The Elimination Chamber is finally over, and it was a great show with an amazing crowd. The WWE Universe saw some new rivalries bloom during the matches. According to reports, some of these could be listed for WrestleMania matches.

As per Wrestling Observer Daily, WWE has confirmed two matches coming off the Elimination Chamber. The first match that was set up in the Men’s Elimination Chamber match was AJ Styles vs. LA Knight. Meanwhile, the second match that was listed for WrestleMania was Randy Orton vs. Logan Paul for the United States title.

During the Men’s Elimination Chamber match, all six superstars tried to destroy each other with vicious moves. At one point, it looked like Knight was gaining the upper hand on the whole match, but AJ Styles came and brutally attacked him with a chair. Although they have been in a mix since the build-up to their fatal 4-way match at Royal Rumble, WWE is seemingly focusing on their 1-on-1 rivalry.

Meanwhile, Orton dropped off the best performance since his return to the Survivor Series. He eliminated both Kevin Owens and Logan Paul with an RKO and survived until the final two with Drew McIntyre. At one point, it looked like The Viper was going to win the whole thing after hitting an RKO on the Scottish Warrior. However, Paul knocked out Orton with brass knuckles, resulting in McIntyre’s win. 

As of now, there are only four confirmed matches for the WrestleMania card, but these two matches can soon be confirmed in the upcoming weeks. It will be interesting to see what transpires in the upcoming weeks as the Showcase of Immortals gets closer and closer.

“The Tribal Chief” Roman Reigns, will defend his title against the Royal Rumble winner, Cody Rhodes, in the main event. Although, until Cody won the Royal Rumble, it was pretty predictable that they would fight each other at the Show of Shows. However, it got so much more interesting with The Rock‘s inclusion. Only time will tell whether Cody finishes the story or not. 

The women’s Royal Rumble winner Bayley turned face and chose her former best friend Iyo Sky as her opponent for WrestleMania. The other two matches are pretty straightforward, with both winners of the Elimination Chamber matches, Drew and Becky Lynch, facing the champions, Seth Rollins and Rhea Ripley, at the Show of Shows.
