Hm... No Roman Reigns or Randy Orton huh? That's curious.

Not yet. I'd guess one of them is facing Kane, or that they're facing each other. Neither guy was on Raw last night. Maybe they want to announce it at a time where it will get more focus. They did make a decently big deal about Roman Reigns' "return" to Smackdown on Thursday, so I assume they'll announce something then.

Awe. Way to spoil RAW for me BRM, I haven't watched it yet. :P

I feel like after both of them being in a title match, those matches are kind of blegh without the right story leading up to it.

Well Orton vs. Kane could be stemming from Kane costing Orton the match at the PPV. And really any match you do with so little build coming out of a title match won't come off big. But that's not a bad thing either. If they go with
Hidden text.
Bo vs. Neville, it is better than Neville being in the chamber and having to lose because he gets to win
.
Also, it is good to cycle people down the card every once in a while. There's nothing wrong with giving these guys a dominating undercard win.

I don't disagree with you, I just don't how how much I, as a fan, wanna see it on PPV. Unless it's like, for example, Randy Orton vs. Dolph Ziggler. Technically Ziggler is lower on the card but the two guys could still have a fantastic match that ended in a dominating fashion, like a sick RKO on Ziggler as he's coming down off the top rope or something.

I think their thought process is that "everyone wants to see Elimination Chamber matches, so everyone will watch the show regardless of whatever else is on it."

That seems like a fair statement haha. And to be fair, those are always fun to watch, for me as a fan. But I still wanna see Roman in a title match dammit. :P

Jeez, lady! He's been in the title match two of the past three PPVs! Do you know when the last time I got to see Kane in a title match was? But you don't hear me complaining, do you?



(Well... you do, but more about the poor storytelling based on what they have set up rather than the face it is Kane in particular not getting a title match.)

That's not a fair comparison haha. Roman is on his way in, Kane is on his way out (hopefully not for a while but still...)
