WWE Elimination Chamber Match Losers in Hazard of Lacking WrestleMania 39

There are solely so many spots on any given WrestleMania card, making it a definite chance {that a} high-profile title or former champion shall be left on the skin trying in at The Showcase of the Immortals.

On the heels of Saturday’s Elimination Chamber pay-per-view, there’s a clearer concept of simply who these stars could also be.

From two former SmackDown ladies’s champions to a damaging pressure of nature, these are the Superstars at risk of lacking out on probably the most prestigious card of the 12 months.

As he has so many occasions in his profession, Johnny Gargano seized the highlight provided to him on the Elimination Chamber PPV and stole the present within the same-titled males’s match together with his finest efficiency since his NXT days.

The 35-year-old was explosive, dynamic and threw warning to the wind on the middle of a few of the contest’s most memorable moments. Is that sufficient to earn him a spot on both evening of WrestleMania come April 1-2, although? It might not be.

Gargano appeared on the post-Chamber episode of Uncooked in title solely, with spouse Candice LeRae noting that he shall be again “quickly.”

How quickly? In time to construct an satisfactory story and match for ‘Mania, or will one of the outstanding members of Triple H’s time with NXT be pressured to observe from the sidelines?

Based mostly on matchups already introduced and people teased by way of latest reserving selections, the latter seems extra doubtless.

Carmella’s latest return netted her a spot within the ladies’s Elimination Chamber match, the place she was the ultimate girl defeated by winner Asuka.

Add in the truth that her story was essential to the competition itself, and you’ve got motive to imagine administration has one thing in retailer for The Princess of Staten Island.

That doesn’t essentially imply it would embrace a match at SoFi Stadium in April, although.

Chamber winner Asuka has Uncooked ladies’s champion Bianca Belair in her sights, whereas the division’s largest star, Becky Lynch, is embroiled in a feud with Injury CTRL. That doesn’t go away Carmella with many choices for a WrestleMania-worthy bout.

Maybe the Mae Younger Battle Royal returns and the chance presents itself for the previous ladies’s champion to showcase her character and skill in that setting, however the prospects of a significant contest don’t appear to be notably robust in her case.

One could be hard-pressed to discover a single star who upped his inventory Saturday evening greater than Montez Ford.

Followers and friends have lengthy touted his breakout potential, citing his explosive in-ring model and magnetic charisma. And contained in the Elimination Chamber and with the US Championship at stake, the 32-year-old backed his supporters up.

Whether or not as a solo act or with Angelo Dawkins in The Avenue Income, although, it is tough to see a state of affairs during which Ford makes the ultimate WrestleMania card as issues stand.

The tag staff titles are more likely to be on the middle of a conflict between The Usos and Sami Zayn/Kevin Owens. The U.S. title is presently held by Austin Principle, whose repeated teases and the return of John Cena on the March 6 episode of Uncooked recommend they’ll meet on The Grandest Stage of Them All.

Might Triple H devise a multi-team match for a future title alternative? Certain. Would possibly he put a bunch of fellows collectively for the Andre the Big Memorial Battle Royal? It is potential, however the WWE chief content material officer has shied away from PPV kickoff matches, doubtless in an try and preserve vitality and pleasure for the show-opener.

That severely limits the potential touchdown spots for Ford on the cardboard, maybe leaving any potential singles pushes to start within the wake of WrestleMania.

Of all of the Elimination Chamber losers to overlook the WrestleMania card, the least forgivable could be Liv Morgan.

Few have developed their personas and improved between the ropes to the identical extent because the 28-year-old, who seized the chance that got here together with her ladies’s Cash within the Financial institution victory and SmackDown Ladies’s Championship run to get herself over with audiences in a method she was not allowed to prior.

Whether or not enjoying the plucky underdog or former champion pushed to the brink by the heartbreak of shedding her title, Morgan has been a authentic star for the SmackDown ladies’s division.

Sadly, her path to WrestleMania is something however clear.

Charlotte Aptitude will defend the blue model’s title towards Rhea Ripley, a match that was made the evening after the latter received the Royal Rumble. The WWE Ladies’s Tag Staff Championships appear more likely to be a part of the feud between Becky Lynch and Injury CTRL on Uncooked.

That leaves solely the rekindling of a feud with Ronda Rousey as a possible touchdown spot for Morgan.

With Rousey and Shayna Baszler seeking to run roughshod over the SmackDown roster, it’s potential Morgan companions with Raquel Rodriguez or one other Friday evening competitor to do battle with The Baddest Lady on the Planet and her Submission Magician teammate, however that’s removed from a certainty.

Few with WrestleMania plans as unsure as Morgan have earned a spot on the cardboard greater than she has. Hopefully, Triple H and Co. will come by way of for her.
