Going into Elimination Chamber, Roman Reigns is still one of the most dominant characters on SmackDown. In the Elimination Chamber match to determine the number one contender for the Universal Championship, there are a handful of competitors who are going into the event with great momentum. Most notably Cesaro and Kevin Owens.

The involvement of Jey Uso in the match could also lead to conflict with Reigns and his competitors. Could the former Tag Team Champion be torn between his forced loyalty to Head of the Table Roman Reigns and his desire for a championship shot?

Managing to get himself out of defending the Universal Championship in the Elimination Chamber is a classic heel move from Roman Reigns. This leaves him likely to become victorious in his title defense later in the night. As unlikely as it is that Roman Reigns will lose the championship, the story that he is currently telling with Paul Heyman at his side is one of the most multi-faceted in WWE. It will be exciting to see how it unfolds at Elimination Chamber.
