WWE Elimination Chamber: Bayley, Alexa Bliss and the possible candidates for women's Chamber match

A chance to battle for the Raw Women’s Championship is on the line at Elimination Chamber on Saturday week, in the night’s second Elimination Chamber bout. 

So far Rhea Ripley, Nikki A.S.H., Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan and Doudrop have been announced for the match, with one ‘mystery’ place remaining. GiveMeSport speculates which Superstar could fill that spot in Jeddah on February 19. 

Asuka

We’ve not seen Asuka since last June’s Money in the Bank show and details on her current hiatus have been scarce, other than an Instagram post last year that showed the former women’s champion’s arm in a brace. There were some reports around the Royal Rumble stating that The Empress of Tomorrow was medically cleared to make her return, and although she didn’t appear in the Rumble match it would suggest her comeback is imminent. Placing her in the Elimination Chamber would up the star power and give WWE more options on the road to WrestleMania. 

Bayley 

Although part of the SmackDown brand upon her ACL injury last July, Bayley wasn’t assigned to a roster in the 2021 draft, giving her a free pass to join the Chamber match if he has fully recovered from the lay-off. Unlike Asuka, WWE and Bayley have been a lot more transparent about her time on the shelf and although the Royal Rumble came too early for her return, reports suggest she could be back as early as this month. SmackDown’s longest reigning champ has already got WWE tongues wagging by replying to WWE’s Elimination Chamber tweet with a leg emoji, suggesting she’s ready to go.
