5 Things That Can Happen At WWE Day 1 2022

1. Paul Heyman will rejoin WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and cost Brock Lesnar

In what is arguably the most interesting feud in wrestling at the moment, Roman Reigns will once again defend the WWE Universal Championship against Brock Lesnar. This comes off the heels of their match at Crown Jewel last year, where Reigns won after a tug of war with the belt and interference from the Usos.

Since his return at SummerSlam last August, Lesnar has been at the top of his game. From his new ponytail, a bearded look to him finally talking more on the mic. Lesnar has been a breath of fresh air from his heel character.

The feud has taken on yet another interesting feud as Reigns has fired Reigns as his advisor after Heyman said he is protecting Reigns from Lesnar. The following week, Heyman teased that his career may be over. However, this is the world of professional wrestling and everyone knows that retirements are never permanent.

The outcome of this match will see Heyman make his return and assist Reigns in retaining the Universal Championship. It seems as though WWE is set to extend Reigns v. Lesnar until WrestleMania 38 and this will be the next step in doing so.

As mentioned before, retirements in WWE are never permanent and this feels like Reigns and Heyman pulling the wool over everyone's eyes. What will likely happen is that there will be a referee bump. Both Lesnar and Reigns will be down when Heyman makes his way to ringside. It will look like he is about to help Lesnar win the title when he swerves everyone and helps Reigns instead.
