Wrestling veteran explains how to book WWE Saturday Night's Main Event before Royal Rumble (Exclusive)
The WWE Royal Rumble Premium Live Event this year is only about a month away, leading to much buzz in the community. According to wrestling veteran Hugo Savinovich, to keep up the momentum, the preceding Saturday Night's Main Event needs to be booked in a specific fashion.
While Saturday Night's Main Event is not exactly at the level of Royal Rumble, it does have its own expectations among fans. The next SNME will be held on the 25th of this month, leaving a few weeks to set up and accelerate storylines. Considering the time constraint, Hugo Savinovich recently spoke about how he would book the show if it were up to him.
Speaking on Sportskeeda's UnSKripted, the wrestling veteran stated:
"I believe that you will have to go with two attractions from RAW, two attractions from SmackDown, and the infomercial about what you are selling, your big event, coming up on pay-per-view or special live event, whatever you call it... The way everything goes right now, you don't have much time to sell that long. So you have to be precise." [1:24 onwards]

The wrestling veteran also spoke about The Rock's potential return to WWE
Hugo Savinovich also said that The Rock should make his return to the active scene in WWE soon.
The Brahma Bull has been out of the ring since his storyline with Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns last year. Speaking on another episode of UnSKripted, Hugo Savinovich stated:
"I believe that if he shows up, he's gonna kick some b*tt. I mean, because you're starting a new era, and you gotta make it for the fans and the new fans. Remember, we are talking about people that were not even used to watching a boxing fight that watched that Tyson bout. So to me, it's a great opportunity to use somebody like The Rock or John Cena, who, even if you don't know their wrestling history and the faces of the WWE... just the fact of their names, Hollywood personas, it don't have to be too long." [10:58 onwards]
It remains to be seen what the Stamford-based promotion plans to do next.
