While John Cena defeated Finn Balor and Braun Strowman bested Kane, Elias competed against Matt Hardy.
The heart of the matter
Elias went toe-to-toe with Matt Hardy in the Elimination Chamber qualifying matchup. However, Bray Wyatt’s graphic flashed on the screen as the lights went off briefly.
Elias took advantage of the distraction provided by Wyatt and defeated Matt Hardy after hitting the latter with a Drift Away. Speaking about the victory that earned him a spot in the Men’s Elimination Chamber Match, Elias disregarded the fact that Wyatt’s distraction may have cost Hardy the match.
Furthermore, Elias also spoke about walking the road to WrestleMania—
“I’ve walked down many roads in my life, right now I’m walking down the road to WrestleMania. And the only thing in my way is the Elimination Chamber. And that’s next on my list."
What’s next?
Elias, John Cena, and Braun Strowman and three other male RAW Superstars are set to compete in the Men’s Elimination Chamber Match which takes place at the RAW-branded Elimination Chamber PPV on 25 February.
