10 Best WWE Matches Of 2017

5. Men's Elimination Chamber - Elimination Chamber

After 15 years of forcing their performers to take horrible bumps on exposed steel grates inside the Elimination Chamber, WWE finally introduced a version of the structure with padding on the outside. 

This baby version of the Chamber debuted in 2017 with a match for the WWE Championship. John Cena was defending against AJ Styles, Bray Wyatt, Baron Corbin, Dean Ambrose, and The Miz, all of whom had recent history with at least one other member of the match. This made for quite the tussle. 

Intermingling narrative threads, combined with some top-notch grappling, produced one of the strongest Chamber matches in some time, with the final three coming down to Cena, Styles, and Wyatt. 

The Eater of Worlds was able to take down both men, pinning AJ after countering the Phenomenal Forearm to become WWE Champion for the very first time. 

 This just made the match even sweeter; many worried that the ship had sailed on Wyatt as a top guy, so to see him finally capture the prize he had worked so hard for was fantastic.
