WWE Sunday Night’s Main Event 2026 fight card

• Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton
• Oba Femi vs. Bron Breakker
• Baron Corbin vs. Lil Yachty (five-minute time limit)
• Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss, and Tatum Paxley vs. Jade Cargill, Michin, and B-Fab

An original TV special, Saturday Night’s Main Event, was a ratings hit when WWE and NBC first teamed up in 1985. After a hiatus, WWE brought it back for a few special events. The event is on Sunday due to Labor Day weekend. 

Lil Yachty has been teaming with Trick Williams. The latter lost the WWE United States Championship against Baron Corbin. Now, for Trick to get a rematch that night, Lil Yachty must win his in-ring debut against Corbin. The caveat: he must last five minutes.

A rivalry gets renewed when Cody Rhodes faces Randy Orton in a grudge match. Meanwhile, the future of the WWE will collide when Oba Femi faces Bron Breakker.

Also on the card, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss team up with Tatum Paxley to take on Jade Cargill, Michin, and B-Fab.
