This weekend, WWE brings Saturday Night’s Main Event to the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Unlike recent editions, this card features five matches instead of the usual four, with three women’s bouts and multiple championships on the line—including the Intercontinental Title and two sets of tag belts.
Dud of the Night: Six-Woman Tag Chaos
The match pitting Rhea Ripley, Charlotte Flair, and Alexa Bliss against Jade Cargill, Michin, and B-Fab has fans scratching their heads. WWE has struggled to spotlight its top women’s titles since WrestleMania 42, and this bout feels more like filler than a meaningful storyline.
Ripley wasn’t even present when the match was booked, and her uneasy alliance with Flair continues to feel forced. Bliss inserting herself only adds tension, while newer stars like Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, Lainey Reid)—who’ve been drawing strong heel reactions—are left out entirely. The setup hints at future clashes, possibly Ripley vs. Cargill or Flair, but for now, the match feels flat.
Draw of the Night: Penta vs. Ethan Page
On the flip side, the Intercontinental Championship match between Penta and Ethan Page is shaping up to be the highlight. WWE documentaries have spotlighted both men—Paul Heyman praising Penta’s reign, and Shawn Michaels noting similarities between himself and Page.
Penta’s run as champion has been a pleasant surprise, while Page’s rise from AEW’s undercard to a key player in WWE NXT has been remarkable. Both are hungry, both deliver in big matches, and this showdown feels like a true showcase for the “workhorse title.” Regardless of who wins, the Intercontinental Championship is finally back in the spotlight where it belongs.
Final Take
Saturday Night’s Main Event may not always feel like a major WWE special, but this card offers a mix of frustration and excitement. The six‑woman tag feels like a missed opportunity, while Penta vs. Page reminds fans why the Intercontinental Title matters.
