Welcome once again to Tybo’s Talks! I am Tybo, and I’m sure by now you know that I am the ‘Five Star General’ of this operation we call SLTD Wrestling.
It’s a brand new year, so I’m starting 2022 strong with getting back to the basics and starting to do some writing. This is the third of a new series ‘Five Possible Outcomes…’ this month it’s Elimination Chamber
For anyone that is keeping a score of the ten possible outcomes I have predicted, only three have actually happened. Being 30% correct is a very poor score so let’s hope I’m right with more this time.
ONE: Reigns Retires Goldberg
It had already been widely reported that this is the last match on Goldberg’s contract, so if the status hasn’t changed I can’t see him winning the match. That being said I don’t think Reigns should just beat Goldberg. Reigns is on the run of his life, or ‘god mode’ as he calls it. I think it would be a huge feather in Reigns’ hat to say he has beat everyone and even retired a WCW Legend and WWE Hall of Famer.
Now, Goldberg’s Saudi win record is something to look at, but I honestly don’t think WWE would stop the momentum of Reigns for a cheap Goldberg pop would they?!
TWO: The WWE Championship at Wrestlemania?
I don’t understand how WWE are unsure about what to do for the WWE Championship match at Wrestlemania, even within this match you could make numerous championship matches.
- Seth Rollins vs AJ Styles
- Bobby Lashley vs Seth Rollins vs AJ Styles
- Riddle vs Seth Rollins vs AJ Styles
Then there is the possible additions of superstars without a match at this point, Edge, Kevin Owens, Randy Orton to name a few, there are so many options and combinations to make a great set of matches I’m really not sure what WWE is thinking.
THREE: What Version Of Bliss?
I was convinced this would be either Sasha Banks or Bayley as the surprise entrant, but Alexa Bliss was announced on Raw. I’m not mad, but where or what is WWE doing with Sasha Banks?!
I think the main outcome for this one will depend on the version of Bliss we are going to get? ‘The Feind’, ‘The Goddess’ or something different? Personally, I really enjoyed when Bliss was with Wyatt, but he isn’t there anymore so to step back into that seems a little pointless.
I think the best way to go is to have The Goddess back, but with a little bit of that twisted mentality and that she could snap at any time. I think Bliss should have a great showing in the Chamber, but ultimately there are more deserving women in the match who should get the win.
FOUR: Liv Gets One More Shot
I really think WWE could build something special by having the ultimate underdog story come to a head at Wrestlemania. The Liv Morgan vs Becky Lynch story was something fresh and new, and I personally was a huge fan.
I think there is still mileage left in this one and the idea of Liv outlasting in the Elimination Chamber is something that could really push her to another level. Then having her go onto face and beat the woman who transcended the women’s division would make Liv a megastar.
Now more than ever WWE need to break the cycle of the horsewomen always being on top. The likes of Liv Morgan, Doudrop, Nicki A.S.H and Rhea Ripley all need to be built in the same way.
FIVE: The Biggest Swerve for the Biggest Show!
This one is a bit out there but stick with it for a minute.
There is a small possibility that WWE could be planning a huge swerve, that could turn everything on its head. It would all start with two new champions at Elimination Chamber.
So, It would start with Goldberg winning the Universal Championship after Lesnar cost Reigns the title, just like Reigns did to Lesnar at Royal Rumble. I know, Goldberg’s contract is apparently ending, but he could easily have signed an extension through Wrestlemania.
Then Lesnar would go on to win the Elimination Chambers match and become the new WWE Champions. Although this seems unlikely it’s important to remember that he would have to be beaten clean(ish) as it’s in the Chamber. This seems unlikely with him heading into the main event of Wrestlemania.
This would mean Wrestlemania will have (what WWE deems) a marque match for the Universal Championship with Goldberg walking in as champion. Then still they still have Lesnar vs Reigns, with Reigns eventually beating Lesnar for the WWE Championship.
I did say this one was a bit far out but, it would solve a lot of the current problems and not a lot of people are expecting Reigns to drop the Universal Championship.
