What's this? A non-Chamber match headlining the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view? Well, yes, but only because WWE's over-reliance on booking to a calendar means neither titular bout is particularly engaging as a main event. AJ Styles vs. Aleister Black is as good as anything else on this card.

If they're given 20-25 minutes, AJ and Aleister will tear Philly a new one. They're that good, and this could be the breakout showing Black needs to assure Vince McMahon he doesn't deserve to go south like Ricochet has lately. This guy is one of the best workers on the planet today, and this will hopefully be proof of that.

It better not be a glorified squash for Styles.

There's a bigger story at play in this one. Black is far more useful as a power player than an enhancement talent, and his hard work merits some WrestleMania inclusion. The only way to do that is by making him look competitive here. That's true win or lose.
