Cena vows to win the Chamber match and make history against Brock Lesnar in the main event of Mania. Then The Miz's music hits and he comes out with Dallas and Axel. The Miz mocks Cena for thinking he will main event Mania again when this is the year of The Miz.
Miz reminds Cena that he is the founding father of Suplex City after Lesnar destroyed him a couple of years ago. Cena says Miz has no chance against Brock unless he gets food poisoning or misses his flight. Miz says he could beat Lesnar because he can use his brain, not brawn. He says he can cross lines Cena refuses to, and that's why he beat Reigns for the IC title.
Cena proposes he and Miz wrestle tonight to see who has to enter the Chamber first. As Miz talks about why that would be a dumb idea, Axel and Dallas attack Cena. Then Miz says he accepts the challenge and calls for a ref, but Kurt Angle comes out instead. The GM says Cena's idea for a match is good and sends a ref to the ring. Then he boots Axel and Dallas from ringside.

Angle reveals Ronda Rousey will be signing her WWE contract at Elimination Chamber. Then he talks about how Jordan will have to miss WrestleMania due to his neck injury. The crowd cheers and Angle gets a little upset. He says anyone who takes joy out of seeing a Superstar get injured should be ashamed of themselves. He is not wrong. As he asks for people to wish Jordan a speedy recover, Seth Rollins' music hits and he heads to the ring.
Rollins says he feels for Jordan because he has been in the same position before. He knows WrestleMania moments are not guaranteed, and that's why he is out here. Angle suggests finding a new partner, but Rollins says he doesn't want another partner because he wants to be the top star again. He says he wants to face Lesnar and win the Universal Championship at WrestleMania, so he asks to be included in the match to find the last participant in the Chamber match.

Angle says it wouldn't be fair to the other four Superstars if Rollins was added to the match. Rollins pleads with him, but Angle says it's up to the fans. He asks the crowd if Seth should be included and everyone chants "Yes." Angle books Rollins into the match to make it a Fatal 5-Way.
