Jesse Ventura has confirmed that he\'ll be part of the next edition of Saturday Night\'s Main Event from San Antonio, Texas this weekend, January 25.
There had been speculations about the status of the wrestling veteran despite being praised for his work at the last show in December, especially after the recent return of Hulk Hogan. Ventura however, powerbombed all rumors with a post on on X, confirming that he will in fact return to the airwaves as scheduled.
\"So very excited for Saturday Night\'s Main Event this weekend in San Antonio. The Body returns to Texas this Saturday Night!\
Jesse Ventura signed a new legends contract with WWE and returned to the promotion last year, putting his long-standing grudge against the company aside. At the time it was announced that the veteran wrestler and broadcast personality will be calling 4 shows for the company every year.
His status for the January 2025 event became questionable again however, when WWE announced a new partnership with Hulk Hogan\'s beer company and brought him in for an appearance at Raw\'s Netflix premiere on January 6.
The former governor of Minnesota has long been at odds with Hogan since learning that the latter exposed his efforts of forming a wrestling union to Vince McMahon in the late 80s.
Many believed that Hogan will be making an appearance at the NBC exclusive event after his return but after Ventura\'s announcement, it\'s safe to say the Hulkster will not be at the show.
