It seems somewhat odd that the commentators for a heavily promoted series like Saturday Night’s Main Event would not be completely locked down the night before it is scheduled to air on NBC, but perhaps Punk is just trying to keep some mystery alive.After a hiatus of more than 16 years, Saturday Night’s Main Event is set to make its long-awaited return to television. Originally a highlight of the 1980s, the iconic WWE special will now air multiple times throughout the year, with four episodes already confirmed for 2025.The revival promises to bring back many legendary WWE Superstars, with Jesse “The Body” Ventura confirmed to appear. Speculation also surrounds potential returns by other fan favorites, including Jimmy Hart, Greg Valentine, and Tito Santana, though Ted DiBiase has announced that he will no longer be attending.The most thrilling possibility for fans, however, is the return of Charlotte Flair. The most decorated female wrestler in WWE history, Flair has been sidelined since November 2023. Rumors are circulating that she could make her comeback as early as this Saturday, adding even more excitement to the show’s return.More News: WWE Hall of Famer Cancels Appearance on Saturday Night’s Main EventWhile it is unknown whether Punk will actually show up tomorrow for the event alongside the former governor of Minnesota, he has been confirmed to appear on Raw on Monday.
