That must have been the most predictable PPV of all time. Not a single surprise.
I know that both this and Fastlane are just set ups for Mania but a PPV deserves a couple of swerves you just weren't expecting but this had none.
Having said that, both the chamber matches were a lot of fun and were worth the watch.
Unfortunately everything else wasn't.

totally agree one of the most predictable of all time.
as for the last match that was the most predictable, reigns wins
(which we all knew anyway) with strowman looking strong.

i suppose now we have to accept that reigns will be leaving mania as champ and that is that, I just hope it ain't the last match at mania because as I said before it will be another mania ending with reigns getting booed out the arena.

I thought the men’s match was decent, its just a shame everyone knew how it was going to end for the last two years. The really made all 7 guys feel like a big deal, and suddenly I can see Miz, Balor, Rollins, and Elias being top Raw guys.

I put this down to the idea that they were actually in a match where the winner took a great prize, instead of people being locked in to one feud, there are 7 guys feuding over the title. It’ll be a shame if they now just let Brock and Reigns talk about the Universal Championship until Mania. These 7 were all in for it a few days ago, I’d keep them all chasing it right up until Summerslam at least.

Create the idea we don’t know who the next UC will be, assuming RR will be carrying the belt, instead of being able to predict who will beat him and when, you could have it in constant jeopardy.

My only complaint was that there wasn’t a killer move to beat Braun, they built him up, he took 5 guys finishes back to back mid match and kicked out, then two spears beat him. I’d have liked to have seen something bigger or more special pin the big boy.

I was surprised by Alexa winning, I was sure they’d manoeuvre Banks to fight Auska in the showpiece match.

As for HHH and Steph vs Ronda and Angle I really can’t believe they’d put that on at Mania, maybe I am wrong, but I don’t hold any of these 4 in the regard that WWE seem to. HHH is the man, and if given a proper story I’d accept him squeezing on to the Mania card, I have no desire to see Angle wrestle again after his stint with the Shield, Ronda is a big star, she will surly just beat up Steph, another I have no interest in seeing in ring.

The fact WWE won’t let there be any physicality between the genders means its basically two matches.

The saving grace could be Ronda making HHH tap, if they’d allow it.

The Chamber PPV created a very strong argument for the proposal that PPVs not being 'brand' exclusive and RAW and Smackdown wrestlers appearing on all PPVs Outside of the Chamber match itself, the matches offered were incredibly weak.
A worn out Matt Hardy in a watered down incarnation of his broken self against the stuck record that is Bray Wyatt in a feud which hasn't even come close to catching the imagination.
But my main bugbear yet again are the tag teams. Sheamus and Cesaaro are top professionals and do their best to hold up what must be the weakest tag division in history. Titus Worldwide is the best opposition they can find?
I know the Revival are on RAW as are Gallows and Anderson but neither of these teams is being given the spotlight. The tag teams is the one area Smackdown beats RAW hands down.
The Usos, New Day, Gable and Benjamin, The Bludgeon Brothers, even Breezango are better than most on RAW.
If Sheamus and Cesaro are going to be kept together, they deserve better opposition and Smackdown could provide it.

The Raw tag division isn't up to much, there is a decent argument to making a united tag team title, and having tag teams be able to have matches on PPV cross brand, to try and bring the titles back to their show.

Cesaro and Sheamus could easily be the next best 2 guys that didn't get in the Chamber match. You've got 9 big stars there.
