both Chamber matches just being for Raw seems kinda disappointing.

Ideally, the men's Chamber should've been for the IC belt, but I suppose the amount of meat-bumping potentially contained therein was above the legal limits of Canada. Tell them to get onto fixing that.

At least they're throwing SmackDown a bone there by giving half the women's Chamber to them. Assumedly SmackDown will have a qualifier of some sort to match RAW.

Liv Morgan vs. Bianca Belair @ WrestleMania might just happen after all! 💙 The absolute dream match of mine, at the biggest stage. I think both are like the best on the planet right now. 💪

Easy choice for you to make, but so many people are all in on the rejuvenated Asuka at the moment that Morgan is a harder sell. I'd probably be thinking of a contingency plan here.

Both Iron Women dethroning the champs at 'Mania is a good story though.

[Mozenrath]

Asuka or Liv against Bianca would both be fine for me, though I am leaning more Asuka. Now, if Bianca's going to retain, I'd be alright with Raquel winning this and coming up short. I don't think they should do Asuka vs Bianca unless Asuka's winning. Liv can go either way.

I assume Austin Theory's retaining, so I can't really pretend I care a huge hell of a lot about that match. Seth's probably getting screwed by Logan in some way.

[YAKMAN is ICHIBAN]

I hope Dom doesn't get put in the Elimination Chamber, it might be too traumatic for him after doing hard time.

Don’t waste a Mania Match on Liv.

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

I assume Rhea/Beth happens here as well

Easy enough way to give Beth her revenge and Rhea still maintains her momentum towards Charlotte

So, Meltzer was pretty bewildered at the thought of Lashley/Lesnar not being booked in a Chamber match..

Lesnar seems to be advertised..? Would make sense we get Lashley Vs Lesnar after the Rumble deal..

Could we get this at WM..?

[Gerard Gerard]

I mean, it sounds great on paper but have a hard time imagining Lesnar being game for a Gunter-style banger.

Damn it I just finished the rest of listening to big Daddy Dave Meltzer and he said he’s been told Lesnar/Gunther won’t be happening at ‘Mania but doesn’t rule it out happening at EC.

[asuka007]

Asuka and Liv should be the final two in the chamber match imo.

Also do Rhea vs. Beth here as well please.

[polarbearpete]

Could be a really great card if they’re adding Reigns-Sami to this. The Chamber matches already look great from an in-ring perspective.

Agreed. After the rumble, my mindset was automatically “welp, I’ll be back at ‘Mania”. But with The Sami-Roman match, the in ring potential of the US elimination chamber, the intrigue of the womens EC, whatever the hell Lesnars doing, etc, etc..it could be another hell of a show.

[Push R Truth]

We need another Cena Promo where he cracks jokes about the Elimination Chamber being an anus/colon a few dozen times.

Why have a brand split or two womens titles if you’re putting Smackdown stars in this?

The brand split is almost non-existent at this point so they should just get rid of it honestly.

Morgan or Rodriguez could just be moved to Raw if one of them win.
