WWE's Main Event on February 12, 2026, delivered a dramatic twist as Julius Creed's emotions took center stage. But was it all an act?
The Main Event YouTube show delivered a thrilling ride, with three matches in a concise 36 minutes. The night's narrative, however, was dominated by the enigmatic mood of Julius Creed during the tag team main event.
No Joy in Creedville:
The LWO's Cruz Del Toro and Joaquin Wilde faced off against the Creed Brothers, but the focus was on Julius. From the start, he appeared distant, a stark contrast to Brutus' fiery entrance. Brutus dominated, drawing boos from the crowd with his aggressive display. The match's climax saw Wilde's senton dive thwarted by the Creeds, who powerbombed him onto the apron. Brutus' roar was met with Julius' icy stare into the camera.
As the match neared its end, Julius' shove on Wilde led to a superplex from Brutus. Unnoticed, Julius tagged in, sealing the win with a moonsault on Del Toro. But the real story unfolded after the match. Brutus, triumphant, contrasted sharply with Julius' unchanged somber demeanor.
A Troubled Streak:
The Creeds' recent losses have been well-documented, including a defeat against Alpha Academy last week. But their struggles go beyond recent history. According to Cagematch.net, their last victory was at an NXT live event in September, and their last televised win was against the War Raiders on Raw in May 2025. The weight of these losses seems to burden Julius, who couldn't hide his discontent.
Fire and Fury:
The opener featured Grayson Waller and Dragon Lee, a clash of contrasting styles. Waller, in WrestleMania form, faced a crowd-favorite Lee. The match ignited with Lee's chops, but Waller's clothesline turned the tide. A lone heckler echoed the past, but Waller remained focused. An innovative springboard back rake added a unique twist. The finish was a blur of counters, with Lee slipping and Waller capitalizing with a knee strike. Lee fought back with a double stomp, but Waller secured the pin with Operation Dragon.
Berto's Rise:
Apollo Crews showcased intensity, but Berto, accompanied by Angel Garza, stole the show. Berto and Garza's disdain for the crowd set the tone. Crews' ten corner punches had the fans counting, but Berto's retaliation stopped at nine, a clever heat-building tactic. Angel's interference kept Berto in the game, thwarting Crews' powerslam victory. Crews' frustration led to a pump kick on Angel, but Berto capitalized with a fireman's carry powerbomb for the win.
Match of the Night:
Berto vs. Crews takes the crown, with Waller and Lee as worthy contenders. The classic babyface vs. heel dynamics and old-school moveset made it a standout. Berto's potential is undeniable, and with his age and room for growth, he could be a future AAA star.
The Julius Creed Conundrum:
The Creeds' recent TV appearances have been scarce and unsuccessful. Their last Raw appearance in July ended in defeat. Yet, Brutus' commitment to his character is commendable. The question remains: What's next for the Creed Brothers? Is Julius' demeanor part of a larger storyline, or is it a genuine reflection of his wrestling journey?
And here's the twist: Could Julius' mood be a calculated act, a subtle heel turn in the making? Or is it a genuine display of frustration? The wrestling world is abuzz with speculation. What's your take? Share your theories in the comments below, and let's unravel the mystery together!
