Saturday Night’s Main Event returned to NBC this March after a 13-year hiatus. In the mid-1980s through early 1990s, WWE fans would scour the television listings each month — making sure they didn’t miss the highly anticipated special that replaced network staple Saturday Night Live on occasion. When Jon Lovitz, Dennis Miller and Dana Carvey weren’t performing comedy sketches, WWE Superstars were squaring off in matches that often took on a pay-per-view feel. This latest episode was no different. It featured the biggest names in sports-entertainment in prime time on NBC, and it created a buzz that would resonate among WWE’s fans and Superstars for weeks afterward.
