WWE Monday Night RAW Preview: January 1st, 2018

#3 Roman Reigns And Samoa Joe Will Collide

Who will reign supreme on New Year's Day?

There was an Intercontinental Championship match between Roman Reigns and Samoa Joe last week but it ended in a disqualification when Reigns wouldn't stop stomping Joe down in the corner. It was a pretty weak reason for the referee to call for the bell, but that is what happened regardless.

Now the match has been reset and the stakes are raised because that's how WWE rolls. But if Roman Reigns causes another DQ this week then Samoa Joe will walk out of the AmericanAirlines Arena with the IC Title.

Now Roman Reigns will have another chance to avenge Dean Ambrose's injury, but he will need to be a bit more careful this time because a DQ will mean The Big Dog will be losing that championship.

On the first #Raw of 2018 @WWERomanReigns will defend his #ICTitle against @SamoaJoe; if Roman is DQ’ed, he’ll lose the match AND his title
