John Morrison def. Mustafa Ali, Elias & Ricochet - Winner will replace Keith Lee in the United States Championship Triple Threat Match - Kickoff Show 

WWE announced during the Kickoff Show that Lacey Evans will not be able to compete in the Raw Women's Championship Match.   Asuka will still defend the title on the main card against an unnamed opponent. 

The early action was fast and frenetic and Mustafa Ali almost picked up the win by pinning Ricochet. Elias then almost won but Slapjack of RETRIBUTION broke up the pin. 

Morrison, Elias and Mustafa Ali then took turns attacking Ricochet and The Shaman Of Sexy went for Starship Pain, but The One And Only rolled out of the way. 

The former United States Champion then made a comeback and hit Mustafa Ali with a 450 Splash but Mace and T-Bar pulled their leader out of the ring. Ricochet tried to retaliate with a 450 Splash over the top rope but Mace and T-Bar caught him and tossed him into the ring post. 

T-Bar and Mace's decision ultimately proved fateful for Mustafa Ali as John Morrison rolled up the RETRIBUTION leader while his lackeys were distracted to secure the win. 

Daniel Bryan def. Kevin Owens, Jey Uso, Cesaro, King Corbin & Sami Zayn - Elimination Chamber Match - Winner will face Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship later in the show 

According to Wrestling Inc.'s Raj Giri, Asuka will no longer defend the Raw Women's Championship tonight. The panel on the Kickoff Show mentioned Asuka would face an unnamed opponent, but plans have reportedly changed. 

Cesaro and Daniel Bryan started out the match and both men battled back and forth for five minutes until King Corbin was released from his pod. The reigning King Of The Ring dominated the next section of the match but he was unable to score a pinfall or submission. 

Sami Zayn was the next man to enter the chamber but he held his pod door shut. King Corbin tried to get at Sami but Daniel Bryan caught him with a massive Dropkick into the pod. The Great Liberator then cackled at his fallen opponents, but Cesaro snuck in the other side of the pod and battered Zayn around the pod. 

All four men took turns on top before the next entrant and we had the first big spot of the match as Cesaro and Zayn fought on top of Jey Uso's pod and high up on the chamber before Cesaro Kicked Zayn to the steel floor below. We also had the first elimination as Cesaro performed a Cesaro Swing on King Corbin and locked in the Sharpshooter, forcing The Lone Wolf to tap out. 

Kevin Owens was the next man in the match and Sami Zayn tried to form an alliance with his former best friend, but KO rejected the offer and bounced the former El Generico's head off two pods. We had a flurry of finishers and signature moves shortly after which left all four men down on the mat.

Jey Uso entered the match next and he and Kevin Owens rekindled their rivalry. We then had the next big spot as Owens hit a Moonsault from the top of a pod onto the four other men in the match. He followed up with Stunners on Cesaro, Daniel Bryan and Sami Zayn and eliminated The Great Liberator. 

While the cage door was open to let Zayn out, Uso Superkicked Owens and shut the door, trapping KO's arm. The officials eventually managed to free Owens but Uso followed up with a Splash to pin his rival. This left Daniel Bryan, Cesaro and Jey Uso as the final three men. 

Cesaro was the next man eliminated after Uso caught him with a Superkick and Splash for the 1-2-3. Uso then followed up with a Splash on Daniel Bryan but the five-time world champion kicked out. Uso tried to hit a Splash from the top of the pod but Bryan got his knees up and capitalised with the Running Knee to win his third Elimination Chamber match. 

Roman Reigns def. Daniel Bryan - Universal Championship

Roman Reigns went for the Spear straight away but Daniel Bryan reversed into the Yes Lock. Reigns managed to break free and pummelled Bryan on the mat with vicious Rights and Lefts. He then Powerbombed the challenger and continued to pummel him. 

Reigns then locked in the Guillotine and the official called for the bell. The match barely went over two minutes. 

As Reigns celebrated, Edge appeared from out of nowhere and Speared The Big Dog. The Rated-R Superstar then pointed at the WrestleMania sign, making it known that he wants to face Roman Reigns at The Showcase Of The Immortals.

Riddle def. John Morrison & Bobby Lashley - United States Championship 

Ahead of the next match, we had another backstage segment between Bad Bunny and The Miz. Both men asked each other why they were at the show before Bunny Slapped The Miz. The A-Lister went to retaliate but Damian Priest stood in between both men. 

Both challengers tried to connect with offence on Lashley but the United States Champion brushed them off and took out Riddle and John Morrison on the outside. The two challengers even briefly teamed up but Lashley quickly overpowered them. 

Riddle and John Morrison got together on the outside and beat down Lashley in the corner before The All Mighty again powered out and caught Riddle with the Dominator. The action spilled to the outside again and Morrison caught Lashley with a Corkscrew Moonsault and Riddle followed up with a Floating Bro. 

The alliance between Morrison and Riddle then came to an end as Morrison pushed The Original Bro into the ring post and both men battled back and forth once they re-entered the ring. 

Later, Riddle hit Lashley with the Floating Bro in the ring. Morrison then threw Riddle out of the ring and followed up with Starship Pain to the champion, but Lashley powered out at two. MVP and Morrison then jawed on the outside and Johnny Drip Drip stole MVP's crutch. 

Morrison tried to hit Lashley with the weapon but The All Mighty ducked and locked in the Hurt Lock. Riddle broke up the submission with the crutch, though, and with Lashley in pain on the outside, Riddle seized his chance and hit Morrison with the Bro Derek to win the US Title. 

Shayna Baszler & Nia Jax def. Sasha Banks & Bianca Belair - Women's Tag Team Championship 

Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks initially hit some double team moves before the champions took control of the match and wore down The Boss. 

After a few minutes, Banks managed to collect a few near falls before Bianca Belair made the blind tag. Belair was then caught in the Kirifuda Clutch but Banks blind tagged back in. The challengers then worked well together and Banks hit a Frog Splash on Baszler for a near fall. Belair followed up with KOD but Nia Jax pulled The EST Of WWE out of the ring to save the match for her team. 

Reginald later came to the ring with some champagne and Banks locked in the Bank Statement on Nia Jax. The Irresistible Force managed to make it to the bottom rope and Reginald rolled a champagne bottle to Banks. This only distracted the SmackDown Women's Champion and Nia Jax took advantage with a Samoan Drop to pin Banks. 

Following the match, the broadcast cut backstage to show MVP talking to The Miz. 

Drew McIntyre vs. Sheamus vs. AJ Styles vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Randy Orton vs. Kofi Kingston - Elimination Chamber Match for the WWE Championship 

Jeff Hardy and Randy Orton started out the match and The Viper dominated the early going. Drew McIntyre then entered the ring and he was followed by Kofi Kingston a few minutes later. 

Kofi Kingston and Orton rekindled their rivalry from 2019 and the New Day member managed to roll-up Orton to eliminate The Apex Predator. 

Orton RKO'd Jeff Hardy and Kingston in anger. AJ Styles then asked Omos to rip off the plexiglass from his pod and The Phenomenal One entered the match early. He was unable to pin either Hardy or Kingston, though, and Omos was ordered backstage by Adam Pearce. 

Sheamus finally entered the match after a long wait and he and McIntyre immediately started trading blows before fighting to a stalemate. 

We had the next big spot a few minutes later as McIntyre Superplexed Sheamus while Styles and Hardy held on to the WWE Champion's legs. Kofi Kingston then wiped out all four men with a Dive from a pod. 

The dreams of KofiMania II were dashed not long after following a Brogue Kick from Sheamus. 

Jeff Hardy then hit McIntyre and Sheamus with a Corkscrew Moonsault from a pod and caught Styles with a Swanton Bomb. Before The Charismatic Enigma could make the cover, though, McIntyre connected with a Claymore from out of nowhere and pinned him.  

Sheamus hit McIntyre with White Noise during the next section of the match and Styles managed to connect with a 450 Splash, but the WWE Champion kicked out. 

After a brief brawl between Styles and Sheamus, McIntyre caught The Celtic Warrior with a Future Shock DDT. The Scottish Psychopath then set up for the Claymore but Sheamus countered with a Brogue Kick. Styles caught Sheamus with a Phenomenal Forearm from out of nowhere, though, to eliminate The Celtic Warrior. 

Immediately after Sheamus' elimination, Styles tried to hit McIntyre with a Phenomenal Forearm but McIntyre caught The Phenomenal One with a Claymore while he was in the air. He then covered Styles to retain the WWE Championship. 

The Miz def. Drew McIntyre - WWE Championship 

After the match, an enraged Bobby Lashley charged to the ring and beat down McIntyre. The Miz then scampered to the ring and cashed in the Money In The Bank Contract. 

McIntyre briefly kicked out of a DDT but Miz followed up with a Skull Crushing Finale to win the WWE Championship. 

Did WWE just set up the Fast Lane and WrestleMania 37 main events?
