This is the whole WWE DAY 1 match card and predictions
WWE will kick start the New Year with a primary event, Day 1 pay-per-view. On Saturday, January 1, 2022, it will take place at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.
Full WWE Day 1 Match Card and predictions
1.WWE Championship: Big E (c) vs Seth Rollins vs Kevin Owens vs Bobby Lashley- Fatal 4 Way
Big E became the new Champion by cashing in his Money in the Bank contract against Bobby Lashley, and since then, he has lived up to the occasion. He has retained his title numerous amount of times against multiple oppositions.
But at WWE Day 1, Champion’s advantage is massively less in a Fatal Four Way as all will perform for themselves. Furthermore, all three of his competitors know how to win a championship very well.
Since Kevin Owens recently got his contract renewed, there might be a possibility he will win the championship at Day 1 PPV.
Prediction: Kevin Owens
2. WWE Raw Women’s Championship: Becky Lynch (c) vs Liv Morgan
Becky Lynch has successfully defended her title in the last few months since she has returned after being a mom. The Man-made her returned at SummerSlam and defeated Bianca Belair.
Liv Morgan was under the wing of “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt, but even though The Fiend made his departure, Morgan has been going on and has flourished.
Morgan has a real chance to start the year with a win, but Becky is not far ahead as she has done some severe damage to Liv’s arm with the help of steel steps.
Predictions: Liv Morgan
3. WWE Universal Championship: Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar
Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar has been going on for a long time now, but this time it has a twist since Reigns fired Paul Heyman.
Lesnar recently destroyed Sami Zayn when helping him win against Reigns seemed like a brilliant idea. But, with The Beast claiming the Heyman is with him as his advocate, things are starting to spice up for Day 1.
Will Roman Reigns continue his reign as a champion in the coming year, or will we see a new winner in the form of Brock Lesnar? But Heyman’s involvement will be the deciding factor.
Prediction: Brock Lesnar
4. WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship: The Usos (Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso) (c) vs The New Day (Sir Kofi Kingston and King Woods)
These two teams have been around for a long time now, and both put up a tough fight every time they meet.
The current status of The Usos is excellent as they have defended the championship numerous times. Still, you can never count out The New Day, and with Xavier Woods recently becoming the King of the Ring, the team looks superior.
Predictions: The New Day
5. Edge vs The Miz
Edge has been really busy since he made a comeback last year at Royal Rumble 2021. Whether it’s the rivalry with Roman Reigns or a long feud with Seth Rollins.
The Rated R Superstar put up a scintillating performance against Rollins and ended the feud with a big win. Now is the time for The Miz.
Miz makes a comeback after his stint on Dancing With The Stars with his wife, Maryse. There have been a lot of slaps and betrayal going on since then with Edge as he got slapped by Maryse. On Day 1, there have been rumors of WWE Hall of Famer Beth Phoenix comeback to counter Maryse.
Predictions: Edge
6. Drew McIntyre vs Madcap Moss
Since Drew McIntyre was drafted to SmackDown, he has been a dominant force with all the sword entrance, and now he has the likes of Madcap Moss and Happy Corbin winding him up about it all.
On Day 1, McIntyre will look to make a statement and end Madcap once and for all. Corbin might cause interference, but it won’t be all.
Predictions: Drew McIntyre
WWE Day 1 2022 will take place on Saturday, January 1.
