WWE Elimination Chamber hasn't had the best build-up. One match has already been scrapped, while Keith Lee has seemingly been pulled from his battle for the United States Championship.
The former North American Champion is reportedly struggling with injury, while Asuka's title defense against Lacey Evans is off. The Sassy Southern Belle announced her pregnancy this past week on RAW.
As of this writing, there are just five matches on the official card since the Women's Tag Team Championships were added to the show on SmackDown.

Roman Reigns' match against the SmackDown Elimination Chamber winner means that WWE doesn't have to think of another clash to add. It's unclear if WWE will add any more matches or if five will be enough to fill the required timeslot.
It is also much easier for Roman Reigns to illegally retain his championship if it's a straight wrestling match.
