The match was seen with near pinfalls from both teams. When The Judgment Day attempted to finish the match, Bate countered, unleashing a relentless offensive alongside Dunne. Though unable to secure the pin, they continued to assault Priest. However, a timely intervention from Bálor allowed Priest to recover and execute a double chokeslam, paving the way for Bálor’s Coup de Grace on Dunne, clinching the pin and handing The Judgment Day their first victory of the night in what stands as one of the most thrilling tag team matches of the year thus far.
Women’s Elimination Chamber Match 2024
“The Man” Becky Lynch is bound for WrestleMania once again.
In a display of their seasoned prowess, Lynch and Naomi kicked off the match with rapid-fire sequences, setting a blistering pace. Naomi’s split leg drop off the chains added an extra spark to the action.
The crowd rallied behind Stratton, amplifying the atmosphere as she became the first competitor released from the pods, showcasing the burgeoning power that has propelled her as a rising star in NXT. Morgan entered next, targeting Stratton relentlessly by hurling her into the unforgiving glass. However, it was Stratton who secured the first elimination, surprising everyone by pinning Naomi just before Rodriguez joined the fray.
Belair made her entrance as the final competitor, immediately asserting dominance and engaging in a power struggle with Rodriguez. The match escalated with high-flying maneuvers, notably Stratton’s swanton bomb from the top of the pods onto Rodriguez, Belair, and Lynch. But her momentum was short-lived; as she attempted to eliminate Morgan, she fell victim to a counter and was pinned.
Shortly after, Belair eliminated Rodriguez with her signature K.O.D. move. The remaining three competitors engaged in a back-and-forth battle, thwarting each other’s finishers with a flurry of counters. Lynch capitalized on a distracted Morgan, delivering the Manhandle Slam for the pinfall victory, securing her spot in a championship match at WrestleMania 40.
The match was filled with standout moments, including Stratton’s demonstration of her future main event potential, reaffirming the women’s ability to deliver an electrifying start to a premium live event.

Women’s Tag Team Championship match: Asuka and Kairi Sane (c) vs. Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell
It was a brilliant decision to feature Indi Hartwell competing in front of her home country, adding an extra layer of excitement to the event right from the start. Hartwell’s early offensive flurry ignited the crowd, setting a lively tone before the official commencement of the match. The chants in support of Hartwell added to the electric atmosphere, enhancing the overall experience for the audience.
As the match progressed, the champions gradually asserted their dominance, showcasing their seamless chemistry with a flurry of swift yet impactful maneuvers targeted at Candice LeRae. Despite the challengers’ valiant efforts, the champions’ cohesion proved formidable.
However, the momentum shifted when LeRae tagged in Hartwell, prompting an eruption of cheers from the crowd eager to witness their hometown hero in action. Hartwell’s display of power against Sane and Asuka further energized the audience, highlighting her prowess on the grand stage.
Although the challengers mounted several near-pin attempts, their momentum was thwarted by a timely intervention from Sane, leaving LeRae to fend for herself. Asuka then orchestrated the finishing sequence, positioning Sane for her signature Insane Elbow, a move revered as one of the best in the women’s division, securing the pinfall victory to retain the titles.
While the outcome may have been expected, the match served as a solid opening to the event, captivating the audience from start to finish. Despite their defeat, the standing ovation for Hartwell reflected the warmth and appreciation of the crowd, encapsulating a heartwarming moment amidst the competitive fervor.

How does the Elimination Chamber match work?
Introduced in 2002, the Elimination Chamber match is a signature WWE bout that features six competitors enclosed within a steel structure surrounding the ring and the adjacent area.
At the beginning of the match, two competitors start inside the ring, while the remaining four participants are confined within pods located just outside the ring. Every five minutes, a new competitor is randomly released from their pod, joining the ongoing match.
As an elimination match, competitors are eliminated through pinfall or submission, with no disqualifications. The last remaining participant after all others have been eliminated is declared the winner.
The upcoming event will mark the 33rd and 34th editions of the Elimination Chamber match. Throughout its history, the match has typically served as a championship bout or a means to determine a challenger for a championship match at WrestleMania.
