WWE has revealed the name and other details of their first pay-per-view in 2022. The show has been named “WWE Day 1” and is scheduled to take place on January 1st. This is also the first time in six years that the company will head to Atlanta for a pay-per-view.
The city last hosted the 2015 edition of Survivor Series pay-per-view. It's also confirmed that SmackDown before "Day 1", this year's last show, will take place in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The tickets for "Day 1" are scheduled to go on sale this Friday, 27th August. Like SummerSlam 2021, the promotion is set to kickstart next year with a Saturday night pay-per-view. It is interesting to note that Royal Rumble is usually scheduled for January.
