WWE Elimination Chamber 2022 Likely Results

The 12th edition of WWE Elimination Chamber is not far away. The live Pay-per-view will see interesting matches and a host of twists and turns as WWE superstars continue their journey to the 'Showcase of the Immortals', WrestleMania 38. '## At the event The All Mighty' Bobby Lashley will defend his recently claimed WWE Championship title against the former titleholder Brock Lesnar along with Seth 'Freakin' Rollins, Austin Theory, Riddle, and AJ Styles in the Men’s Elimination Chamber Match. ## Check Out The Full Predicted Winners Below: ## Elimination Chamber Match For The WWE Title: Bobby Lashley Vs. Brock Lesnar Vs. Seth Rollins Vs. Austin Theory Vs. Riddle Vs. AJ Styles ## “The All-Mighty” Bobby Lashley will defend his title against Brock Lesnar, Seth Rollins, Austin Theory, Riddle, and Styles inside the career-altering Elimination Chamber. Of course, with WrestleMania 38 just around the corner, WWE is hoping to build as much interest as possible. ## Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns are in that small group and WWE has gone back to its old standby of Lesnar vs. Reigns as WrestleMania main event. In doing so, they've backed themselves into a corner of needing to find a way to make this meeting "bigger than ever." A title vs. title match gets that job done, even if the rest of the roster suffers for it. ## So, I will go with Brock Lesnar winning the WWE Title and confirming a Title vs. Title match at WrestleMania 38. ## Winner Prediction: Brock Lesnar ## WWE Raw Women's Championship: Becky Lynch(c) Vs. Lita ## At WWE Elimination Chamber, Big Time Becks will undertake an extreme challenge when she attempts to retain the Raw Women’s Championship against WWE Hall of Famer Lita. ## Lynch is the woman WWE wants in a main event-level match at WrestleMania. Lita getting a match is nice and all, but she's not going to lead a major program ahead of the biggest event of the year. ## Lita is one pioneer female wrestler in WWE who had showcased her ability inside the squared circle, back in her heyday. After almost a gap of 16 years, Lita will finally be appearing in a singles bout as she will challenge Becky Lynch for the RAW Women’s Championship at the Elimination Chamber event. ## While fans are elated to see the legendary name back in the ring, the excitement may not last long given WWE doesn’t have any plans around her once the event passes by. ## The WWE Hall of Famer recently spoke to Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated where she indicated that WWE does not really have future creative plans for her after Elimination Chamber 2022. ## So, I would like to go with Becky Lynch retaining her title. ## Winner Prediction: Becky Lynch ## SmackDown Tag Team Championship: The Usos(c) Vs. Viking Raiders ## At WWE Elimination Chamber, The Viking Raiders will look to knock Jey & Jimmy Uso off the top of the mountain in a highly anticipated showdown for the SmackDown Tag Team Titles. ## Erik & Ivar soon of Viking Raiders earned the right to challenge The Usos in a turbulent Fatal 4-Way Match several weeks ago on SmackDown. ## Winner Prediction: Viking Riaders ## WWE Universal Title Match: Roman Reigns(c) Vs. Goldberg ## Roman Reigns was originally scheduled to face Goldberg for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 36 in April 2020; however, due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic shortly before the event, Reigns pulled out of the match due to his immunocompromised state from past battles with leukaemia. ## Goldberg faced another challenger at that event who defeated him for the title. Two years later on the February 4, 2022, episode of SmackDown, with Reigns now as champion after winning the title at Payback in August 2020, Goldberg appeared and challenged Reigns to a match for the Universal Championship at Elimination Chamber, which was made official. ## Despite the fact that Goldberg is one of the proving dominant forces within WWE, I would still like to go with Reigns retaining his title. WWE is reportedly planning to have a Title vs. Title match at WrestleMania 38, so that would probably need Reigns to have the title. ## So, My pick is Roman Reigns. ## Winner Prediction: Roman Reigns ## Falls Count Anywhere Match: Drew McIntyre Vs. Madcap Moss(with Baron Corbin) ## On the February 4th edition of SmackDown, Drew McIntyre confronted Moss and Happy Corbin. Later on SmackDown, the match was made official between McIntyre and Madcap Moss. ## Winner Prediction: Drew McIntyre ## Elimination Chamber match for a WWE Raw Women's Championship match at WrestleMania 38: Liv Morgan Vs. Rhea Ripley Vs. Bianca Belair Vs. Doudrop Vs. Nikki A.S.H Vs. Alexa Bliss ## Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan, Doudrop, Nikki A.S.H. and Alexa Bliss will battle inside the career-altering Elimination Chamber for the right to challenge the Raw Women’s Champion at WrestleMania. ## The Elimination Chamber Match will begin with two Superstars in the ring and four other competitors enclosed in their respective pods. Every five minutes, a pod door will open, allowing another competitor to join the contest. This process will continue until all pods are empty. ## When a Superstar is pinned or submits, that Superstar is eliminated and must exit the Chamber. The last Superstar remaining will be the winner. ## Winner Prediction: Bianca Belair ## Tag Team Match: Ronda Rousey & Naomi Vs. Charlotte Flair & Sonya Deville ## Ronda Rousey & Naomi will team up to take on SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair & Sonya Deville at Elimination Chamber PLE. ## On the February 11th edition of SmackDown, Charlotte Flair defended the SmackDown Women's Title against Naomi. Although Flair would defeat Naomi in the subsequent SmackDown Women's Title Match, post-contest taunting by Sonya on the defeated Naomi let the a 2-on-1 attack by The Queen and Deville. ## This brought Rousey to the rescue. Shortly after The Baddest Woman on the Planet sent Flair packing and once nearly locked Deville's other arm up, the tag team matchup for WWE Elimination Chamber became official. ## Winner Prediction: Ronda Rousey & Naomi ## Rey Mysterio (with Dominik Mysterio) vs. The Miz (with Maryse) ## Rey is set to lock horns with The Miz in a Grudge match at WWE Elimination Chamber in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. ## The match took the shape when The Miz was on commentary during the Mysterios’ match against the Alpha Academy On tonight’s (February 14) episode of Raw. The Miz and Maryse did it in a distraction, apparently costing The Mysterio the match. After the match, Maryse got in the ring and Miz attacked Dominik from behind and then Miz gave Rey a Skull Crushing Finale. WWE later announced that Rey Mysterio will take on The Miz at the Elimination Chamber event. ## Winner Prediction: Rey Mysterio ## To stay updated with all the latest combat sports news, add Sacnilk.com to your Google News feeds and follow us on Twitter.
