The Winged Eagle WWE championship is returning for one night
only at Saturday Night’s Main Event this weekend.
A video on social media showed Triple H talking to Cody
Rhodes, gifting him a large Pelican case.
“We keep talking about Saturday Night’s Main Event. You
know, the whole theme of that thing is going to be retro,”
Triple H told Cody. “Jesse Ventura’s going to be there. Long
Island, New York, Nassau Coliseum. With that in mind, got
something for you. Understand this…one night only, alright?”
Cody agrees and Triple H taps on the case. Cody opens it up
and a golden glow comes out of it as Cody smiles, closes it,
and walks away with it.
The much-beloved title was used between 1988 and 1998 and is
considered to be the most popular WWE title design in the
history of the company.
Cody has in the past tried to bring it back and warned fans
not to get mad at him if it does not happen.
Saturday Night’s Main Event is set to be a retro
presentation, without the use of many lights and video
screens.
