Jim Ross Blog: Elimination Chamber Predictions, Where Are Cena & Bryan Headed?, Batista, Roman Reigns’ Role Tonight, More

A new Jim Ross blog has been posted over at JRsBarBQ.com, which takes a look at tonight's WWE Elimination Chamber PPV, and the following are some highlights:

With absolutely NO inside info on tonight's show, here are my uneducated guesses on the outcome of The Elimination Chamber:

Orton retains the WWE World Title but I'm still not sure that it will be Orton vs. Batista at WM30.

Curious to see how many talents from the Elimination Chamber main event become involved in issues that carry them into WM30. Where John Cena and Daniel Bryan head out of tonight's PPV is of interest to me.

Because the Shield seems to be simmering on internally boiling over, IE Roman Reigns going it alone at some point, I'm picking the Wyatt Family to win the 6 man tag.

Batista will dominate Alberto Del Rio.

Jack Swagger provides Big E a solid win in defending the IC Title which is tepid at this point in time. I hope these two former amateur wrestlers have the time to raise some eyebrows.

It might be a good night to see the Usos win the Tag Team Titles over the New Age Outlaws unless that title change is saved for WM30. Nonetheless, I'm leaning to the Usos winning in Minny.

Traditional thinking would have Titus O'Neil beating his former tag partner Darren Young. Not sure that happens but I'm still thinking that O'Neil cheats to win.

In the pre show match, I've got the Rhodes Brothers winning over (likely) hometown hero Curtis Axel and Ryback.

Hopeful to hear some saucy info and opinion from the panel of all stars tonight including Mark HenryRey Mysterio, and the newly married Miz.

The Elimination Chamber needs to leave the air tonight with more questions than answers and a few, timely surprises. In other words, in the 'old days' ambitious bookers would make a major statement or two on the last show on PPV leading into the biggest event of the year which is also obviously on PPV.

The Elimination Chamber isn't about wins and loses to me but more about continuing to build momentum to WM30 via the tune in factor Monday night of the WWE's loaded RAW from balmy Green Bay that's loaded with star power.
