The stakes for WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 14, 2024, just got even bigger.
During the December 9 episode of Monday Night Raw, Adam Pearce dropped a bombshell announcement: Damian Priest is being added to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship match. What was once a one-on-one showdown between Gunther and Finn Balor is now a high-stakes triple-threat match.
The news came during a backstage segment featuring The Judgment Day. Pearce’s decision to add Priest into the mix immediately heightened the intrigue, as The Judgment Day now finds itself with two members vying for the prestigious title. With Gunther’s dominant reign on the line and Balor and Priest bringing their own tension to the mix, this could be one of the most unpredictable matches of the night.
This latest twist amplifies an already stacked card for Saturday Night’s Main Event. Other headline matches include Liv Morgan defending her Women’s World Championship against Iyo Sky and Cody Rhodes putting his Undisputed WWE Championship on the line against Kevin Owens.
The event will air live on NBC and Peacock in the U.S. while streaming for free on YouTube for fans in Spain, ensuring a global audience for this retro-themed extravaganza.
