Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena's retirement from active competition is looming on the horizon. With limited dates left in his Farewell Tour, it was announced that Cena is returning to Saturday Night's Main Event. Triple H recently revealed the latest promotional poster featuring the veteran superstar.

World Wrestling Entertainment and Peacock revived Saturday Night's Main Event last December. The special will now air quarterly as part of WWE's five-year media rights deal with NBCUniversal. SNME XXXVII was held on December 14 on Long Island, and the first primetime special of 2025 came on January 25 in San Antonio. The 39th event will take place on May 24 at Yuengling Center in Tampa.

Big Match John was previously booked for SNME 39, which will be a part of WWE's Tampa Takeover during Memorial Day Weekend. Triple H took to X/Twitter today to reveal the new promotional poster for the next Saturday Night's Main Event. The Chief Content Officer touted the two-hour show as the kickstart to the weekend.

"Kickstarting a Tampa takeover on Memorial Day Weekend. #SNME live nationwide 5/24 at 8PM on @nbc & @peacock," Triple H wrote.

Cena's last singles match on Saturday Night's Main Event was in 2007, when he faced Carlito. The following year, he teamed up with Batista and Cryme Tyme to take on The Legacy, JBL, and Kane.

The 40th Saturday Night's Main Event special is scheduled for July 12, but the location has not been confirmed. The third SNME of 2025 will go head-to-head with AEW All In: Texas.
