Elimination Chamber (2023) | Results & Grades


The following are the RESULTS and my GRADES for WWE Elimination Chamber 2023.

Women's Elimination Chamber
(#1 Contendership for the RAW Women's Championship at WrestleMania)
ASUKA
def.
Liv Morgan
Carmella
Raquel Rodriguez
Nikki Cross
and
Natalya

COMMENTS
Really well done Chamber match with the ladies. Everyone looked good and I have no particular praise towards one specific person or part, everyone did their thing. Asuka winning was a no-brainer and she's heading to the BIG ONE.

Asuka will face Bianca Belair at WrestleMania for the Raw Women's Championship.

GRADE: A

Singles match
Bobby Lashley def. Brock Lesnar

COMMENTS
I thought they would have at least a decent bout this time around, but it was the same old thing. Shame the f*ck on me. Lesnar hit a low blow, Lashley won by DQ. Horribly booked. Worst match on the card by far. I mean, why? Like, why? Whatever.

GRADE: F

Mixed Tag Team Match
Edge & Beth Phoenix def.
Finn Balor & Rhea Ripley

COMMENTS
This match definitely picked up serious pace after that awful Lesnar/Lashley ordeal. Edge vs Judgment Day has been a long story so far and a great one at that. Edge's best feud since returning. No offense to all you Edge vs Rollins feud fans, although that was awesome as well. But this feud has been really good and has told a real good and fluid story. Bravo to everyone involved.

GRADE: A

Men's Elimination Chamber
(United States Championship)
Austin Theory (c)
def. Montez Ford,
Seth Freakin' Rollins,
Bronson Reed,
Damian Priest
and
Johnny Gargano

COMMENTS
Easily the match of the night for me. Everything and everyone delivered on every level imaginable. I'm not going to give any particular praise to one person or one specific part of the match - everyone did an awesome job and it was just fantasticly, done. Theory winning and retaining was definitely the right call in the end, continues his momentum.

GRADE: A+

Undisputed WWE Universal Championship
Roman Reigns (c) (w/ Paul Heyman)
def. Sami Zayn

COMMENTS
Despite this being a fantastic match in terms of quality and storytelling, the post-match was a bit overbooked in my opinion. That's the main reason I'm giving the grade I'm giving it. If it wasn't for the post-match, this would have been a higher grade.

All in all, great match with a superbly told story, especially in terms of Sami Zayn's hometown idea.

GRADE: A-


SHOW GRADE: A
