The video titled "2022... The Craziest Year in Wrestling History!" offers a wild recap of the most significant and shocking events in professional wrestling throughout 2022. The host, Pav, highlights how this year set a new standard for unpredictability in the wrestling world, starting from the very first day with WWE's Day One pay-per-view, which saw a major shift in plans due to Roman Reigns testing positive for COVID-19, leading to Brock Lesnar unexpectedly becoming the WWE Champion.
Key moments include the disastrous Royal Rumble, which was so poorly received that Shane McMahon was fired for producing it.
