2018 WWE Elimination Chamber: Full match card

Here are the scheduled matches for Sunday night’s Elimination Chamber pay-per-view.

The Road to WrestleMania makes its way through Sin City this weekend, as WWE will send the Elimination Chamber into Las Vegas. With WrestleMania just over a month away, we’ll get a vivid image of what the main event will look like after Sunday night.

A lot is on the line in Vegas, as two Elimination Chamber matches will set the stage for the grandest night in sports entertainment. WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar will find out who his next challenger will be, the women get their first-ever taste of the unforgiving structure, and a battle of mind games will come full circle as the T-Mobile Arena gets turned upside down.

Before the actual Elimination Chamber event gets underway, the Kick-Off Show will heat things up and get fans ready for a huge night of action. Included in the pre-show will be a tag team match between Balor Club brothers Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson and The Miztourage (Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel). The winners of this tag match could punch their ticket for a future WWE Raw Tag Team Title shot, and could have an idea of who they could face later in the evening.

Getting into the actual event, the women of WWE have a huge night ahead of them. The Raw Women’s Championship is the main focus in a pair of matches. The first being Nia Jax facing off against the undefeated Asuka. Nia has made it crystal clear she holds no fear of the “Empress of Tomorrow,” and has a golden opportunity this weekend. Asuka has hinted that she will face the Raw Women’s Champion at WrestleMania. But if Nia can beat her at Elimination Chamber, she will be added to the WrestleMania equation and turn it into a triple threat match

Speaking of the Raw Women’s Championship, it will be defended inside the confines of the Elimination Chamber. This is huge, as it will be the first time this career-altering match will feature an all-female lineup. Reigning champion Alexa Bliss leads the charge, as she will defend her title against Bayley, Mandy Rose, Sasha Banks, Sonya Deville and multi-time former champion Mickie James. Should Alexa have a “Blissful” title defense, she’ll look ahead to Asuka and a trip to New Orleans.

Matt Hardy has been all over the place since his triumphant return to WWE a year ago. Over the last few months, we’ve seen the “woken” transformation and a complete overhaul of the man most of us grew up watching. But what lies ahead is a challenge from a master of mindgames in Bray Wyatt. The two have been going back and forth for weeks and will collide in Vegas in a big encounter. One has to wonder what Jeff Hardy has been thinking about his brother’s change in the time he’s been recovering from an injury?

The WWE Raw Tag Team Titles will also be on the line, as Cesaro and Sheamus look to overturn the challenge of Titus Worldwide. Apollo Crews and Titus O’Neil have been impressive in recent weeks, and with the help of Dana Brooke, have secured a shot at the titles. Can she calculate a way for the challengers to pull off the upset, or will The Bar continue their reign of dominance?

Finally, we get to what could be the most destructive Elimination Chamber match in the nearly 15-year history of the concept. The winner will earn their shot at the main event of WrestleMania and a Universal Championship match against Brock Lesnar. For the first time, seven men will enter the chamber and wreak havoc like never before. Braun Strowman will join Elias, Finn Balor, John Cena, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and The Miz inside the chamber. Careers are almost guaranteed to be changed forever, but the winner will dance all the way to New Orleans in April.
