WWE Elimination Chamber 2017 Results Predictions

7. Apollo Crews & Kalisto Vs. Dolph Ziggler

This is comfortably the weirdest match on the card, and there’s a strong chance it gets shunted to the Kickoff Show. Booking two babyfaces against one heel is an odd dynamic for a handicap match, as it immediately presents the heel, not the faces, as the one battling the odds. Still, these three are more than talented enough to make it work, and this should be a fun, athletic match.

WWE finally pulled the trigger on Dolph Ziggler’s long-overdue heel turn a few weeks ago, but it has coincided with a slide down the card. Instead of battling for the WWE and Intercontinental Championships, Dolph now finds himself warring with two of SmackDown’s forgotten men. He got overconfident and took a direct loss to Crews on this week’s SmackDown, but had the last laugh after beating both of his PPV opponents down with a steel chair, and will head into the match full of steam.

Dolph collects losses like nobody’s business, but there’s little sense in him losing here. Neither Kalisto nor Crews are going anywhere at the moment, and both are deeply-rooted in the lower-midcard. Expect Ziggler to steal the pinfall in relatively quick time, probably over Kalisto.

Winner: Dolph Ziggler.
