Adam Pearce announces that the WWE Elimination Chamber PPV will feature a tag team match between Charlotte Flair & Sonya Deville versus Ronda Rousey & Naomi. All four women go into the ring. After the contract was signed, both teams exchanged a few “friendly things” until Rousey snagged the WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship and tossed the title belt at Charlotte Flair. After that, a big brawl ensues, with the faces able to gain the upper hand. In the end, Rousey and Naomi are able to throw the table at their opponents and the heels pull back.

We see a recap of the match between Ricochet and Ridge Holland from two weeks ago. Sheamus is now backstage with Holland. He tells Holland how to finish Ricochet. Holland should concentrate fully on his task. In the upcoming match he will show Holland how it’s done.

After the match, Sheamus pushes his protégé away and turns his back on him.

We see a flashback to the last week that Rick Boogs was electrocuted. Backstage with Kayla Braxton is Sami Zayn, who comments on this. He denies the allegation has anything to do with the matter. Zayn once again mentions that he was cheated out of his WWE Intercontinental Championship last year.

In a promo video we are shown the feud between Goldberg and Roman Reigns.

After a commercial break, the next match continues.

Another throwback to the past week as McIntyre sat down with Madcap Moss. McIntyre then comes to the ring. He talks about living in New Orleans before. He remembers being in a police car once and some more. But that always leads him to think that Corbin’s attack on Day 1 could have ended all of that. He was about to miss the Wrestlemania season. He turns to Moss and tells what he could do with him in Saudi Arabia. But for all these things he needs the support of the WWE Universe and suggests the hashtag #MadcapMauling. Then Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss come out. Corbin doesn’t believe McIntyre wants to bully his partner. Moss threatens McIntyre. He’ll defeat him at Elimination Chamber. Moss jokes about McIntyre’s injured neck. McIntyre promises Moss that he will hurt him.

In the guerrilla position we see Shinsuke Nakamura revealing his plan for his upcoming title defense. He’ll kick Sami Zayn in the face!

3. Match
WWE Intercontinental Championship
Singles Match
Sami Zayn won against Shinsuke Nakamura (c) (w/ Rick Boogs) via pin after a rollup -> title change!
Match time: 18:12
– Even the WWE “spoiled” the title change. The market leader published the result of the title match on social networks and also in an article on its own website.

Backstage we see Ricochet and Aliyah. Aliyah is over the moon and raves about Ricochet. After Ricochet pulls away, Sami Zayn appears, who not only wants to meet Aliyah again later, but also promises an autograph to two employees.

Below is a promo video about what’s happening around the WWE Championship and the upcoming Elimination Chamber Match.

A face-off segment now ensues between WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and his challenger Goldberg. Tribal Chief Roman Reigns, accompanied by Paul Heyman, heads to the ring. “New Orleans… Acknowledge me!”. With these words he greets the audience before handing over to Paul Heyman to be celebrated. Heyman have a gift for anyone who didn’t get a chance to see legends like Michael Jordan, Tom Brady and many more in their Prime. Because Roman Reigns is at its current peak. Goldberg doesn’t want to talk and goes to the ring. Goldberg has a microphone in hand, but quickly drops it. Reigns tries to get Goldberg to talk. Goldberg apologizes to fans for not being next to Roman Reigns when it comes to the WWE Universal Championship. It is he. Today’s show goes off air with an intense staredown.
