Rey Mysterio defeated The Miz. (Kickoff match)
The Miz will have to continue his search for the respect he thinks he deserves as Rey Mysterio put on a display in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and showed exactly why he is the WWE 2K22 cover star and a legend in this industry.
The A-Lister jumped Mysterio early, rolling out of the ring to avoid a 619, but he could not escape Dominik Mysterio at ringside, who tossed Miz back into the ring and into the waiting arms of his father.
The Miz dug into his bag of underhanded tricks to try to put away the future Hall of Famer, sling-shotting Mysterio’s head into the bottom ropes before bouncing it off the barricades. After Miz took a swing at Dominik behind the ref’s back, Dominik ducked it and clocked Miz to set up a near-fall.
The Ultimate Underdog escaped a Skull-Crushing Finale to set Miz up for a 619, but as he went for a splash, Miz rolled out of the ring and grabbed a chair before turning around into a splash from Mysterio. As Dominik went to grab the chair from Miz, The A-Lister feigned a fall into the steel steps to have the young Mysterio ejected from ringside. Miz tried to capitalize on Mysterio’s argument with the ref with another Skull-Crushing Finale, but it backfired as Mysterio rolled him up for the pin.
Enraged, The Miz attacked Rey after the bell, but Dominik raced into the ring to aid his father as the duo combined for a double 619 and back-to-back frog splashes to send the crowd into a frenzy as Miz was flattened. (Via WWE.com)

WWE Universal Championship: WWE UNIVERSAL CHAMPION, Roman Reigns defeated WWE Hall of Famer, Goldberg by technical submission.
The match two years in the making did not disappoint as Roman Reigns Goldberg’d Goldberg to remain the longest-reigning Universal Champion of all time.
The two heavyweights exchanged right hands, and Goldberg flung Reigns into the ringside barricade before rolling the champion into the ring for the night’s first Spear. The Hall of Famer looked to finish the job with a Jackhammer, but The Head of the Table was quick to reverse the attempt into a uranage before planting a Superman Punch.
Reigns set up for a Spear of his own but was caught by another Spear from Goldberg, who once again set up Reigns for the Jackhammer. Reigns quickly reversed it and locked in the Guillotine to sap the remaining strength out of Goldberg and leave him lying unconscious in the center of the ring. (Via WWE.com)

Bianca Belair defeated Alexa Bliss, Rhea Ripley, Liv Morgan, Doudrop and Nikki A.S.H. (RAW Women's Championship #1 contenders elimination chamber match)
Bianca Belair reaped the rewards of winning Monday Night Raw’s Gauntlet Match, entering the fray last to pick apart what was left of the exhausted field and win the Elimination Chamber Match in her first-ever appearance.
Entering the match as one of the first two competitors, Nikki A.S.H. showed her new aggressive mentality in the unforgiving structure, brutalizing Liv Morgan with the steel cage. She looked to form an alliance with Doudrop, who entered the match at No. 3, but the Scottish Superstar had no intention of making friends. Instead, she launched Nikki A.S.H. into the steel barrier before decimating Morgan.
Doudrop ran roughshod over everyone until Nikki A.S.H. slid out of the way to send her running into the ring post. Her celebration was quickly turned into a nightmare as Rhea Ripley entered the match and went straight for her former tag team partner, who attempted to retreat up the steel cage. Ripley gave chase, tossing Nikki A.S.H. off the side of the cage and onto the other two competitors before delivering a Riptide to Nikki A.S.H. for the first elimination of the match.
With the ring filling up following the entrance of Alexa Bliss, Morgan turned the tide on an attacking Doudrop, planting a sunset flip powerbomb off the top rope to stack up Doudrop for the second elimination.
Enter The EST of WWE.
Belair came flying into the match to take out Morgan, joining Ripley for a pair of in-stereo backbody drops on Morgan and Bliss, but that was where their friendship ended, as an upset Ripley slapped Belair. Before the two could throw hands, though, Morgan jumped in to deliver a pair of knees to both Superstars. Morgan went to capitalize but left her back to Bliss, who took down Morgan and delivered a Twisted Bliss for the elimination.
Down to the final three, Ripley set up for a Riptide on Bliss but had it reversed into an assisted DDT as Belair clotheslined Bliss. With Ripley stunned, Belair picked up The Nightmare for a massive K.O.D. and an elimination.
Bliss nearly reached the promised land in her first match after being cured in therapy, but each knockout attempt was reversed by The EST of WWE, who ricocheted Bliss into the steel cage and summersaulted out of a DDT attempt. As Bliss screamed at Belair to give up, Belair snatched Bliss and planted her with a K.O.D. to earn her spot at WrestleMania. (Via WWE.com)

Ronda Rousey & Naomi defeated Sonya Deville & SmackDown Women's Champion, Charlotte Flair.
The mind games began early as Sonya Deville removed her arm sling to reveal that she was back to full strength following Ronda Rousey’s attack on SmackDown, leaving Naomi and The Baddest Woman on the Planet at a 4-3 arms disadvantage. This, of course, did little to rattle Rousey, who, despite having her right arm tied behind her back, blasted the WWE Official with a kick to the face before calling for Charlotte Flair, who quickly tagged back out.
With Deville back in the ring, Naomi wanted the chance at payback on the woman who has been plaguing her for weeks. Naomi drove Deville into the turnbuckle before tagging Rousey back into the match. As The Baddest Woman on the Planet went to lock in the Armbar, Flair pounced and sent the former Raw Women’s Champion flying into the ring post, repeatedly stomping Rousey in the corner.
Deville and Flair teed off on Rousey, isolating her in their corner and gloating to the crowd inside the Jeddah Super Dome. Rousey finally escaped to tag in Naomi, who flew in to take out everyone with a flurry of kicks and a corkscrew dive to the outside on the SmackDown Women’s Champion.
The match broke down when Flair tried to lock in the Figure-Four as Rousey and Deville entered the fray.
With Rousey and Deville now legal, Rousey stared down Flair as she set up Deville for an Armbar, daring the Champion to enter the ring. Instead, The Queen waved her off, letting The Baddest Woman on the Planet lock in the submission that forced Deville to tap out. (Via WWE.com)

Drew McIntyre defeated Madcap Moss (with Happy Corbin).
February 19, 2022. The day that laughter died courtesy of a brutal beating by Drew McIntyre. The Scottish Warrior fended off Madcap Moss and Happy Corbin during his Falls Count Anywhere Match with Moss in the first step in his retribution for the duo’s Day 1 assault.
Madcap Moss and Happy Corbin took advantage of the No Disqualification rule to gang up on McIntyre right as the bell sounded, turning the match into more of a 2-on-1 Handicap Match as the Superstars battled on the entrance ramp.
With action back inside the ring, McIntyre popped up to deliver a brutal Alabama Slam to Madcap Moss before chasing Happy Corbin away and tossing Corbin’s protégé over the announce table. McIntyre looked to bulldoze Moss through the barricade, but Corbin once again intervened with a sickening chair strike. Corbin and Moss then teamed up to send McIntyre through the barricade and into the timekeeper’s area for a near-fall.
Madcap Moss looked to pile on the damage, climbing to the top rope, but he got caught by McIntyre, who delivered some punishment with a Superplex and a Future Shock DDT. As McIntyre turned his back to head to the corner, Corbin slid in to save his partner in crime, but he was nearly met with disaster when McIntyre took a swing with Angela. With sword raised high, McIntyre delivered a thunderous Claymore to Madcap Moss, standing tall and pointing Angela at Corbin as the referee counted 1-2-3. (Via WWE.com)

RAW Women's Championship: RAW WOMEN'S CHAMPION, Becky Lynch defeated WWE Hall of Famer, Lita.
Any previous reservations Becky Lynch had about putting down her childhood idol were thrown out the window as Big Time Becks shook off her conflictions and survived an incredible match against Lita to retain her Raw Women’s Championship.
Lynch’s frustrations were apparent from the get-go as she planted a huge slap across Lita’s face. The former champion returned the blow moments later before setting up for a Twist of fate. Big Time Becks quickly reversed the move, however, and punished Lita in between the ropes and in the corner with a burst of stomps and leg drops.
The champion pummeled Lita and set up for a second Bexploder, but the extreme Superstar countered with a DDT, stunning Lynch with a flurry of offense capped off by a splash from the top rope. Lynch attempted to rally but got caught with a powerbomb from Lita for a near-fall. Lynch rolled out of the ring to avoid a moonsault and dropped Lita throat-first across the ropes with a neckbreaker.
Stunned but not out, Lita pulled out everything she had in her arsenal with a hurricanrana from the corner and a facebuster for a two-count, but she was once again denied as Lynch pulled her off the top rope before she could attempt a moonsault. The future Hall of Famer escaped Lynch’s pin attempt following a Manhandle Slam, grabbing the ropes before delivering a Twist of Fate and a picture-perfect moonsault for a shocking near-fall on the champion.

Brock Lesnar conquered the competition in his first Elimination Chamber Match to win the WWE Championship and punch his ticket to The Show of Shows for a Title vs. Title Match against Universal Champion Roman Reigns.
The Beast’s presence loomed large despite starting the match inside one of the four pods as Seth "Freakin" Rollins and Austin Theory gloated inside the ring before trading blows. Mr. McMahon’s protégé was first to feel the effects of the unforgiving structure as Rollins powerbombed Theory through the pod of Bobby Lashleyto take out the upstart and The All Mighty before Riddlejoined the fray seconds later.
As medics attended to Lashley, Rollins suplexed The Original Bro off the top of The WWE Champion’s pod for a near-fall. With AJ Styles entering the match as the fourth entrant, the remaining Superstars battered one another, setting up a Tower of Doom before Theory found himself on the receiving end of a Floating Bro for a two-count.
With Lashley being taken out of the chamber and ruled ineligible by medics due to concussion protocols, Lesnar got tired of waiting and burst through the plexiglass of his pod to enter the match, immediately dispatching both Rollins and Riddle with a pair of quick F-5s.
After picking up his third elimination with another F-5 to Styles, Lesnar closed the chamber door to trap a retreating Theory inside. The Beast chased Theory around the chamber, but the newcomer stopped the charging Beast with a low-blow uppercut and a DDT for a two-count.
Realizing the predicament he was in, Theory attempted to climb to the top of the cage and escape through the chains, but he was pulled back inside by Lesnar, who bounced his head off the plexiglass before F-5ing Theory off the top of a pod and mercifully covering him for a pin. (Via WWE.com)
