  "account": "WWE Sunday Night's Main Event, the first to be held on a Sunday, is set to take place on September 6, 2026, during the Labor Day weekend. The event will be held at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, beginning at 8 p.m. ET, 7 p.m. CT, and 5 p.m. PT. The event can be watched exclusively on Peacock in the United States.\n\nThree matches have been announced so far: the main event, Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton; Bron Breakker vs. Oba Femi; and a celebrity bout between Baron Corbin and Lil Yachty. The stipulation for the Yachty vs. Corbin match is that if Yachty lasts five minutes, Corbin grants Trick Williams a United States Championship rematch that night.\n\nAt this point, the card has only three matches, so it is read as an update rather than a final one. The Corbin vs. Williams match is the only championship bout on the card, with Corbin holding the United States Championship and Trick Williams only getting a rematch if Yachty survives the five-minute survival stipulation. The Rhodes vs. Orton match is a rematch of a WrestleMania 42 match, which Rhodes won, and it will be interesting to see how the two legends perform in this match.\n\nIt is expected that one more match will be added to push the card to five matches. As of now, no women's match has been scheduled, but it is possible that one may be added soon, potentially resulting in a pure championship match.",
