Two more qualify for WWE Elimination Chamber
Je’Von Evans and Asuka are heading to the Elimination Chamber.
Evans scored a surprise win in the main event of Monday’s Raw, defeating Gunther and Dominic Mysterio. The finish had Dragon Lee attacking Gunther with the ring bell, payback for a previous attack by Gunther earlier this month. Mysterio entered the ring and looked to finish off Evans with the 619 and frog splash, but Evans dodged the latter and connected with the OG Cutter for the win, sending him to Chicago on February 28.
Earlier in the show, Asuka defeated Nattie and Bayley to advance. The finish had Asuka sending Bayley into the ropes, taking out Nattie who was sent back to the outside of the ring. Asuka took advantage and trapped Bayley with the Asuka lock, giving her the submission victory.
Qualifying matches continue on this coming Friday’s SmackDown and on next week’s Raw to determine the final two entrants in both matches. SmackDown will see Carmelo Hayes battle Trick Williams and Damian Priest while Nia Jax will face Charlotte Flair and Kiana James. Next week’s Raw will have Raquel Rodriguez face IYO SKY and Kairi while Bronson Reed faces Jey Uso and Original El Grande Americano.
