8 HUGE WWE Elimination Chamber 2022 Predictions You Need To Know

5. Becky Lynch (c) Vs. Lita

Easily the best-built feud on this card save for some cringeworthy act-ting from Becky Lynch in their go-home contract signing, 'Big Time Becks' being forced to stare down an ultra-confident and remarkably cool Lita has mostly been seriously good stuff.

Lynch, until her wobble, was walking with the swagger of a Champion that had dusted the entire division. As somebody disassociated from that entirely, the former Women's Champion and Team Extreme stalwart hasn't been forced to respect it. By weaponising her own rich history, she's ended up cutting the best promos of her career and a brawl that broke out between the two promised chemistry and fire on the night.

The result is absolutely open-and-shut, of course, but such is life on the blood money shows. Lita's leaving with a giant cheque, 'The Man' might add another belter to her post-return CV, and we can all pretend it's still not awkward as f*ck watching them work in that gear.

Winner - Becky Lynch
