Elimination Chamber 2021 could have some massive moments in store

The WWE Championship will be on the line at Elimination Chamber 2021 this Sunday as Drew McIntyre will defend his title against five former WWE Champions - AJ Styles, Randy Orton, Sheamus, Kofi Kingston, and Jeff Hardy. A lot of things could happen in what is sure to be an action-packed and thrilling bout between all the six Superstars from Monday Night RAW.

Here are the five last-minute predictions for the WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match. Be sure to comment down and let us know your predictions.


#5 WWE Champion Drew McIntyre starts the match

Elimination Chamber is one of the most grueling match types in WWE history and there's no denying that the Superstars entering first are at a massive disadvantage than the ones entering after them. However, these stacked odds also bring out the best in some of them who end up delivering an iron-man performance.

Drew McIntyre has been a fighting Champion and he is entering the Elimination Chamber this Sunday to prove a point. And hence, he might just enter the match at the very beginning and possibly endure the most punishment inside the match.


#4 The final two in the Elimination Chamber match are Drew McIntyre and Sheamus

This past week on Monday Night RAW, Sheamus won the Gauntlet match and earned the right to enter the Elimination Chamber match last. Not just that, he also pinned the WWE Champion Drew McIntyre, although after the latter had been wrestling for a long time.

We could be in for a deja vu of the same inside the Elimination Chamber this Sunday with Sheamus entering the match fresh and going after an exhausted Drew McIntyre. The two of them could be the final two Superstars remaining with there being some near falls for Sheamus before Drew McIntyre finally prevails and hits the Claymore kick to his 'once' best friend.

#3 Mustafa Ali takes out Kofi Kingston and replaces him in the Elimination Chamber match

A last-minute replacement in the WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match was Kofi Kingston, who earned the final spot by defeating The Miz on Monday Night RAW last week. However, Kingston might not end up competing in the match courtesy of an attack from RETRIBUTION.

The faction has been feuding with The New Day on RAW and Mustafa Ali might end up taking out Kofi Kingston and taking his place in the Elimination Chamber match. It was exactly two years ago where Mustafa Ali got injured and got replaced by Kingston in the 2019 Elimination Chamber match, which led to the entire KofiMania angle. This could be an amazing way for Ali to take, well, retribution and continue his storyline with The New Day members.


#2 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt invades the WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match

There are several signs that hint towards the fact that 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt might finally return to WWE TV this Sunday at Elimination Chamber. This past week on Monday Night RAW, Alexa Bliss took things to another level and hinted at using dark magic to bring back The Fiend, who was burned in the middle of the ring by Randy Orton at WWE TLC 2020.

The Fiend could return for revenge and invade the WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match, taking out Randy Orton. Moreover, he could return with a new look as per the reports, possibly with an even scarier mask. This would ultimately set-up a WrestleMania clash between the two - which at this point looks inevitable.

#1 The Miz attempts to cash-in following the Elimination Chamber match

The original line-up for the WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match included Mr. Money in the Bank The Miz as one of the six participants. The decision was met with massive criticism from the WWE Universe as it makes no sense for The Miz, who holds a guaranteed world title shot at any time and place, to be in the WWE Championship match.

Someone in the WWE creative team then possibly saw the lack of logic and on this week's RAW, and The Miz removed himself from the Elimination Chamber match. He then rallied to get John Morrison the spot that he vacated but ultimately it went to Kofi Kingston who defeated The Miz to earn the final spot.

However, The Miz did tease that he will cash-in his Money in the Bank contract at WWE Elimination Chamber this Sunday. We might just see that happen and it makes all the sense for the MITB winner to cash-in on the champion after the latter has gone through a grueling match like the Elimination Chamber. However, the cash-in attempt might not turn out to be successful.

Comment down and let us know whether you think The Miz could walk out of Elimination Chamber as the new WWE Champion or not?
