According to Wrestlenomics.com, the 2023 Day 1 PLE event has been canceled and isn’t being rescheduled. The cancellation could be related to January 1st being when the last Sunday NFL game of the regular season takes place and WWE not wanting to have a conflict with NBC Universal. In late September, Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com noted that the January 1st date for Day 1 hadn’t been finalized. Tickets were supposed to have gone on sale September 23rd.

At least for the moment, there is no PLE scheduled between Survivor Series on November 26th and the Royal Rumble on January 28th 2023. The initial idea was to make Day 1 an annual event on January 1st and not hold a PLE in December. Brock Lesnar had reportedly been scheduled to be at the 2023 Day 1 PLE.
