WWE Day 1 - 1.1.22

Immediate reaction; “Same shit, different year”.

Rationalising it; it’s the first ever Day 1 ~~PPV~~ Premium Live Event, it’s on New Year’s Day, the turnout is reportedly less than stellar, and they’ve had to pull a match from the card. They want to present the PPV as “must see” if they want to do it again next year.

Further thoughts; I’m not taken with Brock as champion, I’m also not really into Brock vs Roman either though. The stuff between Brock and Lashley was interesting, I’d be into that. I’d also be into Big E chasing the belt back from Brock. But I don’t think we’ll get either of those things, and the damage to Big E might not be repairable.
