Final two wrestlers qualify for WWE Elimination Chamber
The final two participants for the Elimination Chamber are set.
Jey Uso got the win in the final men’s qualifying match on Raw, defeating Bronson Reed and Original El Grande Americano in a triple threat match. Uso pinned Americano with a frog splash in a finish that was unplanned, as Bronson Reed was originally set to win. Reed suffered a torn biceps while breaking up a pin during the match and was unable to continue, leading to Jey Uso’s impromtu win. It was later announced that Reed would be out of action indefinitely.
For the women, Raquel Rodriguez scored the victory over Kairi Sane and IYO SKY. The finish had SKY hitting a tornado DDT, only for Sane to throw her out of the ring and go for the in-Sane elbow. Rodriguez got the knees up and connected with the Tejana bomb for the win.
It was established on Raw that the winner of the women’s Elimination Chamber match will now challenge Jade Cargill for the WWE Women’s title at WrestleMania 42. Royal Rumble winner Liv Morgan made her decision earlier in the show, attacking Stephanie Vaquer to set up their title match.
