As seen on this week’s episode of WWE Monday Night RAW in Des Moines, IA at the Wells Fargo Arena on the USA Network, Elias beat John Cena and Braun Strowman in a Triple Threat Match.

As a result of this win, Elias has earned the right to enter last in the Men’s Elimination Chamber Match at the pay-per-view event that takes place on Sunday, February 25th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada and will air on the WWE Network.

Dave Meltzer shed some light on why the sports entertainment company decided to do this on the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio. According to the longtime journalist, WWE had Elias pin Cena to help him get over and to follow up on the feud between the two superstars that has transpired over the last few weeks on television. The belief is that they will wrestle each other again later down the road.

Regarding the post-match angle where Strowman beat down both talents, the idea behind it was to help build him over as one of the top superstar heading into WrestleMania season.
