As revealed on the day of the event, it was also WWE's first event to be promoted as a " Premium Live Event", a term the company introduced to refer to their major events that are available via PPV and the livestreaming services Peacock in the United States and the WWE Network in international markets. The company previously ran a New Year's-themed PPV event called New Year's Revolution from 2005 to 2007, but each of its events were held shortly after New Year's Day. The idea for Day 1 was conceived by WWE president Nick Khan. Due to the event taking place on the first day of the year, it was titled Day 1, marking WWE's first PPV event to take place on New Year's Day. The State Farm Arena is the home venue of the Atlanta Hawks of the National Basketball Association, and the announcement was made by the Hawks' all-star point guard Trae Young.
#WWE DAY ONE PROFESSIONAL#
On July 23, 2021, the American professional wrestling promotion WWE announced that it would be holding a pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming event on Saturday, January 1, 2022, at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, which would feature wrestlers from the Raw and SmackDown brands. Lesnar was originally scheduled to face Roman Reigns for SmackDown's Universal Championship, but that match was canceled hours before the event due to Reigns testing positive for COVID-19. In the main event, Brock Lesnar defeated Seth "Freakin" Rollins, Kevin Owens, Bobby Lashley, and defending champion Big E in a fatal five-way match to win Raw's WWE Championship by pinning Big E.
Seven matches were contested at the event, including one on the Kickoff pre-show. Day 1 was also WWE's first event to be branded as a "Premium Live Event", a term the company introduced to refer to their events airing on PPV and WWE's livestreaming platforms. Its scheduling also caused the cancelation of the TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs event, which was usually held in late December. The event's title alludes to its New Year's scheduling and was WWE's first PPV to have the New Year's theme since New Year's Revolution in 2007. The event took place on Saturday, January 1, 2022, at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, and was the company's first PPV event to take place on New Year's Day.
It was held for wrestlers from the promotion's Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. The 2022 Day 1 was the inaugural Day 1 professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming event produced by WWE. Given the recent problems plaguing WWE, Day 1's come to be even more anticipated not only for the matches themselves but also to see how the federation will overcome this latest onslaught.Promotional poster featuring Roman Reigns Liv Morgan is giving everyone a great feeling, but from here to winning the title on Day 1 is a really big difference. However, the fans still seem not to have got tired of her, but the idea of seeing the young former ally of Ruby Soho champion seems to intrigue the minds of every fan. Plus, Liv Morgan is poised to take the limelight against a Becky Lynch that she doesn't seem to be able to fully convince yet. This match, whose inherent history seems to take root more and more in the episodes of SmackDown, is added to an interesting list of encounters that have been formed over the months of WWE.Īmong all, the match between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar seems to be the one to pay the ticket for, but also the feud between Miz and Edge can give us interesting epilogues at a struggling level. Lots of interesting matches on the Day 1 card
