WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event first premiered as a primetime special on NBC in May 1985. The show brought the ‘golden era’ of WWE to the masses and helped make household names out of legendary wrestlers such as Hulk Hogan, Jake the Snake Roberts, and the Ultimate Warrior. After a successful run until 1991, it returned intermittently until 2008. SNME returns to NBC in primetime on December 14, 2024, from Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Long Island, New York.
