This past Saturday, May 24th, WWE ran another one of their "Saturday Night's Main Event" specials. Lemme tell ya, these things are what they are, a glorified house show with some cameras, but hey, sometimes you get a nugget. The actual main event of the broadcast, the tippy-top of the show, was Jey Uso defending his World Heavyweight Championship against Logan Paul. Yeah, that Logan Paul. Mr. Social Media himself, still collecting belts and cashing checks in our beloved squared circle.Now, from what I'm seein', Jey Uso actually retained the title. So, "Main Event" Jey still got the gold around his waist, Uce. Logan Paul, well, he's probably already posted a video about how he was robbed or how he's the real champion of the internet or some garbage like that. Kid's got a knack for makin' noise, I'll give him that, even if it makes your ears bleed. The show also had other stuff, like Cena rasslin' R-Truth, which, okay, whatever that was. And a tag match with Punk and Zayn against Rollins and Bron Breakker where it looks like Bronson Reed showed up to cause a ruckus and align with Rollins and his crew. So, they're buildin' somethin' there, probably another faction nobody asked for, but hey, it's "content," right? But yeah, your main event, the one that closed the show, was Jey Uso keepin' that World Heavyweight strap away from Logan Paul. Make of that what you will, brother. It's wrestling in 2025.
