WWE Cancels Multiple Saturday Night's Main Event Matches for May 24

WWE's Saturday Night's Main Event XXXIX is scheduled for May 24, 2025, at the Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida, featuring four announced matches including Jey Uso vs. Logan Paul for the World Heavyweight Championship, CM Punk and Sami Zayn vs. Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker, John Cena vs. R-Truth, and a Steel Cage Match between Damian Priest and Drew McIntyre. Several anticipated matches have been canceled or changed, such as the teased Roman Reigns teaming with CM Punk, which will not take place, likely due to Reigns' part-time schedule, with CM Punk instead teaming with Sami Zayn. The Memorial Day weekend WWE events in Tampa include Saturday Night's Main Event 39, NXT Battleground, and RAW, but the usually scheduled NXT TV tapings on May 27 at the Yuengling Center have been canceled after about 1,700 tickets were distributed, with no reason publicly given. Despite the NXT TV cancellation, the NXT Battleground event on May 25 remains confirmed, with a strong ticket sale surpassing 6,000, while Saturday Night's Main Event and RAW are approaching sellouts. WWE continues to build storylines around the upcoming events, including a potential six-man tag match stemming from recent rivalries and a triple-threat WWE Women’s Championship match involving Tiffany Stratton, Naomi, and Jade Cargill. These adjustments reflect WWE's dynamic scheduling and storyline developments as the company moves into a busy summer slate of events.
