Tom Phillips sort of corrected the mistake a few minutes later, but that doesn't excuse Byron Saxton for getting the entire purpose of these pre-Elimination Chamber tag-team matches wrong. To him, Bayley and Sasha Banks "earned the opportunity to enter first" on Sunday by losing on Raw.

That's some skewed logic.

They didn't want to "earn" that dubious distinction. It's not a good thing for anyone to start the Chamber match, and that's something even the most jolly of colour commentators should have known. This little slip came right before the three-team match on SmackDown.
