This past weekend, Perth, Australia hosted Elimination Chamber, the final PLE before WrestleMania. The responses were middling, but the event did succeed in setting up the WWE’s biggest show of the year. The team discusses their opinions on why every match was at least worth watching on Saturday.

Plus, a love tribute to Virgil, an underrated wrestling icon of a bygone era. 

The Main Event

Ever since his WWE debut, Dominik Mysterio was dismissed as little more than a nepo baby hire. And these days he arguably gets more heat than anyone else in the company BECAUSE he's a nepo baby hire! And a goth!
