The 2019 Elimination Chamber delivered what many fans wanted, as we saw a few title changes, while there were a few surprises as well. We saw new women's tag team champions as Sasha Banks and Bayley made history inside the Elimination Chamber, while the feud between Ronda Rousey, Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair intensified too.

The team of Shane McMahon and The Miz lost as well, as The Usos became the SmackDown tag team champions once again.

Finn Balor won his first title in WWE since his Universal title, and many will hope that his reign will last more than a day. Kofi Kingston pushed Daniel Bryan to the limit but fell short as he continues his quest to win the WWE Championship.

On the road to WrestleMania 35, here are 4 fallouts from 2019 Elimination Chamber:


#4 Shane McMahon-Miz heel turn

Shane McMahon and The Miz, who won the SmackDown tag team titles from The Bar at Royal Rumble, lost the title at Elimination Chamber to The Usos, as the brothers are currently on their fourth reign as SmackDown tag team champions.

Following the match, many expected Shane and Miz to attack each other, but in a surprising turn of events, The Miz helped a battered Shane McMahon to the locker room. Backstage, an irate Miz was told to go home by Shane.

Many in the WWE Universe felt that the only reason the two became champions was to set-up a singles feud between the two. We could maybe see Shane McMahon turn on The Miz, attacking him and setting up a match for WrestleMania 35, as many have expected for a long time.

#3 Lio Rush face turn; Strowman in a handicap match?

After being pinned by Finn Balor, which resulted in Bobby Lashley losing the Intercontinental title, Lio Rush seemingly turned face as he was attacked by Lashley. This could maybe see Rush get more matches on RAW just like Mustafa Ali on SmackDown.

Later in the night, Lashley attacked Braun Strowman in Strowman's match against Baron Corbin, which was a no disqualification match. Lashley, along with Corbin and Drew McIntyre, attacked Strowman, resulting in Corbin getting the win.

Could we maybe see Strowman face off in a handicap match in the future against the trio? It seems like such a match is completely in the favour of Corbin, McIntyre, and Lashley, but it could also show the strength and power of Strowman, who can be at his monstrous best, and get some momentum back.

#2 Randy Orton vs AJ Styles feud; Kofi Kingston to get another shot at WWE Championship

In the WWE title match at Elimination Chamber, Kofi Kingston put on a stellar show, pushing WWE Champion Daniel Bryan to the limit. Kingston was applauded and cheered by the WWE Universe but fell short in the end.

We could maybe see Kingston get another opportunity against Daniel Bryan in a singles match in the future as Bryan is currently without a babyface opponent on SmackDown, following the injury to Mustafa Ali.

Meanwhile, we could also see a potential feud between Randy Orton and AJ Styles after Styles was eliminated by Orton from the Elimination Chamber. Styles haven't had a singles feud with each other in the WWE and this could be the right time for the two to face off on SmackDown as the fight for the WWE Championship currently has many competitors.

#1 Becky Lynch vs Charlotte Flair to decide who will face Ronda Rousey

At Elimination Chamber, Becky Lynch made a surprise appearance (despite her being suspended by Vince McMahon) as she attacked Charlotte Flair with her crutches, but then also went on to attack Ronda Rousey, possibly sending the McMahon family a message - if she can't be in the match, she will attack the competitors in the match.

Perhaps in the coming weeks, Vince McMahon could remove the suspension for a while and schedule a match between Charlotte and Becky for the next PPV, Fastlane, where the winner of the match faces off against Rousey at WrestleMania 35.

Reports suggest that WWE is promoting this match for Fastlane. Perhaps, Rousey could interfere in the match and set up the triple threat match for WrestleMania 35. That would be the right way to go about setting up the match between the three, which will most likely main event WrestleMania 35.
