2017 is finally coming to an end, and it will be a year to remember for wrestling fans. It was a year full of ups and downs, and there are still a few big matches that are set to take place before the year comes to an end.
It was recently announced that WWE Champion AJ Styles will be defending his title against John Cena and Jinder Mahal at the WWE live event in Tampa on Saturday night, and now another huge title defense has been announced.
WWE Monday Night Raw General Manager Kurt Angle took to Twitter to announce that Roman Reigns will be defending the Intercontinental Title against Samoa Joe on Monday night, and if Roman is disqualified, the title will change hands.
Kurt Angle posted the following announcement:
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

Roman Reigns has been taking on all comers since winning the Intercontinental Championship a few weeks ago, and Samoa Joe has been gunning for the title. With such a big stipulation involved, it seems that the odds are against Roman Reigns heading into the title match on Monday, but we’ll have to wait and see what happens.
