Match Card
Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar (Univeral Championship)
The rematch from Crown Jewel is finally here. The Lesnar mind games have affected Reigns to the point where Reigns fired Paul Heyman. Reigns has had the Universal Championship for over 400 days, including all of 2021. Reigns will get himself DQd to force a third match between the two.
Winner: Brock Lesnar
Big E vs Seth Rollins vs Kevin Owens vs Bobby Lashley (WWE Championship)
Seth Rollins finally gets his shot at the WWE Championship. Only there have been some additions to the match with Kevin Owens and Bobby Lashley. A match that is sure to deliver with the star power involved. Any one of the four could walk out with the title.
Winner: Seth Rollins
Becky Lynch vs Liv Morgan (Raw Womens Championship)
Liv Morgan gets her second opportunity for the Raw Women’s Championship against Becky Lynch. Lynch has held the championship since her return at Summerslam. Morgan is finally getting her push, but unfortunately, it will not end in her hand being raised with the title.
Winner: Becky Lynch
The Usos vs The New Day (Smackdown Tag Team Championship)
The Usos are defending their titles against King Woods and Kofi Kingston. The Usos have been getting beat up by Brock Lesnar as they have been trying to defend Roman Reigns. They haven’t prepared for The New Day. King Woods and Kofi should get one last run with the titles before Woods goes on his singles run.
Winner: The New Day
RK-Bro vs The Street Profits (RAW Tag Team Championship)
Matt Riddle and Randy Orton have made a great strange bedfellow tag team, who knew the two had great chemistry. They go up against one of the fan-favorite tag teams in the street profits. Riddle and Orton are not slowing down anytime soon and The Street Profits are just next on the list.
Winner: RK-Bro
Edge vs The Miz
The return of Edge was crashed by a returning Miz and Maryse. A rivalry that surprisingly has not happened before in WWE. Two of the biggest heels in the history of the WWE square off to begin 2022. Edge still has some push left in him and I see this as a helping point for him.
Winner: Edge
Drew Mcintyre vs Madcap Moss
Do I really need to go in-depth with this match? If McIntyre loses this match he loses all his main event capability that he has built up.
