Gather round, folks, because it looks like Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Long Island will soon become the latest victim of wrestling-induced property damage. Cody Rhodes, the dashing purveyor of sleeveless suits and pyro budgets, is set to square off with Kevin Owens, the man whose catchphrase might as well be “Jump first, apologize never.” Their long-simmering feud is heading straight for Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 14, and we’re here for every dramatic elbow drop of it.
A Bad Blood Saga: Randy Orton’s Neck and Your Emotions Aren’t Safe
This whole mess started at Bad Blood when Rhodes and Roman Reigns (because, why not?) took down Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu. But instead of basking in victory and inspirational speeches about finishing stories, Cody found himself ambushed by Owens. Randy Orton tried to play mediator, but instead got an express ticket to a chiropractor after a banned piledriver left him sidelined. Cody, like the responsible friend he is, decided it was time to channel his vengeance into the art form we call professional wrestling.
Will the Title Be on the Line? Nobody Knows, But Everyone Cares
While the Undisputed WWE Championship might not officially be up for grabs, one thing is certain: Cody’s moral high ground and Kevin Owens’ infinite grudge-holding abilities will both be tested. It’s worth noting that this isn’t their first rodeo. Their match back at Bash in Berlin was a barnburner, and expectations are sky-high for their Long Island rematch.
Adding more intrigue, the finals of the inaugural WWE United States Women’s Championship will also take place at this event. Bayley and Chelsea Green have clawed their way to the semi-finals, and now they’re poised to deliver the kind of drama usually reserved for soap operas and reality TV.
Final Word: Pyro, Piledrivers, and a Crowd with Questionable Sportsmanship
Will Cody Rhodes prevail? Will Kevin Owens finally get the vindication he’s been wrestling his way toward? Will Nassau Coliseum’s janitorial staff ever forgive WWE for the mess they’re about to make? Tune in on December 14 to find out.
