-- Four teams have now been announced for the Women's Tag Team Championship Elimination Chamber match that's taking place at this month's pay-per-view.

WWE revealed via Twitter on Saturday night that The IIconics (Peyton Royce & Billie Kay) will be one of the six teams in the Elimination Chamber match to decide WWE's Women's Tag Team Champions. They join Nia Jax & Tamina, Liv Morgan & Sarah Logan, and Mandy Rose & Sonya Deville as teams that have been announced for the match.

There will be three teams from Raw and three teams from SmackDown in the Elimination Chamber match. Raw's final team for it will be confirmed when Sasha Banks & Bayley face Alicia Fox & Nikki Cross in a qualifier this Monday night.

Jax & Tamina defeated Alexa Bliss & Mickie James and Morgan & Logan defeated Natalya & Dana Brooke in their qualifying matches. WWE has announced SmackDown's Rose & Deville and Royce & Kay for the Tag Team title match instead of having them win qualifiers.

The Toyota Center in Houston, Texas will host Elimination Chamber 2019 on February 17.

-- It looks like Becky Lynch will be appearing on Raw for the second straight week.

WWE announced today that Lynch "has been invited to [Monday's] Raw by Stephanie McMahon." Lynch's appearance on this week's episode wasn't advertised in advance, with her showing up and confronting Raw Women's Champion Ronda Rousey after winning the women's Royal Rumble.

While confronting Rousey, Lynch announced that she'll be challenging for Rousey's title at WrestleMania 35.

There was then an angle on SmackDown where Lynch brawled with Charlotte Flair. WWE played up the storyline knee injury that Lynch suffered at the Royal Rumble. It was said that Lynch refused medical attention, and Lynch did an interview saying she doesn't need to spend more time on the shelf.

Jeff Jarrett vs. Elias, Sasha Banks & Bayley vs. Alicia Fox & Nikki Cross for Raw's last spot in the Women's Tag Team Championship Elimination Chamber match, Intercontinental Champion Bobby Lashley vs. Finn Balor in a non-title match, and a segment where Kurt Angle will address his future in WWE have also been announced for Monday's Raw. The episode is taking place at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon.

Are they stupid? They kill their hook for SD by having Becky show up on Raw to challenge Ronda, then wonder why SD did a bad rating... and then they have Becky show up on Raw again the next week?


Also, can we at least get some sort of explanation for why Raw teams have to qualify for the Elimination Chamber but SD teams don't? I mean... if they're coming up with a reason for Becky to be allowed on SD (Steph is "inviting" her) how can they not see that this other thing makes no sense?!

Beat me to it. And I swear, if the belts go to anyone but Sasha and Bayley and we don’t get a breakup angle out of it, I give up on these belts before they event start.

Problem is... at this point it’s like the UK Tag Team Championships... everyone expected Moustache Mountain and they didn’t get the win.. probably just because. It will be the same here, everyone expects Sasha and Bayley... but they’ll probably end up with Riott Squad or IIconics.

I wouldn’t mind them with The Riott Squad though.

I wouldn't hate them on the Riott Squad, either, but the problem is that idea of Sasha & Bayley's broken friendship being repaired has to lead to them winning these belts or else it's just a giant return to the status quo ante, and if if the plan was just to put them back together then they just pissed away what was a super-hot angle for no f*cking gain.

Not putting the belts on Moustache Mountain when everyone expects you to is fine because you haven't built up any real cache in anything so you don't lose anything by having someone else win the belts first (plus it sets Moustache Mountain on a real journey, and considering the other title match finishes on the show, this at least gives you one division with heel champs).
