WWE Saturday Night's Main Event is fast approaching and will take place in New York at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum on December 14. The event returns for the first time since 2008, and NBC will broadcast the two-hour special as part of its five-year deal with the Stamford-based company.

For now, three matches have been confirmed for Saturday Night's Main Event. Liv Morgan will defend her Women's World Championship against IYO SKY, Finn Balor will get a title opportunity against the World Heavyweight Champion Gunther, and Cody Rhodes will put his Undisputed WWE Championship on the line against Kevin Owens, as the rivalry between the two megastars continues.

As WWE is expected to add more matches to the card, we take a look at three stars who could debut at Saturday Night's Main Event.

#3. Hikuleo could join The Bloodline saga

Hikuleo has signed with WWE since the summer but hasn't appeared on NXT or the main roster. He has been linked to The Bloodline storyline, and it is a no-brainer that he will join the Civil War soon.

Both The OG Bloodline and the new Bloodline are in search of a new member, as CM Punk and Bronson Reed will not be part of the rivalry going forward. Reed, meanwhile, will miss time after injuring both his ankles during the WarGames match at Survivor Series.

If the creative team makes another Bloodline match, this time at Saturday Night's Main Event, it could be the perfect spot for Hikuleo's debut. Should he become part of the main roster, he could join The OG Bloodline and become Roman Reigns' Right-Hand Man.


#2. Zilla Fatu has picked Roman Reigns over Solo Sikoa

Zilla Fatu is the son of the late WWE legend Umaga and is set to become part of The Bloodline storyline soon. There is no indication that he has signed with the company, but if he is to appear at Saturday Night's Main Event, WWE could pursue signing a deal with him soon.

Speaking on The Busted Open Radio, Fatu already picked a side in The Bloodline Civil War, which is still in full force.

"I'm gonna have to go with team OTC, baby. Roman Reigns. Obviously, everybody knows me and Jacob [Fatu] teamed up on the indies before he got signed. Ever since Jacob got signed, he's been acting crazy. That's not the Jacob I know. But he's been acting crazy. And then you got Solo, which I've been beefing with him since I was eight years old. I gave him his first Rock Bottom in the pool at his dad's house. And for him to try to take my dad's [finishing] move or whatever, I don't like that. So I'm gonna go with OTC, I'm gonna help Roman Reigns. Whatever he needs, I'm there," Zilla Fatu said. [h/t Wrestling Inc]

Like Hikuleo, the final major show of 2024 looks like the ideal opportunity for Fatu to make his WWE debut and align with The OG Bloodline.


#1. Penta could go after the Intercontinental or United States Championship in WWE

Penta is a free agent now that his contract with AEW has expired. He is expected to sign with WWE, which has shown interest in landing him. How soon a deal can be reached remains unclear, but he could appear as early as Saturday Night's Main Event.

What he could do there also remains unclear, but he could target the Intercontinental Champion Gunther or the new United States Champion Shinsuke Nakamura, if any of the two is in action in the event.
