The last WWE special for the year is Saturday Night’s Main Event taking place in New York.
The first Pay-per-view 2025 is New Year’s Evil for NXT. The date still needs to be confirmed.
The WWE’s first pay-per-view of 2025 will be Royal Rumble in Indianapolis.
Happy 37th Birthday to Naomi.
**The Opening Match is the Women’s War Games match featuring Rhea Ripley. Team Rhea, consisting of Bianca Belair, Iyo Sky, Naomi, Bayley, and Rhea herself, faces Team Liv, which includes Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, Nia Jax, Tiffany Stratton, and Candice LaRae. Rhea’s team has the advantage going into this match
**MATCH 2 — The United States Championship was at stake as L.A. Knight defended his title against Shinsuke Nakamura. Nakamura made a triumphant return with a complete rebranding that is quite intimidating. He successfully got inside Knight’s head, disrupting his game plan. I was hoping for a better match from Knight, but ultimately, this was the one title change, with Shinsuke coming out on top (and there was no black mist involved). I’m not entirely sure why the title changed hands, but I’ll be waiting to see what’s next for Knight after this defeat.
**MATCH 3 — Triple Threat Match for the Intercontentional Title between Braun Brekker, Sheamus, Ludwig Kaiser and Braun Brekker. This match could have gone anyway. With triple threats, anything and everything is legal. Each has their own moments in the spotlight. With the devastating spear taking out Sheamus, Braun is successful in the title defence. I.M.O I can’t see Sheamus being around too much longer, within the next 5 years to retire.
**MATCH 4 — Damien Priest faced Gunther in a title match. Gunther has been off his game lately and is starting to question himself. Damien has been pushing him into unfamiliar territory. The match was solid, and I didn’t expect a title change to happen this time. However, Finn Balor interfered to ensure that Damien lost the match. I feel like this sets the stage for a feud between Damien and Finn. To be honest, Judgment Day is getting stale and needs a fresh start; they’re becoming boring.
**MATCH 5 — Men’s War Games Match**
I have a feeling that this storyline is not over with by a long shot.
