5 best Elimination Chamber matches in WWE history

#2 John Cena(c) vs Dean Ambrose vs Baron Corbin vs The Miz vs AJ Styles vs Bray Wyatt for the WWE Title (Elimination Chamber 2017)

The Best Chamber match in recent time

John Cena's victory over AJ Styles in a phenomenal match at Royal Rumble kick-started his record-tying 16th reign as World Champion and, with Randy Orton winning the Rumble match, it gave scares to the fans of another Championship match between Orton and Cena. However, in order to walk into Wrestlemania as WWE Champion, Cena had to go past 5 other men - former champion Styles, The Miz, Bray Wyatt, Baron Corbin and Dean Ambrose - inside the Elimination Chamber. The Chamber had not been seen in the WWE since 2015, and, with a lot of buzz surrounding the new and improved Chamber structure, the excitement for the match was at a whole different level.

The champ Cena started the proceedings with Styles, an epilogue to their Rumble showdown, with each trading blows and also the control of the match in a fun sequence. Ambrose entered the match just as Cena was about to hit a five-knuckle shuffle on Styles and took the match outside the ring. Both Cena and Styles went face into the chains before Ambrose hit a diving elbow on Cena from the top of the pod. A double german suplex by Cena took everyone out as Bray Wyatt made his way into the ring. Wyatt launched Styles into the chains but soon fell victim to his own offense as he crashed into the ring post. Cena was knocked down from the chains by Styles, who then fought with Ambrose on the top of a pod. As Wyatt and Ambrose were fighting on the turnbuckle, Ambrose hit a powerbomb-suplex combination on both Styles and Wyatt in a memorable sequence.

Entering at #5, Corbin went straight after Ambrose, sending him into the chains followed by an End of Days. He took control of the match momentarily but his stay was short lived as Ambrose eliminated him with a schoolboy as he was focussing on the Miz. Frustrated with his elimination, Corbin attacked Ambrose by sending him through the pod before hitting him with an End of Days, allowing Miz to pin the Lunatic Fringe. Miz assumed control of the match by hitting a series of kicks and corner clotheslines on all other participants. He hit Wyatt with a Skull Crushing Finale on the steel floor, but a top rope body drop reversal into an attitude adjustment ended his stint in the Chamber.

The pace picked up with only three men left in the chamber. Cena took control with a double Five Knuckle Shuffle but Styles retaliated with a Styles Clash. Cena countered a phenomenal forearm in an AA for a close call. In one of the most memorable moments of the chamber history, Cena climbed to the top of the pod and hit a double cross body on both Wyatt and Styles but Wyatt soon eliminated him with a Sister Abigail, leaving only him and Styles in the chamber. With the crowd in Pheonix on their feet, Wyatt started pounding on Styles by countering a Phenomenal Blitz into a massive clothesline. AJ retaliated with a Pele Kick and a 450 splash for a close call. AJ went for a phenomenal forearm, but Wyatt countered with a Sister Abigail to earn the biggest victory of his career and the WWE Championship for the first time in his career.
