Main Event' from Yuengling Center in Tampa, Fla. on Saturday night. Cena, after defeating R-Truth earlier in the night, teased in a segment with Uso of helping Logan Paul win the World Heavyweight champion because his career ending with the other world title in the hands of a YouTuber would 'ruin wrestling.' Advertisement Cena tried his best by pulling the ref out of the ring when Uso appeared to have the match won with a frog splash. Instead, Rhodes delivered a Cross Rhodes to Cena and allowed Uso to win with a spear to Paul — who missed a swing at the American Nightmare with his brass knuckles.

Cody Rhodes Returns At WWE Saturday Night's Main Event
Cody Rhodes is back, and he wants John Cena in the ring very soon. During the end to tonight's WWE Saturday Night's Main Event, Rhodes appeared during a chaotic match between Jey Uso and Logan Paul for Uso's WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Uso looked primed to win, but Cena appeared late and threw the ref out of the ring, then began attacking Uso. Advertisement Rhodes' music hit, and before the crowd could even react, the star was running down and into the ring. He made the save and threw Cena out, which allowed Uso to get the upper hand and retain his title in a win against Paul. After the match, Rhodes promptly took to the microphone. He said the Cena farewell tour has entered 'Rhodes country,' and he wants revenge. Rhodes then challenged Cena and Paul to a tag team match against he and Uso at Money in the Bank. The appearance was Rhodes' first since his loss to Cena at WrestleMania 41. It's unclear how much he'll appear going forward, however. WWE's Money in the Bank will take place on June 7, 2025, from the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California.

WWE Saturday Night Main Event Live: Check Full Match Card, Streaming Details
Last Updated: The WWE Saturday Night Main Event will see John Cena taking on R-Truth and Jey Uso putting his heavyweight championship title on the line. A World Heavyweight Championship clash and a Steel-Cage match, combined with legendary John Cena's non-title fight, mark the upcoming WWE Saturday Night Main Event on 24 May at the Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida. No changes have been made by the WWE to its original full match card for the event, starting at 5:30 am (Sunday) Indian Standard Time. Undisputed WWE champion John Cena's farewell tour continues to create interest with the addition of a non-title face-off with R-Truth. Speculation is rife as to why the Cena-Truth clash is a non-title affair. However, Cena's return to the main event full card is expected to cause great excitement among fans. The WWE has attempted to spice up the event by surprisingly setting up Truth against Cena despite the 53-year-old helping him retain the championship at Backlash. A World Heavyweight Championship match between Jey Uso and Logan Paul is also set to entertain fans at the WWE Saturday Night Main Event. The match allows Paul to bag his first world championship crown after enjoying recent WWE scraps against Uso. The 30-year-old decked Uso at Raw with his huge right hand and left the scene triumphant, making it the fourth time he has laid his opponent out. It should be an intense game as Uso puts his championship on the line. In another game, CM Punk will join hands with Sami Zayn to battle it out in a Tag Team match against Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker. The elements are combining well for what could be a clash full of chaotic scenes, leading to a potentially entertaining end with potential third-party interference from Uso. A Steel-Cage match between Damian Priest and Drew McIntyre rounds off the main event full card as the two stars prepare for another brutal match. Priest and McIntyre were involved in an intense game at WrestleMania 41, and the WWE has now attempted to reignite the spat for the fans.

WWE 'Raw': Jey Uso faces Bron Breakker, Logan Paul gets last laugh
May 20 (UPI) -- World Heavyweight Champion Jey Uso battled Bron Breakker and was confronted by Logan Paul on WWE Raw. Uso faced off against Breakker in a non-title match in the main event on Monday, which saw Breakker joined by The Wiseman Paul Heyman. Breakker, Heyman and their leader Seth Rollins continue to terrorize Raw as they attempt to take over WWE. Uso had his hands full with Breakker, who brought the fight to the champ using his arsenal of power moves. Uso stopped a Spear attempt by Breakker and nailed him with a Superkick, but it wasn't enough to win the match. Breakker later grabbed a chair as the referee was distracted by Heyman. Uso caught onto the plan and stopped Breakker once again with a Superkick. Heyman then grabbed Uso's leg to stop him from further attacking Breakker. Uso chased Heyman outside the ring with The Wiseman putting up his fists to fight. Rollins then made a surprise appearance and attacked Uso from behind, ending the match in a disqualification. Rollins and Breakker started to assault Uso until his best friend Sami Zayn rushed to his aide. Zayn was then joined by CM Punk, with the duo brawling with Rollins and Breakker all throughout the arena. As Uso recovered, he was suddenly knocked out by Logan Paul who delivered a big right-hand punch to the champ. Paul has now knocked out Uso multiple times, leading to their championship match on Saturday Night's Main Event, which broadcasts Saturday at 8 p.m. EDT on NBC and Peacock. Punk and Zayn will have a tag team match against Rollins and Breakker at Saturday Night's Main Event.

WWE Raw results, highlights (May 19): Seth Rollins, Gunther set sights on Jey Uso vs. Logan Paul winner
"WWE Raw" in Greenville, North Carolina, continued the road to Money In the Bank with triple-threat qualifier matches Monday while also gearing up the WWE Universe for Saturday Night's Main Event. The World Heavyweight Championship was the primary focus of this show, which is always nice to see. All the big storylines are beginning to intertwine nicely. Now it's just a matter of whether or not Jey Uso hangs onto the strap with all these challengers coming after him. Advertisement Let's break it down. World title turmoil The more WWE progresses with the World Heavyweight title situation, the more I want to see Logan Paul beat Jey Uso at Saturday Night's Main Event this weekend. Talk about a sentence I never thought I'd write. Aside from the appeal having a heel champion with mega heat like Paul, I have zero interest in running back Uso vs. Gunther so soon, which appears to be the plan. "The Ring General" is officially next, awaiting the winner, and he confronted Paul to start the show. Paul's "fact" promo was partially actual facts mixed in with opinions meant to insult Uso. It was a promo devoid of substance until Gunther arrived and sold me a ticket on a fresh rivalry. Paul came off fearful while the former champ hyped him up, stating how good for business Paul as champion would be. It was an overall nice touch to see Paul buy into it all before Gunther twisted the differences between them to business vs. personal, promising he'll destroy him in their match if Paul wins. Advertisement It ended with a tease and a surprise Uso super kick. That part was whatever, but I'll (partially) forgive the silly booking of a Gunther title shot off a Pat McAfee win if it's against a fresh face like Paul. Seeds were continuously planted on each side when Paul Heyman confronted Uso backstage, with Seth Rollins confronting Paul and Gunther separately. To end the night, there was the typical DQ predictability. Uso beat Breakker in a solid match until Rollins attacked Uso, and then, of course, Paul punched him again once everyone scattered. For a brief moment, it felt like we'd get the Sami Zayn turn once everything broke down, and CM Punk aided him in making the save for Uso. But WWE's creativity in 2025 really feels like it's hinging purely on those big viral moments. Obviously, The Rock's involvement with the John Cena heel turn comes immediately to mind. Qualifier Chaos As much as I miss the Money In the Bank ladder match at WrestleMania, I love qualifier season. The more triple threats the merrier, and after "WWE SmackDown" we got two more for the women's match, starting with Becky Lynch vs. Natalya vs. the new official main roster member, Roxanne Perez. Advertisement It's hard to shake the image of the Natalya we recently saw outside the WWE, especially when Michael Cole mentions it on commentary. Why can't she be that version in WWE? I wish we knew. She was a great foil to this matchup, allowing many fun triple spots like a double Pop-Rox and double sharpshooter. But it was all about seeing Perez and Lynch go at it — before Lyra Valkyria prevented the Lynch win. Perez eventually got the pin on Natalya, and the big push begins. As for the other match, it was Rhea Ripley vs. Kairi Sane vs. Zoey Stark before it effectively became a singles match because of a horrific injury to Stark. The former Pure Fusion Collective member landed terribly when going for the sniper missile drop kick that bent her knee in the wrong direction. I'll warn you now, don't watch if you're squeamish. We wish Stark a speedy recovery. This was the official return of Sane, which was great to see despite WWE completely downplaying it like nothing, and revealing on social media earlier in the day that she was back. The former tag team champion didn't miss a beat and hit some fun kick spots with Ripley before ultimately falling short to the Riptide. Advertisement There was zero chance that Ripley was losing the match, but I had a similar feeling to when Rey Fenix lost on "WWE SmackDown." Sane in the ladder match could have created a lot of wild moments. However, the long game here is clearly to get back to Ripley vs. Iyo Sky, and Ripley beating Sky's friend along the way is a good little wrinkle. It's currently Alexa Bliss, Perez and Ripley in the ladder match. Just with those three, I'm hyped for it. Bliss and Perez are the frontrunners of the three, as Ripley doesn't at all need the briefcase. Bliss or Perez would be phenomenal winners, but the Charlotte Flair thing continues to play out with Bliss. She's also a past winner. So Perez is easily the best candidate as the new kid on the block, and arguably will end up being the best option regardless of the final three additions. Interestingly enough, Finn Bálor recruited Perez into The Judgment Day after Ripley's win. If you needed any reinforcement in believing that Perez had a good chance of winning, there it is. 👍MONDAY NIGHT MONEY👍 1. Sheamus beat Grayson Waller in a surprisingly long but fun match. There were some pretty poor botches from Waller toward the end, but it was a good showcase for both. 👎RAW DEAL👎 1. Sorry, WWE. I couldn't care less about the NBA, and don't have a clue who Tyrese Haliburton is. Stop, please. Advertisement As for the announcement, Haliburton is getting added to the WWE 2K game. What a waste of airtime. 2. Another week without Rusev on "WWE Raw." Instead, he'll take on ... Akira Tozawa next week. There is no need to slow-build someone like Rusev. WWE has flopped the start of Rusev's return outside of the great Otis match. 👑 Uncrowned Gem of the Night 👑 The Greenville crowd was hot for Penta and AJ Styles vs. The Judgment Day, and rightfully so. All four of these guys meshed together greatly, which wasn't surprising. But JD McDonagh, in particular, has really won me over since his injury in The War Raiders match. I don't mean that because of the injury, but because he's felt like he's been treated like a more serious wrestler and is delivering in the ring. This match was no different. Advertisement Ultimately, your typical shenanigans cost a Judgment Day opponent a win when El Grande Americano headbutted Penta outside the ring. That led to a Bálor Coup de Grace. These recurring elements feel never-ending, but the match was solid, and McDonagh was the real star. 👑 I give this show a Crown score of: 7/10. 👑
