WWE Elimination Chamber 2022: 10 Things That Must Happen

Yes, sir!

Bobby Lashley's latest WWE Title reign is a record-inflating temp. WWE gave him his sought-after match vs. Brock Lesnar, handed Bob the win and now he'll be expected to return the favour in Saudi Arabia so they can book that 'Champion vs. Champion' match for Lesnar against Roman.

It doesn't seem likely that Brock is gonna withstand a second pay-per-view defeat before WrestleMania 38; that Lashley loss was a one-off, and it only happened so the company had an excuse to book another WWE Title change in Saudi. That sort of international incident holds weight with those funding these stadiums shows, after all.

Austin Theory is there to get some headline rub, AJ Styles is in the veteran slot, Seth Rollins has been kicking around main events for a while and Riddle is getting a buzz on in between teaming with Randy Orton. Nobody other than Lesnar leaving with the gold sounds right, including Bobby.
