My Official Thoughts on WWE Saturday Night's Main Event:
My Official Thoughts: A very fun show, I enjoyed three of the matches from the card. I wish they could've gone with the four-match system for Saturday Night's Main Event because we saw one match not even hit over five minutes, and it was the match I was very much excited for, but this show was fun. So far, both Saturday Night's Main Events this year have been enjoyable for me as a viewer. The only issue I had was the DQ Finish for Becky Lynch & Sol Ruca, also that Women's Tag Team Title Match. Ethan Page & Penta was super fun, the WWE World Tag Team Title Match was entertaining, and the Six-Women Tag Team Match was very fun to watch as everyone shone in that match. Now we head to Clash In Italy as the Card looks very good hope they can add one more match, which is a Six-Man Tag Team Match with Seth Rollins & The Street Profits vs. The Vision, which would make for a great undercard match. But a solid event, and I very much enjoyed it.
WWE Saturday Night's Main Event: My Official Match Ratings:
The Opening Match: B-Fab, Jade Cargill & Michin vs. Alexa Bliss, Charlotte Flair & Rhea Ripley in a Six-Women Tag Team Match | The Match Rating: ***.75— A very fun Six-Women Tag Team Match, very happy this was given a lot of time for everyone in this match to shine. It was obvious that Jade Cargill needed to get the win, to add some momentum for her, as they will Clash In Italy for the WWE Women's Title. But I liked how B-Fab looked in this match. Michin looked great. Alexa Bliss & Charlotte Flair were bad-ass in this match, loved how they added the fact that Charlotte Flair & Rhea Ripley don't see eye-to-eye. But this was a lot of fun, the ending sequence with how everyone was buddy-buddy, but Jade Cargill capitalized with the win, and I really like how this got sixteen minutes. Very fun match, I knew this was going to be very fun.
The 2nd Match: Sol Ruca vs. Becky Lynch in a Non-Title Match | The Match Rating: N/A — This stinks, because of how WWE Creative is, they put this match together with a solid build. I was very excited for this match because I expected this to be a show-stealer, but WWE always has to protect, and never has someone gotten a clean win. This match ended with the referee getting caught in a botch, I believe, with Sol Ruca getting the win. But Becky Lynch, who’s irate, came back in the ring and gave Sol Ruca a beat-down as she was frustrated with what occurred. I honestly don’t get why book this match if this was the finish, could’ve done this match at Clash In Italy. Also, knowing you have two hours, why put five matches? Just keep it at four and allow this match to have ten to twelve minutes. WWE Creative is really the weakest point of this Company. They don’t care whatsoever. The fire and desire ended in 2025; now they give us uninspired slop.
The 3rd Match: Penta (c) vs. Ethan Page in a WWE Intercontinental Title Match | The Match Rating: ****.25 — What an amazing match, I mean wow this was a great WWE Intercontinental Title Defense have to give my flowers to Ethan Poge and Penta they went out their and had a marvelous performance I really enjoyed this match there was so many near-falls it was very unpredictable I thought Ethan Page was going to pull away when he exposed the turnbuckle as he got Penta with the buckle but Penta kickout to hit the Mexican Destroyer to get the win this was an amazing title defense. Ethan Page is a future champion on the Main Roster, and Penta has been a great WWE Intercontinental Champion. I’m really happy they got a lot of time and gave us a great match.
The 4th Match: Brie Bella & Paige (c) vs. The Irresistible Forces (Lash Legend & Nia Jax) in a WWE Women’s Tag Team Title Match | The Match Rating: *.75 — This match was something. I felt like this match wasn't needed for this show because I genuinely thought this would've been fine on the go-home SmackDown in Spain. But this match was a filler match for me; I had no interest outside of watching Lash Legend, who I'm extremely high on. But this match, I wanted Lash Legend & Nia Jax to win, but we saw the ending as Brie Bella & Paige retained. I do think their reign has been awful from a match standpoint, as they haven't had a notable match yet. But I do believe Bayley & Lyra Valkyria will be the ones to take those titles away from Brie Bella & Paige eventually, when it's time for them to lose the belts.
The Main Event Match: The Vision (Austin Theory & Logan Paul) (with Paul Heyman) (c) vs. The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford) in a WWE World Tag Team Title Match | The Match Rating: ***.50 — This wasn't a bad match because this was a very fun WWE World Tag Team Title Defense, but man why couldn't the Street Profits just win the WWE World Tag Team Titles? I just don't get it. Just a simple decision, but The Vision came out on top. With help from Bron Breakker & Paul Heyman. But what this kinda shows is that The Street Profits do need Seth Rollins by their sides. Because of what just transpired at the end, even after the match being over, we saw how The Vision's Bron Breakker went to lay out Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford once again as The Vision stood tall to close out Saturday Night's Main Event. I really hope The Street Profits & Seth Rollins vs. The Vision could happen at Clash In Italy, but Triple H has some weird thing for only five matches per card.
WWE Saturday Night's Main Event: My Match of the Night: Penta (c) vs. Ethan Page in a WWE Intercontinental Title Match | The Match Rating: ****.25 — What an incredible match! I have to commend Ethan Page and Penta for their fantastic performance in this WWE Intercontinental Title defense. I really enjoyed it, especially the many near-falls that kept the outcome unpredictable. I thought Ethan Page might have secured the victory when he exposed the turnbuckle and used it on Penta, but Penta kicked out and then hit the Mexican Destroyer to win. This was an outstanding title defense. Ethan Page is definitely a future main roster champion, and Penta has proven to be a great WWE Intercontinental Champion. I’m glad they had enough time to deliver such an exciting match.
WWE Saturday Night's Main Event: My Official Event Grade: 7/10 (B-) — A very fun show with three standout matches. I still prefer the four-match format, especially since one match I was excited for didn’t even hit five minutes. Both Saturday Night’s Main Events this year have been enjoyable overall. My only real complaint was the DQ finish for Becky Lynch & Sol Ruca and the Women’s Tag Team Title Match. Ethan Page vs. Penta, the WWE World Tag Team Title Match, and the Six-Women Tag were all very entertaining. Clash in Italy already has a strong card, and a Six-Man Tag with Seth Rollins & The Street Profits vs. The Vision would be a great undercard addition. Overall, a solid event.
