The WWE returns to UAE with Saudi Arabia hosting the 2022 Elimination Chamber PPV. The PPV will feature two Elimination Chamber and all five WWE titles will be on the line on the 19th of February. The main event of the night will feature an Elimination Chamber match for the WWE Championship between champion Bobby Lashley and five of the best in WWE right now. So without further ado, let’s have a look at five matches that you should not miss at WWE Elimination Chamber 2022.

After a horrific neck injury, Drew McIntyre made a surprising return at the Royal Rumble. As soon as the Scottish Warrior entered the rumble match, he went after Madcap Moss and Happy Corbin which began the feud between the two. In response to this feud, WWE paired the two to fight in a falls count anywhere match at Elimination Chamber, likely to give McIntyre a win to his name before the greatest WWE event – The WrestleMania.
4. Becky Lynch VS Lita – Raw Women’s Championship

The 2022 Royal Rumble featured a lot of returns including the return of WWE legend Lita who entered the rumble match. While her return seems short-term, WWE would love to feature a legend at Elimination Chamber and so they did! In the post-Royal Rumble edition of Raw, Lita confronted Lynch for a title match at Elimination Chamber. Lynch was up for taking the challenge as defeating a WWE Hall of Famer was something she wanted to do for a long time.
3. Roman Reigns VS Goldberg – Universal Championship

As Reigns lifted his title after retaining it against Seth Rollins, the lights went out and it was the 55-year-old WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg making his nth return to WWE at Royal Rumble. As there was no clear opponent for the Head of the Table before his showdown with Lesnar at WrestleMania, WWE turned to a legend. On the following SmackDown show after Royal Rumble, Goldberg showed up to deliver his typical “You’re next!” promo to Reigns and WWE made the match official. Roman Reigns could extend his days as the WWE Champion or we could witness a 55-year-old Hall of Famer lifting the Universal Title for the first time.
2. Women’s Elimination Chamber Match

A shot at becoming the #1 contender for the Raw Women’s Championship is on the line as Rhea Ripley, Nikki A.S.H., Bianca Belair, Doudrop, Liv Morgan and Alexa Bliss will go head-to-head in an Elimination Chamber match. In this match, Belair will be the last one to enter the ring having won a gauntlet match on Raw. Rhea Ripley, Nikki A.S.H., Doudrop, and Liv Morgan entered the match after a brilliant performance at Royal Rumble and the following Raw shows.
One to watch out for in this fight is Alexa Bliss who returns to WWE for the first time since her doll Lilly was destroyed.
1. Men’s Elimination Chamber

Unlike the Women’s Elimination Chamber match, the Men’s Chamber match has a lot more to offer for the participants as the WWE Championship title is on the line. Champion Bobby Lashley will have to defend his title against the likes of Brock Lesnar, Seth Rollins, AJ Styles, Riddle, and Austin Theory. After losing the title to Lashley by unfair means at Royal Rumble, Brock Lesnar was directly injected into the Elimination Chamber match. Seth Rollins, Riddle, Style, and Austin all had to win qualifying matches to book their places in the chamber.
With the field set, and Brock already having a title shot guaranteed at WrestleMania, there are many ways that the match could play out. Let’s wait and watch what WWE has to offer.
