WWE Championship Elimination Match
Drew McIntyre defends his WWE Championship in the Main Event. Randy Orton and Jeff Hardy will start, with a competitor added every five minutes.
Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax retain their tag titles
Nia Jax pinned Sasha Banks with a Samoan Drop after a bizarre distraction thanks to Reginald, Carmella's sommelier.
The fight began slowly, with Nia Jax fighting both Banks and Bianca Belair. Things got better once Baszler was tagged, and we finally got some solid action thanks to the excellentcounter-struggle of Baszler and Banks. The finale came when Jax and Banks were the legal women. Reginald came to the ring with a fancy champagne and a drink, and rolled the champagne in the ring as he told Banks to smash it on Jax. Sasha refused and was punched by Jax, Samoan fell and then pinned.
The distraction was artificial, Banks looked silly and Jax's execution was botched.
Rating: 2 stars. It seems highly likely that the Banks will face Be hideout at WrestleMania, so this match suffered from the knowledge Jax and Baszler were sure to retain. He was further hampered by a poor finish and Jax, which is usually not particularly pleasing to the eye. Shayna Baszler absolutely reigns, however, and was the highlight of the game.
Riddle wins United States Championship
John Morrison replaced Kieth Lee in this match against the triple threat of the United Statesis, which also featured Riddle and champion Bobby Lashley. Riddle won the fun fight by pinning Morrison.
It all started with Lashley being a monster, easily destroying Riddle and Morrison. Riddle and Morrison then decide to team up to defeat the beast. At first it doesn't even work, but eventually they get the upper hand on Lashley and neutralize him on the outside with a tandem attack.
BROOOOOOOOOOOOO ...

- WWE Universe (@WWEUniverse) February 22, 2021 Inside the ring, we have a nice fight between Riddle and Morrison. Morrison is tragically underutilized. Eventually, of course, Lashley returns to the ring. Riddle cradles him with a V-Trigger ripchord, but Lashley ends up cleaning the house. Morrison takes MVP's crutches and tries to swing at Lashley, but Lashley avoids him and puts Morrison in the Hurt Lock. Riddle takes the crutch and crushes Lashley in the back - the advertisers doWe hastily tell you there is no disqualification - causing Lashley to retreat and regroup outside.
Riddle then planted Morrison with his BroDerrick gravestone blow for the win. He immediately fled Lashley, a true fighting champion.
Rating: 3.5 stars . A fun match with three talented guys. It 's silly to see Riddle, a pretended babyface and real life badass, made to look so weak compared to Lashley. But it was nice to see Morrison's talents on display.
Roman Reigns beats Daniel Bryan
This Universal Championship game was short but enjoyable. Bry one, stumbling and barely able to walk, tells the referee to ring the bell. Roman immediately goes looking for a spear, but is countered when Bryan locks the Yes Lock. Announcer Michael Cole loses his mind, shouting that Bryan is going to perform a miracle. Fantastic moment.
