Surprisingly, Shinsuke Nakamura wasn’t even considered for the match.

The Elimination Chamber matches are usually pretty exhausting with the winners barely surviving by the skin of their teeth. The fact that they will then have to face a fully rested Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship almost guarantees a win for the head of the table.
