WWE is advertising the Elimination Chamber match for a shot at the WWE Universal Championship for the Elimination Chamber event that will be held on March 8. WellsFargoCenterPhilly.com lists Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman vs. Daniel Bryan vs. Shinsuke Nakamura vs. King Corbin vs. Robert Roode for the match.
Powell’s POV: The Elimination Chamber winner will presumably face the winner of “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt vs. Goldberg title match that will be held at the WWE Super ShowDown event. My guess remains The Fiend vs. Reigns at WrestleMania. It is worth noting that WWE often makes changes after they send out the advertising. The Chamber match is essentially a lock, but the participants may change between now and the event.
I hate this match. Too many harsh bumps. The WWE doesn’t allow the talent to sell it, either. You’ll see a guy absolutely take a beating in the Cell and then back out on Raw the next night.
At least if it’s smckdown participants then they might get a couple of days rest. However every chance vince will still have them working live shows
