In the evening’s opener, the ladies of WWE delivered a very entertaining Elimination Chamber match. This sextet had a lot of really good athletes, and it showed in the impressive showcases of strength, speed, and violence. Although she didn’t get the win, Raquel was a standout as she came across as a dominant and confident force that needed a lot to be eliminated.

While Stratton was a favorite to win the match, WWE made the right choice by having Ripley win to set up an interesting clash with Jade Cargill at WrestleMania 42.
Winner: Rhea Ripley
Grade: B+
Women’s Intercontinental Championship – Becky Lynch vs. AJ Lee
Lee was understandably rusty in her return to the ring after 10 years away at Wrestlepalooza. But she still had a solid performance. She had no ring rust in her first singles match in a decade at Elimination Chamber. She and Lynch showed really good chemistry, delivered some good mat wrestling, and had interesting moments.

Winner: AJ Lee
Grade: B-
World Heavyweight Championship – CM Punk vs. Finn Balor
Balor and Punk delivered another entertaining clash at Elimination Chamber. The matchup was physical and back and forth. Interestingly enough, the members of Judgment Day kept their word and did not get involved in the match. At one point, Balor did land the coup de grace, but it didn’t put the champ away.

Winner: CM Punk

Then things got interesting. After another unknown popped up as the masked mad, a second masked man snuck into the ring and hit a curb stomp on Paul.

He would be fought off by both Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton. However, after the former hit him with a crossroads, the Viper pounced with an RKO on his pal to win the match.
Winner: Randy Orton
