Roman Reigns’ signature gesture has been utilized for the first PPV event of 2022. WWE Day 1 official poster has recently been launched as the company unveiled it using social media accounts. As expected, the top WWE Superstar is featured in the middle of the poster as he will feature in the main event match for the night.
WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns will be defending his title against Brock Lesnar at the pay-per-view event. The two top superstars colliding against each other will serve as a headliner of the night and the WWE is trying to bring a sold-out event using their star powers. So it doesn’t come as a surprise that one of them has been featured in the official poster of the show.

Roman Reigns debuted a new t-shirt in WWE
Also, Roman Reigns had debuted a new “Needle Mover” t-shirt on this past week’s SmackDown. The speculation on social media is that the t-shirt is a reference to the comments made by the champion towards CM Punk back in August. Reigns told BT Sport’s Ariel Helwani that Punk never “moved the needle” like The Rock or John Cena during his WWE tenure.
“When it comes down to it, CM Punk was not as good or as over as a John Cena, wasn’t as good or as over or moved the needle like The Rock,” Roman Reigns said. “It just was what it was.”

Furthermore, The Head of the Table tweeted “Legitimate needle-moving” after news broke that this year’s SummerSlam pay-per-view in Las Vegas was the highest-grossing and most-viewed SummerSlam of all time. Reigns defeated Cena in the headliner match of that night. Culminating in all these happenings, Roman Reigns debuted his ‘needle-mover’ t-shirt at the hometown of CM Punk, that’s the All-State Arena in Chicago, Illinois.
Moving on, the WWE Day 1 pay-per-view will take place on New Year’s Day, Saturday, January 1, from the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. Check out the PPV match card for the evening,
