With the Elimination Chamber taking place Sunday, what will go down on WWE SmackDown Live?
SmackDown Live is set to be an explosive night from Seattle. The Elimination Chamber is on Sunday, and each of the competitors in the match is looking to make an impact. WWE World Heavyweight Champion John Cena will be taking on Randy Orton in the main event of the show as the duo continue the road to WrestleMania.
Daniel Bryan Opener
With the Elimination Chamber taking place on Sunday, SmackDown Live started out with some of the competitors making their case for while they be champion. However, it was the local favorite that began the show.
The hometown hero, Daniel Bryan, made his way out to the ring to address his raucous fans. Bryan mentioned how great it is to be back home in Seattle. Just as Bryant was getting to enjoy a special moment, he was interrupted by The Miz to start the show.

The Miz would insult Bryan per the norm as soon as he got to the ring. Miz talked about coming the upcoming Elimination Chamber match before he was interrupted by another competitor in the match, Baron Corbin.
"Miz, you REALLY need to learn to SHUT UP!" - @BaronCorbinWWE to @MikeTheMiz. #SDLive pic.twitter.com/hGlQnFQPJ9

Before Corbin and The Miz could get going, Dean Ambrose interrupted. He mocked and made fun of both The Miz and Corbin. He hilariously quipped that The Miz looks like a shoe and made fun of Corbin’s entrance music.
Next: Ranking Royal Rumble Winners
He warned the other two that he was leaving as champion on Sunday. After Ambrose was done, A.J. Styles was the next to interrupt and start going down the list of why he was going to win the championship.
While the four of them began arguing some more, Bryan broke it up and came up with an idea. Bryan put the four of them in a Fatal 4-Way match and started it immediately to begin SmackDown Live.
