5 WWE Superstars who desperately need a win at Elimination Chamber 2020

This year’s Elimination Chamber PPV has a few titles set to be defended in what's an underwhelming card on the whole. No controversial title changes are expected as the most coveted prizes of the company will not be on the line. In hindsight, that makes sense as WrestleMania is less than a month away and there isn’t enough time to build fresh feuds.

That being said, there are still a few important matches lined up which could prove pivotal in some of the ongoing storylines. It can’t be denied that few of the Superstars need a win more than their counterparts. After all, a victory at the upcoming PPV will serve as a huge boost for the momentum of those who will be competing inside the squared circle tonight.

In this article, we will take a look at five WWE Superstars who desperately need to pick up a win in their match at Elimination Chamber. So, without further ado, let’s begin.

#5 Street Profits

Street Profits deserve a good run with the Tag Team itles

The Street Profits won the RAW Tag Team Championship after defeating Seth Rollins and Buddy Murphy at Super ShowDown. They are now set to defend their titles against ‘The Architect’ and his disciple at the Elimination Chamber PPV.

Given the fact that Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford are immensely over with the crowd, it is essential for them to pick another victory over the former tag team champions.

As usual, the AoP will be present to interfere in the match and turn the tide in favor of Rollins. He can also rely on dirty techniques to win the title but by now, Dawkins and Ford must have learned their lesson. They should also be clever inside the squared circle especially when they know that Kevin Owens has got their back.

Street Profits have managed to generate a lot of buzz ever since moving to the main roster. However, it took them some time to get their hands on the Tag Team gold. Now that they have the championship, it only makes sense to let them have a decent run as the champions. After all, they can always afford to lose the championship at WrestleMania.

#4 Andrade

Andrade must pick a win tonight to re-establish his dominance

Andrade’s United States Championship reign was stagnant for a bit owing to his month-long suspension from the company after he was found to have breached the WWE wellness policy. Following his return, the Mexican Superstar was involved in a Gauntlet Match for the Tuwaiq trophy at Super ShowDown but was eliminated by R-Truth.

Following that, Andrade has teamed up with Angel Garza and the two have been involved in a feud with Rey Mysterio and Humberto Carrillo.

At Elimination Chamber, Andrade will face Carrillo in a Singles match with his United States Championship on the line. It is quite possible that we will see Garza interfering in this match but that will most likely invite Mysterio to come out and help in restoring the balance.

Despite that, Andrade should pick a win tonight in his match against Carrillo. He has lost a lot of momentum and if he loses his title, his credibility will take a major hit. Instead, WWE must allow him to retain his Championship tonight and build-up for a WrestleMania match against Carrillo or Mysterio.

#3 Braun Strowman

Can Braun Strowman successfully defend his title tonight?

Braun Strowman is set to defend his Intercontinental Championship against Shinsuke Nakamura, Sami Zayn, and Cesaro in a 3-on-1 handicap match. They have been engaged in a feud for a long time and Zayn finally tricked the ‘Monster Among Men’ into agreeing to a title rematch with a strange stipulation.

We have seen Strowman take on multiple opponents in the past. At times, he has been successful like at last year’s WrestleMania where he single-handedly won the RAW Tag Team Championship. However, more often than not, such situations lead to Strowman taking serious bumps that allow his opponents to establish dominance.

That is something which should not happen at Elimination Chamber tonight. After spending years as one of the top Superstars of the company, Strowman finally won his first Singles title after beating Nakamura. He has been booked like a monster so far and it would be wise to have him prevail in the upcoming title match even though the odds are stacked against him.

#2 Drew Gulak

A victory over Daniel Bryan will be massive for Drew Gulak

Drew Gulak is one of those talented Superstars who is not used to his full potential on the main roster. He was briefly engaged in a feud with Braun Strowman but back then, his role was more of a catalyst as he only hyped up the match between the ‘Monster Among Men’ and Tyson Fury.

Gulak once again returned to his old ways with his PowerPoint Presentations and this time his subject was Daniel Bryan.

For weeks, we saw Gulak trying to help all of Bryan’s opponents by claiming that he knows how to defeat the man who started the ‘Yes!’ movement. Hence, an irked Bryan wanted Gulak to step inside the ring and face him at the Elimination Chamber PPV. Although Bryan is a much bigger Superstar, it’s his opponent who should win the match tonight.

Gulak is a talented Superstar and deserves to be involved in engaging storylines. If reports are to be believed, Bryan himself pitched the idea of working with Gulak and Heath Slater as he is friends with them in real life and believes that they are not being used properly.

A win over Bryan will be the perfect way to attract more attention towards Gulak. Moreover, this will allow the creatives to extend this feud to set up a WrestleMania match between the two Superstars.

#1 Heavy Machinery

Otis and Tucker could become the new SmackDown Tag Team Champions!

While the Rusev-Lana-Bobby Lashley love angle fetched a lot of criticism, the WWE Universe has enjoyed the storyline involving Otis, Mandy Rose, and Dolph Ziggler. ‘The Showoff’ seems to be a thorn in the flesh and has clouded Otis’ fairytale romance with his shrewd games.

Tonight, there’s a huge opportunity for the WWE Creatives to script an engaging chapter in this ongoing feud.

The Heavy Machinery will be competing for the SmackDown Tag Team Championship against five other teams inside the Elimination Chamber. Last week, they defeated most of those teams in a Tag Team Gauntlet match and were inches away from gaining an important advantage before they were eliminated by Bobby Roode and Ziggler.

It will be epic if Otis pins Ziggler to win the first-ever WWE titles for the Heavy Machinery. Since Roode and Ziggler will be the last to enter the match, it will give Otis and Tucker enough time to prove themselves worthy of being the champions. Otis is immensely over with the crowd and hopefully, WWE will strike when the iron is hot.
