However, there are several top stars who will not be featured at the upcoming edition of Saturday Night's Main Event. Despite being in central storylines, names like Asuka, Solo Sikoa, Lyra Valkyria and many more are likely to be left out of the show. Triple H seems to be heading with the five-match format yet again for this weekend's event.

Let's take a look at the six biggest stars who will miss Saturday Night's Main Event XLI:

#5. IYO SKY

IYO SKY has been absent from Monday Night RAW for two consecutive weeks now. She was involved in a heated rivalry with the Kabuki Warriors prior to her absence. However, the storyline seems to have taken a momentary halt on the red brand. SKY will miss the upcoming edition of Saturday Night's Main Event.

There has been no progression in her storyline with Asuka and Kairi Sane in recent weeks, which confirms her missing SNME. IYO SKY is one of the biggest stars in the women's division and remains the central focus of Monday Night RAW. The Genius of the Sky has rarely missed any major events in recent times.

#4. Bron Breakker & Bronson Reed

Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed are two of the biggest attractions of Monday Night RAW. Ever since they betrayed Seth Rollins and kicked him out of The Vision, the spotlight has mainly been on them. Fans were hoping to see Reed and Breakker in action at WWE's upcoming show, which will stream on Peacock.

However, The Vision members will not be part of Saturday Night's Main Event this weekend in Salt Lake City. Despite riding on a red-hot moment, they would miss the show as the company had no major matchups planned for them. Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed are currently not involved in any specific feud either.

#3. Stephanie Vaquer

One of the biggest stars in the women's division who will miss Saturday Night's Main Event XLI is Stephanie Vaquer. The Dark Angel has been the central focus of Monday Night RAW since winning the Women's World Championship. However, WWE has miserably failed to book her in any prominent singles feud.

Stephanie Vaquer is currently involved in a tag team drama with Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez. Fans were still hoping for her to compete in a tag team match alongside Nikki Bella at Saturday Night's Main Event. However, WWE didn't do that either, making La Primera miss the Peacock-streaming event.

#2. LA Knight

LA Knight is one of those superstars who has been riding on a roller coaster ride in WWE. Just when things appear to be in his grasp, the tide shifts drastically. The Megastar, who was once the favorite to win the Battle Royal on RAW and go against CM Punk at Saturday Night's Main Event, will now miss the show.

The company could have easily booked Knight in a big match at this weekend's event following his heartbreaking loss. It could have been against any superstar like Bron Breakker, which would have helped both to be in the spotlight. However, WWE failed to come up with any major match for LA Knight at SNME.

#1. WWE star Rhea Ripley

Rhea Ripley is one of the biggest stars in WWE and a central attraction of Monday Night RAW. However, she has been away from television since suffering a brutal beating at the hands of the Kabuki Warriors on October 13 RAW. Prior to her absence, Ripley was involved in a tag team feud with Asuka and Kairi Sane.

However, her absence may have pushed that storyline away for now. The Eradicator will miss the upcoming edition of Saturday Night's Main Event. Similar to IYO SKY, Rhea Ripley rarely misses any WWE show. However, Mami will be off the card for this weekend's SNME.
