The dominant manner in which Shayna Baszler won the main event of Elimination Chamber was polarizing. Some loved it while others did not. Of the performance, Booker T claimed that "she's highly touted and it's a whole lot different being in NXT and then being under the spotlights. It's a sink or swim position (for her)."

Booker also felt that "she's a still a question mark as to what she's going to bring to the table when she's in the ring one-on-one with Becky Lynch." Woods added that she was "so incredibly dominant inside Elimination Chamber that I hope she's just ready for all the pressure that comes with it."

Ember Moon has faced the Queen of Spades before and felt that she sees "something different" and that Baszler is here "to take over more of a dominant position. She just obliterated everyone in the Elimination Chamber. It's not a question of if she's ready it's if Becky is ready."

Some people are still on the fence about the effect she'll have with Booker T asking "does it translate to butts in seats? Being in that role is hard." Moon also brought up the fact that unlike Ronda Rousey, the Queen of Spades "wrestled before she got to WWE. She had to make it on the other side of the pasture." Moon finished by saying "I think Becky is in trouble."

Moon also loved the opening match between Daniel Bryan and Drew Gulak. She felt that "this was a match of pure wrestling. It was one of the best matches. I want to see more." Moon was happy for Gulak because "he works so hard and he deserves this" spotlight.

Booker T lauded new Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn, saying that he loved "what Sami Zayn is doing. One thing he can say forevermore is that he beat Braun Strowman." The two-time Hall of Famer also said that Zayn is "a role player. You give him the ball and he's gonna score."
