The Elimination Chamber will be live from the T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada on February 25th 2018 and will be the final stop for the red brand before Wrestle Mania. WWE has announced two Chamber matches with the Women's Elimination Chamber match taking place for the first time. However, the focus remains on who will go on to face 'the Beast Incarnate' at 'the Grandest Stage of them All' to cement his position in the main event.
While Braun Strowman, Roman Reigns, John Cena, Elias & the Miz, are already announced to be a part of this historic match, the last spot remains vacant and will be decided next week in a Fatal 4-way match between Finn Balor, Matt Hardy, Bray Wyatt & Apollo Crews. There's no denying that the match holds a Paramount importance considering it could be the last opportunity for someone like Balor to challenge Brock Lesnar at the Super Dome.
Here are the 6 superstars who will enter the Chamber along with their chances of winning
#6 The Miz
'The A-Lister' is a phenomenal performer and still continues to reinvent himself time & again but there's no denying that he has the least favourable chances of winning this match. His inclusion in the Elimination Chamber is definitely to take an early pin and, if WWE tries to introduce several storylines during this match, then this could probably work in their favour. Having Finn Balor pin 'the Awesome One' would not only give Balor the momentum but, could also ignite a blockbuster feud with the Intercontinental Champion at Wrestle Mania.
It has been speculated that both the superstars are scheduled to face each other at 'the Show of Shows' and, with 'the Demon' provided with another opportunity to shine, it could be an ideal time to start this sensational feud with some fantastic storytelling. The Miz is awesome but his inclusion is just to be an early elimination.
Chances: Slim
#5 Elias
Well, Elias is the most improved personality on the roster and has certainly grown over the fan's courtesy of his ability in the ring & most importantly his fascinating charisma. The guy is definitely going to steal the spotlight from many superstars in 2018, and despite being the most entertaining performer on the red brand, the Drifter's chances of winning the Chamber are quite slim to say the least.
WWE booked him in a fascinating spot this Monday night by having him pin 'the 16-time World Champion' in controversial fashion and having him earn the right to enter last in the match which means that he will head to Nevada as a dark horse. But, do not expect him to win the match considering he will be eliminated sooner rather than later, by either Braun Strowman or John Cena.
Chances: Slim
#4 Braun Strowman
'The Monster Among Men' is the hottest commodity on Monday Night Raw and, has done everything in his power to be recognized as a pure entertainer who decimates everything that comes in his way. Any match that has Braun Strowman in it, will be dominated by him and, he would definitely head to T-Mobile Arena as a legitimate threat.
However, there are rumours that he will be heading into a feud with Triple H which excludes his possibilities of winning the match and going on to face 'the Beast Incarnate' at Wrestle Mania. WWE will book Strowman as a force to reckon with in this match and, expect him to be eliminated by all the remaining superstars which seems to be the only legitimate possibility considering that he has been booked like a destructive force. 'The Monster Among Men' will be the Universal Champion somewhere down the line but, he might have to wait for it.
Chances: Moderate
#3 John Cena
The Face that runs the place will do everything in his power to get his hands on the Universal Championship against someone who embarrassed him at Summer Slam few years back. John is the poster boy and stands a very good chance of winning it all but, let's face it, he won't walk out of T-Mobile Arena as the No. 1 Contender for the Universal Championship.
'The Franchise' is heavily speculated to face the Deadman at the show of shows and it makes sense for the WWE to push the envelope with this rivalry and, have the Undertaker cost John a crucial opportunity to make history at Wrestle Mania. It is likely that 'the Phenom' will cost 'Big Match' John and, will plant the seeds for an epic showdown in New Orleans. Expect Finn Balor to pin 'the Franchise' after being choke slammed by the Undertaker.
Chances: Strong
#2 Finn Balor
If there's a man who deserves a legitimate opportunity to face 'the Beast Incarnate' for the Universal Championship at Wrestle Mania, then it is Finn Balor. The guy has been overlooked and has spent most of his 2017 directionless being involved in lacklustre feuds which have lowered his stock as a main event performer. Well, since it's Wrestle Mania season, WWE will try to give Finn the momentum he deserves before heading to 'the Showcase of the Immortals'.
He is definitely going to win the Fatal 4-way match next week on Raw with a strong showing and will head to T-Mobile Arena with a chip on his shoulder. The company must book Finn to eliminate John Cena from the match which would not only be an ideal moment to seek redemption but, could also bring him a lot of momentum. Expect 'the Demon' to enter the Chamber first and, survive till the end by putting on a phenomenal performance before being eliminated.
Chances: Very Strong
#1 Roman Reigns
Well, as far as logic is concerned, the two superstars that really deserve a shot at the Universal Championship are Finn Balor and Roman Reigns. 'The Big Dog' defeated Bray Wyatt this Monday to earn an opportunity to face 5 superstars inside a chamber with the No.1 Contender ship prize on the line. There are a lot of fans who want to see 'the Demon' head to Wrestle Mania as the challenger to Brock's title but, things are never the way they seem and it is a definite spoiler that 'the Big Dog' will reign supreme in the end.
It makes sense for WWE to book this match considering they want to push Roman to the moon and winning this match would only lead him to tame the Beast at 'the Show of Shows'. Expect Roman to annihilate his opponents and, crush their hopes by spearing them all and taking the pin to win the Elimination Chamber.
Chances: Excellent
