Winner: Daniel Bryan
Match Review: 4/5. WOW! Daniel Bryan at his very best. Finally, Bryan gets to have a long match. I have no words. This match was poetry in motion. I am deeply impressed with Gulock too. He was giving back with everything he had. This was one of the best opener for a WWE Pay Per View and definitely the best match on Main Roster in 2020. Let’s have more of this, please? I wanted to rate it higher but the match was predictable as no one thought Gulock will win. But they made it look even. Final 3 minutes were the best.

Match Review: 4/5. One of the good elimination chamber match with the right team winning. Morrizon looked amazing in the ring and he hasn’t lost a beat. The New Day and Usos are perfect as usual. Otis was the man of the match here with his anger and frustration against Ziggler. The Out of the Ring Bump by Otis will remain a visual treat for a long time. I look forward to Ziggler Vs Otis at Wrestlemania

Montez Ford in the ring is able to nail Murphy with the frog splash to pick up the victory and retain the championship.
Winners AND STILL Raw Tag Team Champions: The Street Profits
Match Review: 2/5. Less of a match and more of a segment. The build up to Seth Rollins and Owens 3:16 has been decent. Elimination Chamber has been used to build up Wrestlemania. I am fine with it but let’s also balance the same with complete and clean matches?
Owens gets in the ring with his popcorn and as Rollins is dazed, he turns around and walks into a stunner from Owens.

Winner: Shayna Baszler
Match Review: 2.5/5! Shayna Baszler was booked strong. Everything else is forgettable. Yawn Fest. The match wasn’t booked well. Last few minutes with Asuka and Shayna saved the match. So, WWE has pencilled Shayna Vs Becky Lynch. Cool. Asuka is a talent wasted by the WWE Team. She needs to get a move on already.
WWE WWE Elimination Chamber Review: 7.5/10
- A good Pay Per View with three 4 Star Matches. You don’t get to see such excellent wrestling bouts in WWE anymore. Supremely impressed with AJ Styles and Black.
- Daniel Bryan and Drew Gulak stole the show. Daniel Bryan is still the best WWE Wrestler and he has shown it today yet again with a 4 star match Vs Gulak although no body thought Gulak would win. WWE Needs to invest more time on him because he can Wrestle and WWE is World Wrestling Entertainment.
- Tag Team Elimination Chamber Match was good. Otis sold the ‘being thrown out of chamber’ really well and it will be remembered for a long time.
- Women’s Wrestling was boring. Asuka needs a Rivalry or a Release. She’d be so good in AEW. Tony Khan, are you listening?
- Sami Zayn finally wins a gold. He deserved it. He should find a realistic rivalry soon though.
- Kevin Owens did a Stone Cold. Rollins Vs Owens will be a good match at Wrasstlemania.
TOP 3 Stars of the show
- Daniel Bryan. (He is back)
- Drew Gulak (This was his best WWE Match)
- Aleister Black (He should be WWE Champion by Wrestlemania 2021)
- AJ Styles
Sorry I chose 4. Can’t leave out the Phenomenal One (Pun Intended).
Good PPV. Happy to see Bryan Danielson showing why he is the best in the world. Drew Gulak Proved he can fight and finally we saw Aleister Black in a proper Wrestling Match on the main roster, and he didn’t disappoint. Happy for Sami Zayn. He is a very talented Wrestler. Give us Zayn Vs Nakamura at Wrestlemania.
