WWE Saturday Night Event Adds Major Championship Match Stipulation
A significant development unfolded during WWE SmackDown, leading to a crucial change for the upcoming “Saturday Night’s Main Event.” This weekend’s live event promises an exciting card, featuring multiple championship matches.
Championship Match Stipulation Update
Cody Rhodes will defend his Undisputed WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre. In a tense contract signing, McIntyre raised concerns about the fairness of the matchup. He expressed that if either competitor were disqualified, he would lose the chance to win the championship.
Despite Drew’s objections, which led him to initially refuse to sign the contract, Cody insisted on a new stipulation. He proposed that if he faced disqualification or counted out, he would lose the title. This bold move shook up the atmosphere as Nick Aldis facilitated the agreement.
Word War and Physical Confrontation
Following the contract signing, tensions escalated. Cody, asserting that “nice guys finish last,” clashed with Drew, who criticized Cody’s character while even referencing his family. This volatile exchange culminated in a physical altercation, with Cody using his championship belt as a weapon.
Nick Aldis warned Cody about the repercussions of his actions. In the ensuing brawl, Drew delivered a powerful slam that put Cody through a table, intensifying the feud between the two competitors.
