Cody Wins WWE Elimination Chamber Qualifier—But All Three Are Going Anyway
The WWE Elimination Chamber qualifier on SmackDown saw Cody Rhodes defeat Sami Zayn and Jacob Fatu after Kevin Owens interference, but nobody believes this is over—all three are probably ending up in the Chamber anyway.

Meanwhile, Sami Zayn’s world title window is closing fast, Chelsea Green’s babyface turn is being engineered through WWE’s Unreal show, and AEW Dynamite delivered back-to-back shock finishes with Brody King squashing MJF while a Las Vegas crowd chanted political slogans.

You watch every week knowing exactly what’s coming, and Drew McIntyre becoming the new WWE Champion on SmackDown in Berlin? I didn’t see that […]
