The Big Event announced another rare guest for their March 2026 return to Brentwood, Long Island in former AWA World Champion Rick Martel. Martel has pretty much distanced himself from professional wrestling bookings at this point and this will be his final ever appearance in the Northeast. The event will also feature the final Northeast appearance of Don Muraco as well. Bill Goldberg will also be appearing:

Guys, I was so amped when John through up the ???????????????????????? in the sleeper that I spun around yelling and then completely missed the tap. I missed the final moment of John Cena’s in ring career because I was having too much fun watching.
