The much-anticipated return of WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event delivered a dramatic conclusion, with Cody Rhodes defending his Undisputed WWE Championship against Kevin Owens in a chaotic and action-packed match.
As reported by Mike Tedesco in his live coverage, the main event saw Cody Rhodes successfully retain his Undisputed WWE Championship after a chaotic series of events. The match included interference from a steel chair, which Owens had introduced into the ring, but it was Rhodes who ultimately emerged victorious.
However, the true chaos occurred after the show went off the air. With Cody Rhodes celebrating his win in the ring, Kevin Owens struck out of nowhere, blindsiding the champion with a devastating package piledriver — a move Owens had not used in WWE for years, a throwback to his time in ROH and on the independent circuit.
Owens Takes the Winged Eagle Title
Following his brutal attack, Owens took the Winged Eagle Championship, which Rhodes had brought to the match, and made his way to the stage. He was confronted by Triple H, leading to a tense confrontation that quickly escalated into a shoving match between the two. WWE’s chief content officer, Triple H, walked away after the exchange, leaving the situation unresolved.
The Aftermath: Rhodes Taken Out on a Stretcher
As Cody Rhodes laid motionless in the ring after the piledriver, medical personnel quickly rushed to his aid. He was stretchered out of the ring, resembling a scene eerily similar to what Randy Orton experienced the previous month at the hands of Owens. Owens, however, wasn’t finished. He taunted the stretcher-bound Rhodes by standing on top of him and holding the Winged Eagle Championship aloft, a nod to the belt’s historical significance in WWE, as it was used from 1988 to 1998.
A Heated Confrontation with Triple H
Though Owens was escorted backstage following his brutal attack, he reappeared on the entrance ramp, where a heated altercation with Triple H took place. The two men squared off, shoving each other before referees intervened to prevent the situation from escalating any further. The segment ended with Cody Rhodes being taken to an ambulance, leaving a concerned and furious Triple H looking on from the sidelines.
Kevin Owens Explains His Actions
Following the brutal attack on Rhodes, Kevin Owens later explained his actions during a backstage interview. Although his motives remain somewhat unclear, it’s evident that Owens is not done with Rhodes, and their rivalry is far from over.
