5 Things we learned from WWE Elimination Chamber 2020

#2 WWE is in safe hands

Elimination Chamber on Sunday was, if anything, an opportunity for some of the younger, or lesser used and established stars in WWE, to showcase their talents.

For the first time in a while, not only were the WWE Champion and Universal Champion absent from the show, but their respective WrestleMania challengers in Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns were also nowhere to be seen, leaving the card – on paper at least – decidedly short on some of WWE’s current megastars.

While it was odd to not have either of the two main men’s titles defended or even really discussed on the show was a little odd, but the event as a whole didn’t necessarily suffer for it. The likes of Drew Gulak and Aleister Black stood up to the task and delivered with excellent performances – admittedly with contrasting results.

Whether this puts them closer to the forefront in WWE’s longer-term thinking remains to be seen, but there’s little doubt that, in terms of depth of talent, the company has very little to fear going forward.
