9 Burning Questions For WWE Elimination Chamber 2015

8. Will Absent Stars Make An Impact?

The conspiracy theorists out there will look at Rusev€™s injury as a work, that he€™s being written out so someone can step in at the 11th hour to take his spot €“ and very likely win the Intercontinental Championship. There are a number of big names not currently on the Elimination Chamber card, a card that currently features a mere six matches. Imagine Roman Reigns taking Rusev€™s spot in the chamber. He would have to become an instant favorite, as an IC title win would give him that elusive first single€™s reign and let him build himself up. Bray Wyatt is another wrestler not currently on the card who could be placed inside a chamber pod on Sunday. It would be a logical move considering that his Payback opponent Ryback is in the match. What about Randy Orton and Big Show? Neither has been seen on WWE TV since Payback, which doesn€™t necessarily mean they are due to return at Elimination Chamber, but if WWE was looking to have a surprise run-in, either one could provide it.
