2019 men's Royal Rumble winner, Seth Rollins, does not have a match at 2019 Elimination Chamber, but PWInsider is claiming that The Kingslayer will be at the show.

Rollins' WrestleMania 35 opponent, Brock Lesnar, will not feature till the marquee show, as per various reports. Rollins, though, will be a constant feature on RAW every Monday night and is set to be at Elimination Chamber, although PWInsider is reporting that we won't see Rollins wrestling the show.

The Architect is rumoured to have a back injury and that he needs time off from wrestling to heal and recover ahead of his huge match at WrestleMania 35 against Brock Lesnar for the Universal title.

#2 Braun Strowman vs Baron Corbin possible spoiler

Braun Strowman and Baron Corbin will continue their never-ending feud at Elimination Chamber in a singles match which has no consequence. This past week, the McMahons made the match a No Disqualification match, which means that there remains a possibility that Drew McIntyre could come to the aid of Corbin.

Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer believes that Strowman was pulled out of the Lesnar match because the WWE Chairman felt that The Monster Among Men could not lose to Lesnar and that there is a very slim chance that Strowman will lose against Corbin this Sunday.

Meltzer believes that McIntyre could interfere, which will result in a handicap match in the future, where the team of Corbin and McIntyre will face off against Strowman, and Strowman would win the match.

#3 Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair brawl before Elimination Chamber

This past week on RAW, Becky Lynch was removed from her WrestleMania 35 match against Ronda Rousey and replaced with Charlotte Flair.

Becky was suspended for 60 days from WWE by Vince McMahon, but the 2019 women's Royal Rumble winner made an appearance at a WWE live event on Saturday, attacking Charlotte Flair - who was facing SmackDown Women's Champion, Asuka - after coming through the crowd.

Charlotte injured Becky's knee once again, as the feud between the two continues. We could maybe see both of them ringside at Elimination Chamber, despite both not having a match on the night.

Charlotte could maybe be ringside during her WM35 opponent, Ronda Rousey's match against Ruby Riott, while there's also the possibility of Becky Lynch getting involved.

#4 Finn Balor to win Intercontinental title?

Lio Rush and Bobby Lashley will face off against Finn Balor in a handicap match for the Intercontinental title at Elimination Chamber.

Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio is predicting that Balor could win the Intercontinental title for the first time at Elimination Chamber by pinning Lio Rush.

Meltzer states that WWE may be looking at a "cheap finish" to put the title on Balor at the show, which would be Balor's second ever title on the main roster following his Universal title.
