WWE Women’s Title #1 Contendership Elimination Chamber Match
Asuka vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Rhea Ripley vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Tiffany Stratton vs. Kiana James

This was a good womens chamber match. They used the chamber well and everyone got a chance to shine especially someone newer like Kiana. Rodriguez continues to show promise and Rhea winning is no shock as she will be the face of the womens division for years to come. Though a Rhea vs Jade Wrestlemania match sounds awful given Jades track record.

3.5 / 5

WWE Women’s Intercontinental Title Match
Becky Lynch (c) vs. AJ Lee

Becky really had to carry this and even at 12 minutes it felt super rushed. The thought behind bringing AJ back in mid 2025 then doing nothing with her only to have a ring rusted AJ Lee have her first singles match in a decade in Chicago makes no sense. It certainly hurt the match quite a lot.

Score :

1.5 / 5

WWE World Heavyweight Title Match
CM Punk (c) vs. Finn Balor

At no point did anyone believe Finn would win the belt from Punk in his hometown at his home arena. Still this was a good match with Finn carrying it in moments. The man is on a multi year streak of pretty much having good matches but still being so underused.

3 / 5

Undisputed WWE Title #1 Contendership Elimination Chamber Match
Randy Orton vs. Cody Rhodes vs. LA Knight vs. Trick Williams vs. Logan Paul (w/Austin Theory & Paul Heyman) vs. Je’Von Evans

What a poor main event. I hate that we don’t always use the Chamber as a weapon or add on to where here it just felt like confinement without the danger. Orton is a safe win as hes ol reliable.
