The last major stop on the Road to WrestleMania 38
The last major stop on the Road to WrestleMania 38

The Road to WrestleMania 38 has officially begun and WWE will be heading to Saudi Arabia for the last major stop on it, Elimination Chamber 2022. The premium live event is set to take place on February 19, 2022, at the Jeddah Super Dome in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Elimination Chamber is one of the most interesting and brutal stipulation match types in WWE history. With less than three weeks to go for the show, the company has already started the build towards it by announcing two massive matches on RAW this past week. If these two matches are anything to go by, we are in for an amazing show in Saudi Arabia this time.

Let's take a look at the full match-card predictions for Elimination Chamber 2022. Be sure to comment down and let us know your thoughts and predictions on the same. What twists could WWE have on this show to spice up WrestleMania 38?


#7 Roman Reigns (c) vs. Sheamus for the Universal Championship at Elimination Chamber

Universal Champion Roman Reigns needs an opponent to face at WWE Elimination Chamber 2022. With just a couple of weeks to go for the show, it would not be a good idea to have Reigns start a major feud against someone like Drew McIntyre or Big E. WWE would ideally want to save these for the post-WrestleMania season, maybe even for SummerSlam 2022.

As for now, we might see someone like Sheamus step up and face The Tribal Chief at Elimination Chamber. This would definitely be a filler feud with Reigns retaining his title in Saudi Arabia before moving on to his massive WrestleMania 38 clash against 'The Beast Incarnate' Brock Lesnar.

Roman Reigns could have another role to play later on in the show in the WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match. More on that later in this article.

Prediction: Roman Reigns retains the Universal Championship

#6 Becky Lynch (c) vs. Lita for the RAW Women's Championship at Elimination Chamber

One of the two matches already made official for Elimination Chamber 2022 is that for the RAW Women's Championship. This past week on the red brand, Lita showed up and challenged Becky Lynch for her title. Lynch accepted the challenge, and the two will now face each other at the show in Saudi Arabia later this month.

This would be Lita's first one-on-one WWE match in ten years. She was a part of the Women's Royal Rumble bout this year but was unable to win it. As exciting as it is to see a legend like her return and challenge for a title, she'll definitely put over Big Time Becks in the match.

It is to be seen whether Lita will continue to wrestle after this clash as well and compete at WrestleMania 38. As for Becky Lynch, a victory over a legend like Lita would be a huge moment for her before going on to a bigger challenge at WrestleMania 38.

Prediction: Becky Lynch retains the RAW Women's Championship


#5 The Usos (c) vs. The Viking Raiders for the SamckDown Tag Team Championship

SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos could defend their titles against The Viking Raiders at the show in Saudi Arabia.

The champions and the number one contenders had a backstage segment on the blue brand last week. With just over a couple of weeks to go for the Elimination Chamber event, WWE might end up booking a match between these two teams.

With such a small roster and already having feuded and defeated New Day, The Usos don't really have a credible opponent left. The truth is that no other team currently has the momentum to defeat them.

If this bout happens, Jimmy and Jey Uso would definitely be the favorites to retain against Erik and Ivar. We might then see a multi-team tag team match at WrestleMania 38.

Prediction: The Usos retain the SmackDown Tag Team Championships

#4 Damian Priest (c) vs. Kevin Owens for the United States Championship

Damian Priest could defend his United States Championship against Kevin Owens at Elimination Chamber 2022. KO recently became the first WWE Superstar to pin Damian Priest on the main roster and naturally deserves a title shot.

This past week on Monday Night RAW, Owens was determined to enter the WWE Championship match in Saudi Arabia. However, he was unable to defeat Austin Theory in the qualification bout. This could be a hint that the company could be planning to have him in the United States title picture instead.

If this match happens, we might see Priest retain his title somehow before setting up a bigger clash against KO at WrestleMania 38.

Prediction: Damian Priest retains the United States Championship


#3 Drew McIntyre and Mansoor vs. Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss at Elimination Chamber

One of the constants of the mega-shows in Saudi Arabia is WWE Superstar Mansoor.

He has picked up some major victories in his home country against the likes of Cesaro, Dolph Ziggler, and Mustafa Ali. He even won the 51-man Battle Royal at WWE Super ShowDown 2019.

This year as well, the company would definitely book him on the card. We might see him going up against someone like Happy Corbin, who is a natural heel and can get a great reaction from the crown in Saudi Arabia.

Since Drew McIntyre has already been feuding against Corbin and Madcap Moss, he could team up with Mansoor to face the duo. As has been the case previously, expect him to pick up the victory with McIntyre and celebrate with his fans there.

Prediction: Mansoor and Drew McIntyre win

#2 SmackDown Women's Championship Elimination Chamber match: Charlotte Flair (c) vs. Shayna Baszler vs. Sasha Banks vs. Naomi vs. Aliyah vs. Natalya

WWE has done several "firsts" when it comes to women's wrestling in Saudi Arabia over the last few years, and we can witness another "first" at Elimination Chamber 2022. This would be the first women's Elimination Chamber match in the country with Charlotte Flair putting her title on the line against five challengers.

The five stars in question could be Shayna Baszler, Sasha Banks, Naomi, Aliyah, and Natalya, all of whom have had some sort of interaction with The Queen recently.

This would also be a "first" for Flair as she has never competed in an Elimination Chamber match so far in her WWE career. Even after that, The Queen would be the favorite to have a successful title defense at the show and walk out with gold still around her waist.

According to recent reports, 2022 Women's Royal Rumble winner Ronda Rousey will be facing Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women's Championship at WrestleMania 38. Going into such a massive match, WWE would like to give a strong booking to Flair at the show in Saudi Arabia.

Prediction: Charlotte Flair retains the SmackDown Women's Championship

#1 WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match - Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Brock Lesnar vs. Seth Rollins vs. AJ Styles vs. Riddle vs. Austin Theory

The second match already made official for the show is the WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match. Bobby Lashley is set to face a massive challenge as he will defend his title against Brock Lesnar, Seth Rollins, AJ Styles, Riddle, and Austin Theory at the show.

The All Mighty already has experience being in this match type as he has previously won an Elimination Chamber match back in 2006. As for the other competitors, only AJ Styles and Seth Rollins have previously competed in this match type.

This would be the first time that The Beast Incarnate would be stepping inside the Chamber and it would be interesting to see the amount of destruction he could cause.

As for the result, it is pretty tough to predict who would win this match. There is no single favorite and almost everyone except Theory has a chance to walk out with the WWE Championship around their waists. While Brock Lesnar seems to be a favorite on paper, we might see Reigns once again cost him the title at the show.

Our pick would be AJ Styles, who has been away from the WWE title picture for a very long time and deserves one more reign. There are several amazing matches that he could have at WrestleMania 38. Styles vs. Edge at The Show of Shows for the WWE Championship could be a big-money match!

Prediction: AJ Styles becomes the new WWE Champion
