Dave Meltzer reported in the most recent Wrestling Observer Newsletter that, as of now, plans are in place for Jey Uso to defend the World Heavyweight Championship against Logan Paul at the next edition of WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event.
Of the plans for the show, which is currently advertising a John Cena appearance, Meltzer wrote:
The Jey Uso title match with Logan Paul is right now scheduled to be taking place on the Saturday Night’s Main Event show, which has 9,224 tickets out in Tampa and has an $83 get in price. The television set up for the building is 9,762 so it’s a lock to sell out. The advertising of the show is based around Cena, so one would think he’d wrestle, but having both Cena and Uso defend the titles seems like a lot for a television show. Especially when you don’t even do that for the PLE shows.
The build for the World Heavyweight Title bout has seen Logan Paul state his next goal in WWE is to become World Champion, with the company shooting a post-show angle after the 5/5 edition of Raw that saw Paul attack Jey Uso.
The next edition of WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event emanates from the Yeungling Center in Tampa, Florida on Saturday, May 24.
