Fort Wayne host announcement gives WWE's May schedule a fixed broadcast anchor

WWE confirming Saturday Night's Main Event for Fort Wayne creates a concrete consequence, the company's late-May calendar now has a defined live special with clear ticketing and distribution details in place.

Because this is both Fort Wayne's first televised WWE stop since 2014 and the first Indiana edition of the special since 1992, the event is being positioned as a market return with historical framing rather than a routine tour date.
