This week during Monday Night Raw, WWE announced three matches for the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view.
As noted earlier, Drew McIntyre will put the WWE Championship on the line inside the Elimination Chamber structure. He will defend against Randy Orton, Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles, The Miz, and Sheamus. This week on Raw, Drew McIntyre faced Randy Orton in a non-title match but the match ended with Sheamus running in. Sheamus tried to his McIntyre with the Brogue kick but he hit Orton by accident.
WWE has also announced that United States Champion Bobby Lashley will defend against Matt Riddle and Keith Lee in a Triple Threat Match. The match was made after Lee defeated Riddle on Raw. Lashley ran in the ring and attacked Riddle and Lee after the match.
It was also announced that Raw Women’s Champion Asuka will defend the title against Lacey Evans. Evans became the number 1 contender by defeating Charlotte Flair via disqualification.
The referee called for the disqualification when he was shoved by Charlotte while trying to tell her to back off from attacking Evans in the corner of the ring.
WWE Elimination Chamber will take place on Sunday, February 21 inside Tampa’s Tropicana Field (WWE ThunderDome).
