After the highlight pay-per-view of January and one of the highly anticipated events of the year WWE Royal Rumble being a huge success, WWE's next stoppage on the road to WrestleMania 35 is Elimination Chamber.

Scheduled to be held on February 17th, the Elimination Chamber has become a vital event of the year. With a unique style of hardcore matches, it has made a special place in the hearts of WWE fans.

Well, while WWE has already announced the tag team elimination chamber matchup to crown the inaugural Women Tag Team Champions for February 17, they also announced that Daniel Bryan will defend his WWE Championship in a six-man Elimination Chamber match. So, it would not be wrong to say that the match card is shaping up beautifully for February 17th.

Also, we might witness WWE adding some more mouthwatering matches to the event.

So, without further ado, let's take a look at 4 predictions for the Elimination Chamber 2019.


#4 Shane McMahon and The Miz retain their tag team championship against The Usos

The team of Shane McMahon and The Miz defeated The Bar to win the tag team Championship at Royal Rumble 2019.

However, they will be in for a stiffer challenge when they face The Usos in the championship match at Elimination Chamber.

The Usos have been one of the high profile tag teams of the SmackDown roster, and have been the quintessential tag team on the WWE roster. The Usos along with The Bar and The New Day have formed the backbone of the Tag Team Division. However, WWE decided to spice things up when they crowned the newly formed team of Shane and The Miz as the SmackDown Tag Team Champions.

And given the duo have just won the championship at Rumble, expect them to retain the title against the Usos on February 17.

#3 Daniel Bryan retains his title in the Elimination Chamber match

Daniel Bryan will defend his WWE Championship on February 17 against Mustafa Ali, Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles, Randy Orton and Samoa Joe in a traditional Elimination Chamber matchup.

However, given his overwhelming stint as the WWE Champion, plus WrestleMania 35 just around the corner, expect Bryan to successfully defend his WWE Championship on February 17.

While Brock Lesnar vs Seth Rollins has been stamped for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 35, there has not been any indication on whom Daniel might face at The Grandest Stage of Them All. While there have been a few names, with the likes of John Cena and Braun Strowman being thrown in the pool of potential opponents for Bryan at Mania, February 17 might give us a fair idea of what WWE has in store for Bryan.

All in all, expect Daniel Bryan to reign supreme against five other superstars at Elimination Chamber to retain his WWE Championship.

#2 Bayley and Sasha Banks become the first Women Tag Team Champions

Six teams will compete in an Elimination Chamber matchup to determine the winner of the inaugural Women Tag Team titles.

WWE has announced it in advance that six tag teams will compete against each other in an Elimination Chamber matchup to determine the winner of the inaugural Women tag team titles.

And while 3 teams (2 from Raw and 1 from SmackDown) have already qualified for the event, we might witness the vacant spots getting completed as soon as the end of the upcoming week.

One such team which has a high probability of winning the whole thing is the tag team of The Boss and The Hugger. While they will feature in a qualifying match on the upcoming episode of Raw, WWE could, as a matter of fact, crown them as the first Women Tag Team Champions to lay down the breadcrumbs for a potential blockbuster tag team match against Lita and Trish Stratus at WrestleMania 35.

#1 Finn Balor becomes the new Intercontinental Champion

Finn Balor has been pushed back in the mid cards after his loss against Brock Lesnar at Royal Rumble. However, it seems that WWE might have something big in store for him.

Given how Bobby Lashley attacked The Boss of the Balor Club last Monday Night on Raw, a potential match for the Intercontinental title at Elimination Chamber seems totally on the cards. However, given Balor has been crazily over among fans, and the fact that the Creative have been showing trust in him, we might witness WWE crowning him as the new Intercontinental Champion on February 17.

While the Championship match itself has not been officially announced for the event, we might witness WWE doing the honors on the upcoming episode of Raw.

Well, Balor winning the Intercontinental Championship might be the ideal move at this point in time. Also, it would give his fans something to cheer about after his heartbreaking loss at Royal Rumble.
