The Road to WrestleMania continues, the Elimination Chamber tomorrow night is the next stop, admittedly the build up has been hit and miss, five matches have been announced so far. Let's get to the predictions.
Match Card
WWE Women's Tag Team Championship Match
Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler vs. Sasha Banks & Bianca Belair
The following contest is going to be interesting for sure, we have four great competitors in one match, two of them (Nia and Shayna) have been terribly booked by creative for over a year. Respect to Nia and Shayna for making it work. in terms of what I think will happen at the Chamber? I believe that Reginald will get involved here and inadvertently cost Sasha and Bianca the match, leading to Sasha turning against Bianca or vice versa. Predicted Winners: and still Women's Tag Team Champions. Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler.
Elimination Chamber Match - Winner faces Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship
Jey Uso vs. Kevin Owens vs. Baron Corbin vs. Sami Zayn vs. Cesaro vs. Daniel Bryan
Time to break this down like D-Generation-X by talking about each person in this match, beginning with Jey Uso. Jey has already had title opportunities and has lost so he will not win here. Kevin Owens is in the same situation as Jey. Corbin and Zayn are heels and so that rules them out unless WWE plan a "shock win" for one of the two I just mentioned, this leaves Bryan and Cesaro. after much consideration, Bryan winning here is perfect because then the story from the 2015 Royal Rumble can continue. Predicted Winner: Daniel Bryan.
Universal Championship Match
Roman Reigns (c) vs. Daniel Bryan?
After much consideration, I predict this match will take place immediately after the Chamber match because Roman will not want to waste time and give Bryan an opportunity to recover. Bryan will give it his all here and attempt to win against the odds, he will ultimately fall short. Predicted Winner: and still Universal Champion. Roman Reigns.
United States Championship Match
Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Riddle vs. Keith Lee
Bobby has been brilliant to watch lately, it seems as though he is in line for a mega match at WrestleMania. I believe he will be dominant against two strong challengers here and pick up the victory. There is nothing else for me to say here really to be honest with you. Predicted Winner: and still United States Champion. Bobby Lashley.
Elimination Chamber Match for the WWE Championship
Drew McIntyre (c) vs. AJ Styles vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Randy Orton vs. Sheamus vs. Kofi Kingston
Unlike Roman, Drew is defending his Championship in the Elimination Chamber. Let's break down the credentials of the five challengers involved. AJ is phenomenal as we know, he has been the champion in the past and doesn't really need to win the title here. likewise Jeff Hardy, in regards to Orton, we know he is involved in a story with "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt and Alexa Bliss, we know that Wyatt is going to make a return imminently and so it will make perfect sense for him (Bray) to make an appearance and cost Orton the chance for the title. I will talk about Kofi first instead of Sheamus because I feel that Mustafa Ali and RETRIBUTION will make a run in and cost Kofi the match because of past Chamber events, which was Ali unfortunately suffering an injury and Kofi taking his place (just in case you needed reminding)
I predict this match will go down to Drew vs. Sheamus, which probably should've been the match at this event to begin with, the face to face interaction between the two guys will be quality to watch, I want to see a war take place here for about 10-15 minutes before Drew hits the Claymore for the win. Predicted Winner: and still WWE Champion. Drew McIntyre.
That is it for predictions. The review-ish for the Elimination Chamber will be available Monday afternoon. Until then, thanks for reading.
