Elimination Chamber 2020: 5 Potential finishes for Andrade vs Humberto Carrillo - United States Championship

Humberto Carrillo was able to pin Andrade this past week on RAW which means that he is now given another shot at the United States Championship for the second consecutive pay-per-view. Back at The Royal Rumble, the two men collided on the kickoff show and Andrade was able to retain his United States Championship against the WWE newcomer before the duo were then handed a rematch the following night on RAW.

It was in this rematch that Carrillo played Andrade at his own game and Hammerlock DDT'd him onto the concrete outside the ring. That allowed him to then miss a month of WWE TV since he had been suspended for his first violation of the company's wellness policy.

Andrade made his return at Super ShowDown last week in Saudi Arabia and has since stepped back into the feud with Humberto Carrillo after Angel Garza continued the rivalry in his absence.

There are a number of combustible elements in this feud already and it appears that there could be several outcomes on Sunday night.

#5. Andrade retains via interference

Andrade has been missing from WWE for almost a month and in that time Zelina Vega has proved to be quite an interesting ally for Angel Garza, but she will now return to her place alongside Andrade for their match on Sunday night and could be the reason why Andrade retains.

Zelina Vega has proved a number of times that she is the best decision that Andrade ever made back in NXT and has been able to push him to new levels in the company. It's hard to believe that if Andrade was to overcome the threat of Carrillo at Elimination Chamber, that Vega wouldn't be involved in some way.

#4. Humberto Carrillo wins his first Championship in WWE

It was a strange decision to allow Andrade to leave WWE for a month and take the United States Championship with him. It's happened before, like when Trish Stratus would be out injured and take the Women's Championship with her. However, this was during a time when the division was less competitive and this wasn't an absence through suspension.

Andrade's punishment has to be for him to lose the United States Championship to the up and coming star now that he's returned. The company has used the last month to get Carrillo over as a credible threat, so it's a good time for him to win the Championship.

The feud between Garza and Carrillo has been one of the most compelling stories on Monday Night RAW and given the fact that Carrillo was the one who took Andrade out of action and was able to pin him this past week, there's nothing stopping him from beating him one more time with the Championship on the line.

If this is a straight-up match without any interference, then Carrillo has to be seen as a genuine threat to end Andrade's reign.

#3. Angel Garza costs his cousin the match

Angel Garza has slotted into Andrade's place over the past month whilst the United States Champion was sitting out his suspension. Now that Andrade is back, it appears that he has picked up his rivalry with Carrillo and has a genuine reason for look for some revenge since it was Carrillo who DDT'd him onto the concrete.

Garza has technically already defeated his cousin on two occasions and it could be argued that Garza is more deserving of the Championship shot than Carrillo is, given his recent loss record at the hands of the former Cruiserweight Champion.

It's unknown as to whether or not he and Andrade are on the same page at moment or whether the feud between Carrillo and Garza has reached its climax. It could be argued that chances are high that Garza will be making an appearance in this match.

Angel Garza and Zelina Vega are now linked together, so if she's at ringside for the match then Garza may also be there to help out.

#2. Rey Mysterio helps Humberto Carrillo to victory

Rey Mysterio has been part of this feud as much as anyone else over the past few weeks and was one of the main reasons why Carrillo was able to pin Andrade last week on RAW.

The former World Champion has been there on numerous occasions to save Humberto and he has had Mysterio's back as well. If Garza decides to be at ringside for the Championship match between the two men, then it's only fair that Mysterio will be at ringside to even the odds.

Mysterio hasn't been as involved in this feud as he probably would have liked but it's obvious that he is there to help the three men to get over with the RAW audience and this has definitely been one of the more intense feuds on Monday nights in recent memory.

Whether or not Rey Mysterio's involvement helps or hinders Humberto Carrillo remains to be seen, but the uncertainty definitely makes this standard Championship match much more exciting and guarantees that it will be on the main show this time around.

#1. Zelina Vega costs Andrade the Championship

Zelina Vega wasn't written off WWE TV when Andrade failed the company's Wellness Policy test a few weeks ago. Instead, she has been aligned with Angel Garza, despite the fact that he definitely doesn't need someone to talk for him.

Garza and Vega have proved to have fantastic chemistry, but this past week on RAW when Garza and Andrade tagged together for the first time, there were teases that they weren't actually on the same page either.

How long can Vega continue to be the business manager for two men who are destined to rise to the top of the company? Given the recent turn of events, it would be both shocking and interesting if Vega cost Andrade the Championship and then went on to choose Garza over her former client.

After all, there are no automatic contractual rematches in WWE anymore so the feud between Andrade and Carrillo would then be over and they could open a feud between Garza and Andrade heading into WrestleMania next month.
