WWE has changed their stance when it comes to competing against AEW, as WWE has been counterprogramming AEW more often now. That’s why it’s no surprise that WWE has scheduled a future Saturday Night’s Main Event show to go head-to-head with AEW’s All In: Texas event this year.
Peacock has officially announced the dates for two upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event shows on their website. The first show is set for May 24, 2025, while the second will take place on August 12, 2025, at 8 PM ET. Notably, the second show coincides with AEW All In: Texas, which is also scheduled for August 12, 2025 at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas.
It’s certainly not shocking to see WWE scheduling their upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event show against AEW All In: Texas. This follows their recent strategy, as they held a live event in the same city as AEW’s Worlds End pay-per-view last year.
Before this head-to-head battle, WWE fans can look forward to the next Saturday Night’s Main Event show on January 25, 2025, at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas. With multiple shows lined up, WWE is keeping the competition with AEW intense, ensuring that wrestling fans stay on their toes.
