5 Betrayals that can happen at Elimination Chamber 2022 

Elimination Chamber 2022 is just a few days away, and it's the last premium live event that WWE will host ahead of WrestleMania 38. It takes place in Saudi Arabia, making it the first edition in four years to not go by the "Crown Jewel" or "Super ShowDown" name.

The main match, of course, is the Elimination Chamber match for the WWE Championship, as well as the Chamber match to determine the RAW Women's title contender at WrestleMania 38.

It will be a crucial turning point, and these are the possible betrayals that can happen at the show:

#5. Dominik turns on Rey Mysterio at Elimination Chamber

After the "It couple vs. Grit couple" feud ended at Royal Rumble, the two Hall of Famers would go on to take a small break. Neither had appearances in the men's or women's Royal Rumble, and The Miz and Maryse have continued to appear on television.

Since then, they have begun a feud with Rey and Dominik Mysterio. Now, towards the end of 2021, the father-son duo were on a losing streak, seemingly picking up losses every week. It was then reported by Andrew Zarian of the Mat Men podcast that the break-up angle between the two was to start soon.

These reports were credible because it was clear that there was friction between the father-son duo on-screen. However, by January, they began to pick up momentum again, although the handling of them in the Royal Rumble summed up how bad the men's match was booked.

Either way, there isn't any friction at the moment, and it was recently reported that the angle was postponed. But if they're not facing each other at WrestleMania, then who will they be facing?

The only other realistic option for them is to be a part of the tag team title match at WrestleMania that usually involves multiple teams. They could finally have their moment in front of fans, with their first title win happening in the Thunderdome. They would lose it to The Usos soon after the crowds returned.

However, there could be another big twist. Dominik Mysterio could finally betray Rey Mysterio this Saturday in his match against The Miz. Elimination Chamber is the final premium live event stop on the road to WrestleMania, and this is one of the most realistic betrayals that could happen.

The best part about it is it would happen abruptly without much of a build-up, making it a surprising betrayal.

#4. Madcap Moss - Could Happy Corbin dump him at Elimination Chamber?

Madcap Moss is set to face Drew McIntyre in a Falls Count Anywhere match at Elimination Chamber 2022. It's going to be a brutal, one-sided match with an obvious outcome.

The only unfortunate aspect of this bout at the upcoming event is that it is leading to more underwhelming plans for Drew McIntyre - a match against Happy Corbin at WrestleMania 38.

That seems to be a dull match to give McIntyre, who has been one of the cornerstones of WWE in the last couple of years. He went from facing Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley in two consecutive WWE title matches at WrestleMania 36 and 37 to facing Corbin.

It's a big dip, but it's only because WWE already planned the Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar match for WrestleMania 38.

As for Moss, he has been entertaining in his role. He's done a good job of getting heat with his cheap tactics and poor jokes, making him the perfect companion for Happy Corbin.

However, he could face betrayal from Corbin post-match when he inevitably gets brutalized by The Scottish Warrior. It would likely serve as a way to get heat on Happy Corbin ahead of the seemingly targeted WrestleMania clash against Drew McIntyre.

#3. Sonya Deville "betrays" Charlotte Flair at Elimination Chamber?

Sonya Deville will be making another rare in-ring appearance at Elimination Chamber when she teams up with SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair to face her rival Naomi and Ronda Rousey.

Deville has been feuding with Naomi for months now, and while it has dragged on longer than fans would have liked, it isn't the worst slow-burn feud that WWE has done.

Following Naomi's failure to capture the SmackDown Women's Championship, Rousey came out for the save and the collision involved all four women, setting up the clash at Elimination Chamber 2022.

It seems to be a case of WWE wanting to use Ronda Rousey's star power to stack up the card in Saudi Arabia. It only makes sense that the babyfaces will win. And if they don't, Naomi will be taking the pinfall. It's unlikely that will happen, however.

Instead, it would be a better story if Deville, who has defended and protected Flair for months, walked out on her tag team partner. This should only happen if WWE is planning to conclude Sonya Deville's role as an on-screen figure.

It is a realistic betrayal that can happen at the Elimination Chamber premium live event.

#2. Could MVP cost Bobby Lashley the WWE Title in the Elimination Chamber?

This is one betrayal that we hope doesn't happen inside the Elimination Chamber. Last year on the road to WrestleMania, Bobby Lashley won the WWE Championship and had all the momentum in the world as the leader of The Hurt Business.

It was one of the best factions that WWE had created in a while, and fans were shocked with the decision to have Lashley kick them out before his big match against Drew McIntyre at The Grandest Stage of Them All.

This year, The All Mighty defends the WWE title inside the Elimination Chamber against five other legitimate contenders in Brock Lesnar, AJ Styles, Austin Theory, Seth Rollins, and Riddle.

Apart from Theory and Riddle, the other men are all former multi-time world champions. There is a chance that Lashley could lose the WWE title just a few weeks into his reign, which would be a shame.

The Beast Incarnate winning would guarantee that the WrestleMania main event will be a champion vs. champion, title for title match - something that most fans seem to dread.

But even if it isn't Lesnar, MVP could betray Bobby Lashley to cement the latter's face turn. It still wouldn't make any sense to do so, however, since Lashley isn't the strongest on the mic.

#1. Randy Orton betrays Riddle at Elimination Chamber 2022

Riddle will be representing RK-Bro inside the Elimination Chamber. The former RAW Tag Team Champions lost the titles to The Alpha Academy in a shocking title change on the red brand before proceeding to defeat them in a best-of-three academic challenge to become the number one contenders.

Riddle and Randy Orton still have a RAW Tag Team title shot, so it would admittedly make little sense if they broke up before the betrayal happened. But what if The Original Bro somehow walks out of the Elimination Chamber match as the new WWE Champion?

While it might seem like an unrealistic thing, there were rumors of him being talked about as the potential men's Royal Rumble winner. There were also talks about the Riddle vs. Orton match at WrestleMania being for the WWE title.

The bout doesn't need the WWE title, but it's a far better option than having Brock Lesnar win the Royal Rumble match and the world championship again. After that, The Viper could come out to congratulate Riddle, only to turn on him and set up their match at WrestleMania 38.
