It’s Ready: Lineup Set For Elimination Chamber Match For WWE Title
And then there were six. With about two months to go before WrestleMania 38, it is time for WWE to start setting up the card. They have already set up what is likely to be the main event, but that match could very well change, as there is still a major event left to air. That event will be held on February 19 in Saudi Arabia with Elimination Chamber, and now we know what is going to be headlining the show.
WWE has already announced that WWE Champion Bobby Lashley will be defending the title inside the Elimination Chamber. This week on Monday Night Raw, Lashley’s five challengers were announced for the match. In addition to Lashley, the following names will take part in the Elimination Chamber match:
Brock Lesnar
Seth Rollins
Austin Theory
Riddle
AJ Styles
Lesnar and Rollins were added to the match by orders of WWE executives. The other three all won qualifying matches, with Theory defeating Kevin Owens, Riddle defeating Otis and Styles defeating Rey Mysterio.
Opinion: This is the kind of match that can make for some great moments as the lineup is stacked. While the most likely scenario is another Lashley vs. Lesnar showdown, there is always the chance that Roman Reigns would interfere and cost Lesnar the title again. Above all else, this is the kind of match that has quite thehistory and it could chance how WrestleMania goes this year.
