WWE Elimination Chamber 2017: 21 Best Internet Reactions To Bray Wyatt’s Win

The steel structure had a fresher look than in previous incarnations of the match, and befitted the standard of talent taking part in the contest.

Yes, Bray Wyatt defeated John Cena, AJ Styles, Dean Ambrose, The Miz, and Baron Corbin in the new (and maybe improved?) Chamber. AJ then demanded a one-on-one match with Bray Wyatt for the WWE Championship when Daniel Bryan’s music hit.

American Alpha retained their tag titles in a tornado tag match that only ever really came across as the filler match it was.

If Cena wasn’t going to head to WrestleMania as the champion, why take the belt off A.J. Styles and not just have Styles lose the belt inside the Chamber?

SmackDown returned with their latest brand-exclusive show, Elimination Chamber, delivering a fantastic main event that sadly sets up a “main event” for WrestleMania that will probably go fourth or fifth from the top.

For the first time, a WWE pay per view boasted three women’s matches – headlined in that respect by a championship win for long-serving superstar Naomi who toppled Alexa Bliss to win her first career title. Naomi, after almost eight years in the company, finally added another WWE accomplishment to her Best Dance Moves of the Year 2013 Slammy Award: the WWE Smackdown Women’s Championship. Becky Lynch and Mickie James was bad, and Kalisto and Apollo Crews beating Dolph Ziggler in a 2-on-1 handicap match was one that you could miss in it’s entirety. He was also Smackdown Tag Team Champion as the leader of Wyatt family.

Here’s hoping we don’t see a 10-minute video of Naomi’s career. He said that he would walk you to paradise if they walk with him and if you stand in his way he’ll burn them in the fire Welcome to the era of Wyatt.

Becky Lynch created a masked alter-ego named La Luchadora in order to defeat Alexa Bliss in a non-title match. Later on in the show, Nikki Bella was cutting a promo backstage, when Natalya attacked once again. Reports on the actual attendance vary from 78,000 to 93,173 and Hogan handed Andre the Giant his first WWE loss in 15 years in the main event. It looks like Baron Corbin will be challenging Dean Ambrose for the Intercontinental Championship after Corbin cost Ambrose a chance to win. There have been rumors of a mixed tag match for Wrestlemania with Cena and Nikki facing Miz and Maryse. The fact that it’s still unclear who will turn on whom is a great wrinkle; Orton turning on Bray seems obvious, but don’t count out a nuclear babyface run for Bray where he realizes his true family was with him all along. The team of Rhyno and Heath Slater were eliminated, bringing in the American Alpha.

As a singles competitor, Naomi has shown she can hold her own. This leaves Wyatt all alone for Orton to pick apart at WrestleMania.

-Becky Lynch beat Mickie James. It adds a little more drama to the story than if Orton beat up Wyatt so soon after Elimination Chamber. Some combination of Miz, Harper, Ziggler, Corbin, and maybe Kalisto and Apollo Crews. It’s relatively minor because the Women’s matches are going to be no higher than the pre-game show at Wrestlemania anyway, but it could have been handled much better here.
