Watching the six-woman main event on Raw, you can’t help but think that we’re walking into a disaster with the first women’s Elimination Chamber match on Sunday.

It’s clear that Mandy Rose is greener than grass, and Sonya Deville isn’t too far beyond her. Both looked out of sorts in the tag match, with Mandy in particular looking lost and blowing basic moves throughout.

If they’re involvement in the chamber match goes beyond a few minutes, it could spell disaster. The only potential saving grace is that both might be able to hide in a multi-woman match where they aren’t the focus.

But this definitely bears watching at the PPV: How will Absolution be handled during the match?
