Clear match of the night - great job by all the women I thought!
Lots to like all around. They've done a nice job in the last couple of weeks reestablishing Bayley as a decent contender and the crowd reacted well to her strong run. I think it was fair to question Mandy and Sonya in this match before hand but they did a solid job and rose to the occasion. Mickie's big Thesz Press was a cool spot, and Sasha and Bayley's slow burn continued well.
Like I said in the party thread the only glaring issue I had was with Sasha's no sell of the Twisted Bliss off the pod. That was an awesome spot and should have really been the end of the match.
Great post-match promo by Alexa too, really had the crowd going.

I agree 100%. Maybe they should have Main Evented after all. :lol:
Alexa had me going at the end. I thought she was turning. She’s really got it all.

Yeah the women's Elimination Chamber match, was enjoyable... I would have liked Mandy lasting a little longer but whatever. I gotta agree HR, Sasha no selling the Twisted Bliss from the top of the pod, to the steel floor was ridiculous. Alexa Bliss proving why she is the best woman on the main roster, and that post match promo was entertaining as well, I'm glad Alexa retained ger title.

The only thing I really would have loved to see was Mickie and Alexa interacting just a little before Mickie was eliminated, especially since that was the crux of the show-ending segment last Monday. But Mickie was on fire and I loved how she showed up like she was trying to prove something. I just really wish she was given more time. And I hope she gets at least one more transitional title reign in the future. The crowd definitely chanted for her when Bayley eliminated her. Once Mickie was eliminated, I was Team Alexa to the end. It's nice to see her take cues from Andrade Cien Almas and use a top-rope version of her DDT to end a big match.

That was a fantastic match and one of the best Chamber matches I've seen. The high spots were used sparingly and were all very effective. Good pacing and storytelling throughout. The only flaw, as pointed out, was the no selling of super Twisted Bliss which made no sense to me.

Sasha is an idiot. When she and Bayley were chasing Alexa it was better teamwork than Absolution by far, but then to attack Bayley for... what? Attack her after you eliminate Alexa.

We known from the Rumble that Sasha isn't a very strategic person. When it was her, Asuka and the Bella twins, she turned on Asuka immediately for the oh-shit-edgy-heel pop, then got promptly eliminated by the Bella twins. This case may have been overconfidence setting in. She thought she could beat both Bayley and Bliss by herself, ended up beating neither.

I missed a lot of the match because the WWE network over my friends house was acting odd during the first match but I found the last three on both chambers odd booking. You had heel facing two on one odds in the end and won. And in the other one you had a face taking on two on one odd and lose.

I was hoping for a few more cage spots but I'm happy with the match we got. The women did well and put on a great show. I'm hoping we start getting these every year.

Not a moment that was going to grab too many people's attention, but I love this from Bayley. Sonya would have landed right on the back of her head had she not had the awareness to pull her towards the ring so she'd land more safely on her back.

I love the newly found aggression showed by Bayley. When Sasha double-crossed her, she didn't feel sorry for herself. Bayley stood up for herself.

Sonya would have landed right on the back of her head had she not had the awareness to pull her towards the ring so she'd land more safely on her back. I noticed this too during the match - very great awareness by Bayley. I thought the match was quite good and I liked seeing Bliss win with the top rope variation of the DDT. The Twisted Bliss moment was really a bummer though...a great spot that was immediately devalued by the no-sell reversal.
