WWE SmackDown Feb.7, 2017 Preview
Who gets the momentum heading into Sunday's big Elimination Chamber match?
John Cena will defend his WWE championship against A.J. Styles, Dean Ambrose, Baron Corbin, The Miz and Bray Wyatt in an Elimination Chamber match. All participants are surely going to interact and a brawl is expected to occur.
Who gets to end SmackDown Live this week with a lot of momentum? Cena needs it since he's been rumored to losing the title while Styles is still unhappy for not getting a one-on-one rematch for the WWE championship.
What's next for Dean Ambrose and the Intercontinental championship?
At the moment, Dean Ambrose is involved in the Elimination Chamber match for the WWE championship. He is not expected to win the WWE title, which means he needs to have a new storyline heading into WrestleMania 33.
Styles is a viable opponent but he deserves to be in the WWE championship picture. The Miz, Baron Corbin, Apollo Crews and Dolph Ziggler could all get involved as the WWE books another Six-Man Ladder Match for the Intercontinental title at WrestleMania 33.
Can Naomi gain more momentum?
SmackDown Women's champion Alexa Bliss will defend her title against Naomi at Elimination Chamber. The new No. 1 contender has the champ's number after pinning her at the Royal Rumble and in last week's episode of SmackDown Live. Will Naomi gain more momentum or Alexa finally gets the upper hand?
More matches for Elimination Chamber PPV
There are only four matches on the Elimination Chamber card, per WWE.com. Three more matches are expected to be added to the main card. These matches are Becky Lynch vs. Mickie James, Randy Orton vs. Luke Harper and Dolph Ziggler vs. Apollo Crews.
