My WWE 2K18 Results: WWE Saturday Night's Main Event (July.Week 4)

WWE Saturday Night's Main Event

July, Week 4, Year 1

Des Moines, IA

A little over a month ago on WWE Live '91, Bob Backlund defeated the WWE Champion Bret “The Hitman” Hart '97 in non-title competition after involvement from “The Heartbreak Kid” Shawn Michaels. As a result, Backlund has since proclaimed that this victory means that Backlund is really the true WWE Champion since he defeated the champion, but since Backlund hasn't received a championship match, he has brought in the 1984 version of the WWE Championship to wear around his waist as a symbol of his victory over the WWE Champion Bret Hart.

It wouldn't take too long before other WWE personalities set their sights on Backlund's prestigious prize as Bobby “The Brain” Heenan and Haku have made their challenge for Backlund's gold.

Show Opener Promo

The WCW World Heavyweight Champion '91-'93, “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair '91 comes out to the ring and talks about how he is the real world champion in the WWE. He is suddenly interrupted by Sting '91 who makes a shocking debut appearance on Saturday Night's Main Event. He tells the WWE Universe that he knows all about Flair and tells them not to listen to this guy because he's always full of it. Flair makes fun of Sting for following him here and Sting replies by saying that the WWE fans are sick of Ric Flair so “they” got one of the only guys around that has what it takes to take down “The Nature Boy”. He says that “The Nature Boy” has stepped in a bear trap by the name of “The Stinger” and he's going to pick up that WCW World Heavyweight Championship. Flair ends the segment by saying that Sting is the one that stepped in the bear trap and goes on to win the promo battle.

A video package is shown highlighting the long and heated rivalry between “The American Dream” Dusty Rhodes and Jake “The Snake” Roberts '91 that has been rife with sneak attacks, cheap shots and mind games from Roberts as well as rife with payback and fury from “The American Dream”. Throughout this rivalry, somehow both Superstars have managed to attain three victories over each other and are currently tied. With an inevitable rubber match looming near, WWE officials have teamed Rhodes and Roberts up in tag team competition tonight. Will they find a way to work together to act as an unlikely cohesive force? Or is tag team doomed to implode in spectacular fashion?

WCW's Sting '91 makes a shocking appearance and talks about how he has arrived to compete against the very best that the WWE has to offer.

Longtime rivals, Bret “The Hitman” Hart '97 and “The Heartbreak Kid” Shawn Michaels '97 have been embroiled in a bitter rivalry for several months now. Despite HBK having yet to earn a victory over “The Hitman” in this current rivalry, he has certainly found ways to get inside the head of “The Hitman”. So much so that tonight they will meet in a Ladder Match, arguably Shawn Michaels' signature match type. Will this match be the one where HBK finally beats Bret and takes the WWE Championship? Or will “The Hitman” once again find a way to put HBK away?
