Andy Will Be Angry If…: Elimination Chamber Edition

Elimination Chamber Match for the Intercontinental Championship

R-Truth vs. Sheamus vs. King Barrett vs. Ryback vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Rusev (?)

Originally, my biggest question with this match is “what in the hell is R-Truth doing in this match, but not Neville?” Hell, even a reborn Zack Ryder would make more sense here. Or, you know, the returning-on-the-kickoff-show former IC Champ, The Miz. Or, you know, anyone.

Now, however, my question is whether Rusev will be able to compete and, if not, who takes his place. Smart money is on Bray Wyatt who, despite being good enough for the spot, doesn’t really fit, since his character gives no shits about titles. If nothing else, he could further his feud with Ryback.

I’ll be angry if: R-Truth makes it to the final 5.

I’ll keep my cool if: WWE uses this match to smartly put over a handful of feuds, and make the Intercontinental championship feel really important.

I’m expecting…: Smart money is on Sheamus taking home the title. I’m hoping they go with Ryback…and I’m thinking Wyatt.
