The company aired an advert during this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw – which was a ‘best of’ edition recapping the greatest moments of 2022 – which confirmed a Pitch Black match will take place on January 28.

The video shows shots of the live audience at WWE shows before the lights drop out, complete with dark, creepy clips from other unidentifiable matches.
A mystery figure can be seen silhouetted too, and while they do look a little like Hall of Famer Edge, it seems more likely that Bray Wyatt will be involved given the font used and the dark nature of the match.
The text in the clip reads: ‘When it’s the Pitch Black match, anything can happen!’
In an unusual twist, the new match is sponsored by Mountain Dew and takes its name from the soda brand’s new flavour, but presumably that won’t have any bearing on the actual in-ring action.
Fans are speculating over who could be involved, with plenty of people pointing out the figure’s stance and making comparisons to Edge.
Others are pushing for Wyatt, with one fan tweeted: ‘Something tells me this match might involve Bray Wyatt’.
‘This got Bray Wyatt all over it’, added another viewer, while a third person referenced his current on-screen rival and quipped: ‘RIP LA Knight. It was good knowing you.’
And despite some people being ‘very interested to see how this would work’, others are a little more sceptical as one fan wrote: Ok guyssss…. I’m gonna be in the audience. How am I supposed to see the match (sic)’.
