Universal, SmackDown Tag Team Title Matches Official For WWE Day 1
The Bloodline will put their gold up
Dec 4, 2021
Two more title matches have been added to WWE Day 1, with The Bloodline putting their respective belts up for grabs.
Roman Reigns will put his Universal title on the line against Brock Lesnar. Lesnar coerced number one contender Sami Zayn into challenging Reigns for the belt on tonight's SmackDown, and said he would challenge whoever won to a title match at Day 1.
Prior to the title match happening, Zayn offended Lesnar with comments about his record against Reigns, causing Lesnar to violently attack Zayn. Reigns then came out for the match and defeated the battered Zayn with a guillotine choke in under 20 seconds.
The Usos will also be in action, putting their SmackDown Tag Team titles on the line against Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston. On Friday's SmackDown, Woods defeated Jey Uso by DQ after Jimmy interfered. The New Day then confirmed in a backstage promo that they would challenge for the belts at Day 1.
The current card for WWE Day 1, taking place Saturday, January 1 at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, is as follows:
* WWE World: Big E (c) vs. Seth Rollins vs. Kevin Owens
* WWE Universal: Roman Reigns (c) vs. Brock Lesnar
* SmackDown Tag Team: The Usos (c) vs. Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston
