While the RAW Elimination Chamber is predictable, the SmackDown match has a few possible winners. However, with that being said, it absolutely needs to be Cesaro who comes out victorious. Several factors swing in his direction, the most obvious of which is that he is one of the best wrestlers on the planet.

Cesaro is a machine in the ring, with bags of energy and power for days. His promo skills have also improved over the years, thanks to his appearances on UpUpDownDown. The Swiss Superman also cut a fantastic promo last week on Talking Smack, showcasing his passion for the business.

In the end, it will likely come down to Cesaro and Daniel Bryan. After a world-class exchange between both men, it should be the seven-time Tag Team Champion who wins. The stipulation of the winner of the Elimination Chamber Match getting a shot at Roman Reigns on the same night suits Cesaro much more than it does for Bryan.

A Universal Championship match between Reigns and Bryan needs a minimum of one month of build due to the multi-layered story between both stars. It isn't possible to cram so much storytelling in a night of action. On the other hand, Cesaro's story with Reigns is yet to be told.

All The Swiss Superman needs at Elimination Chamber is a victory inside the dreaded structure before taking The Tribal Chief to his limit later on the show. This would turn Cesaro into an overnight main-event star. He deserves it as much as anyone right now, and Elimination Chamber is his opportunity to prove it to the world.
