A Night of History and Farewells at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event 2025
July 12 will be a landmark day for wrestling fans. WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event 2025 promises intense action and an unforgettable farewell. After 28 years in the ring, Bill Goldberg is preparing to say goodbye to professional wrestling. He will do it in the most dramatic way possible as he challenges the reigning World Heavyweight Champion, Gunther, in a career-ending match. The bout takes place in Atlanta, a city full of symbolism in Goldberg’s legacy and a place that once served as the heart of WCW.
The seeds for this clash were planted months ago at the Bad Blood pay-per-view when Gunther taunted Goldberg, who was seated ringside. Now the two will finally collide in a generational showdown. For Gunther, it marks his first title defense since reclaiming the championship. For Goldberg, it is the last opportunity to close out his storied career with one final world title win.
Another highly anticipated matchup confirmed for the event features Seth Rollins and LA Knight. After repeated interference from Rollins’ allies Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed at Money in the Bank, Knight is eager for revenge. The rising star aims to prove that he belongs at the top and that Rollins has stood in his way long enough.
Though only two matches are officially announced, rumors are swirling about potential additions to the card. AJ Styles is expected to challenge Dominik Mysterio for the Intercontinental Championship, a match that was previously postponed due to an injury. The timing and setting of Saturday Night’s Main Event would make it an ideal venue for this long-awaited clash.
There is also growing tension between Bayley and Lyra Valkyria. Both competitors have been caught in a tangled web of conflict involving Becky Lynch. A recent title eliminator between Bayley and Valkyria ended without a winner, fueling speculation that a rematch could take place at this event and lead to a triple threat match at WWE Evolution.
The event will stream live on Peacock in the United States, with the main card starting at 8 PM ET. With legacy-defining matches, fierce rivalries and the final chapter of Goldberg’s career, WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event 2025 is shaping up to be a night that fans will never forget.
