In the ring, Triple H said it seemed like there were people at the press conference yesterday who wanted to exert their authority when they don’t have any. I don’t care where you sit. The answers come from one place and you are looking at him. In the main event of WrestleMania XL, Roman Reigns will defend his Undisputed WWE Championship against Cody Rhodes. There are some people back there who won’t like that decision, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t like that decision. Nick Aldis said now we must shift our attention to the World Heavyweight Championship. Seth Rollins’ challenger will be decided by the Elimination Chamber winner. We will kick tonight off with a series of matches to determine the participants in that match. To reiterate that the fact that WWE management is a united front, I will hand it over to Adam Pearce. Pearce said the 12 participants who will have an opportunity to be in the Elimination Chamber are Randy Orton, Bronson Reed, Kevin Owens, Logan Paul, AJ Styles, The Miz, Bobby Lashley, Ivar, Drew McIntyre, Sami Zayn, Dominik Mysterio, and LA Knight. It will kick off now.
Drew McIntyre said CM Punk is injured. Cody will finish the story and I will go on to win the World Title.
Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match
Drew McIntyre vs AJ Styles
LA Knight came down to do commentary. McIntyre and Styles fought outside the ring. McIntyre threw Styles over the announce desk. Knight dumped his bottle of water on Styles. McIntyre punched Styles from behind which sent Styles into Knight. McIntyre threw Styles back in the ring. Styles rolled up McIntyre, but the referee was distracted when Knight got up on the ring apron. Styles punched Knight. Styles turned around and got hit with the Claymore Kick.
===Winner: Drew McIntyre
Backstage, Sami Zayn said last year I was in the main event of WrestleMania and this year I’m watching that window close fast. I have to look at what’s in front of me tonight and that is Randy Orton. I have to win tonight and then win the Elimination Chamber. It’s a path, so I’ll take it.
Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match
Bianca Belair vs Michin
Michin hit the Eat Defeat on Belair. Belair hit the KOD on Michin and pinned her.
===Winner: Bianca Belair
Backstage, Triple H told Bron Breakker I am proud of you. Watching you from coming in the door to where you are now is impressive and I’m anxious to see what you can do at this level. Breakker said I have two great offers, one from RAW and one from Smackdown. Do you have any advice? Paul Heyman came in and shook Breakker’s hand and Breakker left. Heyman said that’s a great talent from a wacky family. Triple H asked Heyman what he wanted. Heyman said I can see now is not a good time. I will come back next week and I will be with my Tribal Chief Roman Reigns and The Rock. Triple H said I’m looking forward to it.
In the ring, Bayley told the fans you guys have been on this journey with me. Damage CTRL meant everything to me. They were my family. You saw how many times I put Damage CTRL before myself and all they did was take from me. I thought after I won Royal Rumble, they would be happy for me and everything would be fine, but that didn’t happen. Every time I came in the back, they were laughing. Every time I walked into the room, they stopped talking. At WrestleMania, IYO is going to learn the hard way. Dakota Kai came out and said I’ve been trying to text you all week. Are you ghosting me? Are we not friends anymore? Bayley asked where were you last week? Dakota said I had to meet with my doctor last week. I didn’t know this was going down. Bayley told her to cut the crap. Every time I was backstage, you were laughing with them. You knew what was going on the whole time. Dakota said I was put in a tough spot, but I always believed in Damage CTRL and IYO did too up until Asuka and Kairi came along. I know you had some weird history with Kairi and I thought everything would be okay, but once the two of them got in her head, the rest is history. Bayley asked Dakota why she didn’t tell her. Dakota said I wanted to, but I didn’t know how. I miss the three of us. You, me, and IYO always had each other’s back and you’ve been like a mentor to me. I didn’t know how to tell you because it seemed like your plan was working. The Kabuki Warriors won the tag titles and you won the Royal Rumble. Bayley asked her where she stands now. IYO and the Kabuki Warriors got on the ring apron. With Bayley facing them, Dakota grabbed a chair and swung them at IYO and the Warriors.
Backstage, Orton said last year I was injured and watching WrestleMania from the sidelines. Tonight I face Sami Zayn and if I win, I go on to the Elimination Chamber.
Backstage, Bobby Lashley said he will defeat Bronson Reed in an Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match this coming Monday on RAW
Winners face The Judgment Day at Elimination Chamber
Tyler Bate & Pete Dunn vs DIY (Johnny Gargano & Tomasso Ciampa)
Bate gave DIY a double clothesline. Gargano superkicked Bate. Gargano dove into the ring and got hit with a punch to the face by Dunn. Dunn gave Gargano The Bitter End and pinned him.
===Winners: Tyler Bate & Pete Dunn
Backstage, Dominik Mysterio said he’s going to win the Elimination Chamber. It doesn’t matter who I face next week to qualify. Kevin Owens showed up and said I’m the one you are facing. I’m going to give you a beating next week and I’m going to dedicate my win to the greatest Luchador of all time, Rey Mysterio. R-Truth showed and thought Owens was The Miz.
Backstage, Logan Paul asked Nick Aldis why he was put in a qualifying match. I don’t need to qualify, but I’ll do it. I’m winning the Elimination Chamber and I will win the World Championship from Seth Rollins. Aldis said next week on SmackDown, you will face The Miz.
Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match
Randy Orton vs Sami Zayn
Zayn blocked the RKO and gave Orton the Blue Thunder Bomb for a two-count. Orton hit the RKO on Zayn and pinned him. After the match, Drew McIntyre got in the ring and had a staredown with Orton.
