The Road to Wrestlemania began from Royal Rumble which was a compelling event. The first PPV of the year offered some great matches, and some titles changed hands.

Elimination Chamber is the next pay-per-view of WWE, and it will take place in two weeks, and it will be held at Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.

The Chamber match, where six participants will compete, is the primary attraction of Elimination Chamber, but, it was a seven-man chamber match last year. Two participants start the match, while four participants are kept in own chamber inside the gigantic steel structure.

Elimination Chamber is a couple of weeks away, and the match card is looking good for the event. Some matches are confirmed, while some matches could be set next week. Daniel Bryan will defend the WWE title in a six-man Elimination Chamber match. The first ever Women's Tag Team Champions will be crowned at Toyota Center.

Moreover, the new Smackdown tag team champions Miz and Shane McMahon will fight Usos. Brock Lesnar might not defend the Universal title at Elimination Chamber.

Several new matches and surprises are possible at Elimination Chamber. Here we discuss four things that could happen at the Toyota Center.

Becky Lynch won the women's Royal Rumble match after last eliminating Charlotte Flair. Subsequently, the two women had a brawl on the Smackdown Live. Hence, it suggests that the beef is not over between the former best friends, and they could have another match at Elimination Chamber.

Lynch already announced her decision after winning the women's Royal Rumble match. The former Smackdown Women's Champion will challenge the Raw Women's Champion Ronda Rousey at the Grandest Stage of Them All.

It will be interesting to see if Charlotte Flair gets added to the championship match at Wrestlemania 35. It could become an awe-inspiring triple threat match if Charlotte manages to pin Lynch at Elimination Chamber.

#3 Finn Balor could face Bobby Lashley for the Intercontinental Champion

Finn Balor stole the show at Royal Rumble when he went toe to toe with Brock Lesnar. He produced a stupendous match against Lesnar, and he definitely made a statement. He will be aiming to continue the excellent run after Royal Rumble.

Balor had a great start of the new year as he got a title shot. As a matter of fact, Balor could be set for another title shot at Elimination Chamber. The current Intercontinental Champion Bobby Lashley attacked Balor on Raw, and it is an indication for a new rivalry.

Balor and Lashley fought on Raw last year, but they did not have a long rivalry. Considering the prestige of the Intercontinental title, it could be an awesome feud. The two superstars are competent in the ring, and they can provide a top-notch match at Houston. The rivalry might continue until Wrestlemania, and Finn Balor might grab a title after three years.

#2 Sasha Banks and Bayley could become the inaugural Women's Tag Team Champions

The first ever women's tag team champions will be crowned at Elimination Chamber. The former women's champion Alexa Bliss unveiled the championship belts last month. A total of six teams will participate in Houston, and the winners will definitely make history this year.

Three teams will compete from the red brand, and three teams will compete from the blue brand. In fact, three teams have qualified for the match, while the remaining three teams could be decided next week.

Nia Jax and Tamina qualified for the match on Raw, and they were joined by the Riott Squad's Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan. Furthermore, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville were added to the match on Smackdown Live.

Several contenders could fill the remaining spots. Sasha Banks and Bayley are favourites to be the last team from the red brand. Banks had a magnificent start of the new year, as she produced a remarkable match at Royal Rumble.

Ronda Rousey worked hard to beat the former Raw Women's Champion. Hence, Banks could be set for a big push after the Royal Rumble.

Meanwhile, Bayley is a former NXT Women's Champion and former Raw Women's Champion. The two horsewomen played an essential role in the Women's Revolution. Both women had poor runs last year, but they could make a statement at Toyota Center by becoming the inaugural Women's Tag Team Champions.

#1 Bray Wyatt and Erick Rowan could help Daniel Bryan to retain the WWE title

Daniel Bryan defeated AJ Styles at the Royal Rumble, but Erick Rowan helped the WWE champion to retain the title. Rowan's involvement in the match shocked the WWE Universe at Chase Field. WWE might have a long-term plan for Erick Rowan, and he could help Bryan retain the title in future.

Bryan will put the WWE title on the line in a six-man Elimination Chamber match. He will defend the title against Samoa Joe, Randy Orton, AJ Styles, Jeff Hardy, and Mustafa Ali.

The former Wyatt Family member Bray Wyatt has not been on WWE TV for months, but he could become back and lend a helping hand to Bryan. Bray Wyatt has not appeared for a long time, but he performs in the house shows.

The WWE Universe expected him to appear in the Royal Rumble match, but WWE might have a bigger plan for the former WWE Champion.

Erick Rowan and Bray Wyatt were part of the Wyatt Family, which was a heel stable. Bryan is currently a top heel, and he could have a great partnership with Wyatt and Rowan. As a matter of fact, Bryan was part of Wyatt Family in the past. They might assist Bryan to survive the traditional six-man Elimination Chamber match in Houston.
