But to be equally fair, Nia is the only one saying,"I'm the one person on the roster you can't beat, Asuka!" when she has, in fact, already been beaten by Asuka.

I thought she said "I'm the only one who can beat you" not "I'm the only one you can't beat"? And this is pedantry at the highest order I realize

Elias won? HAHAHAHAHAHA! And here i was questioning the booking of Alex Bliss pointing out the double standard of the Elimination Chamber match, Absolution filling out the Chamber as fodder in a shallow division, Apollo being an easy qualifying opponent for Miz, and a loser's bracket. My priorities were all messed up.

What is the problem with a heel stealing a win in a triple threat

Oh, c'mon man. You know what I find funny. Feel free to disagree and convince me I'm wrong and just don't get who is over and who isn't because I don't watch enough. That's plausible. But we both know why I find this result funny.

I honestly don't get what your issue is here, to be honest? Elias winning made a lot of sense, since that's the type of character he is - a guy who takes shortcuts/profits of other people's hard work.

I actually genuinely don't. They've been pushing Elias really hard and a heel entering last makes sense. That finish protects the losers, too.

I just don't buy into Elias at all and he sticks out like a sore thumb to me in both the Chamber and this threeway.

I meant it when I said maybe I just don't know who is over because I'm too casual a viewer. I just don't personally buy in. And that's with me being long since bored of Cena and not caring for Braun at all.

THREE TIME! THREE TIME!
Elias is definitely over. He just feels like a midcard character to the core right now. It's funny the way they're pushing him so well and consistently while they mishandle the poo poo out of real potential main event guys like Balor and Rollins.

They want Elias/Cena to badly matter as much as the feud it replaced (Cena/Joe)

Oh I see what you mean now. Yeah if you don't buy Elias as a top heel I can see why this would be confusing/funny to you.

In my opinion, Elias is really loving good though!

Yeah, obviously if you're into Elias more power to you. And if more people are into Elias than I realize and he REALLY is main event over than the jokes is on me. I just don't buy in right now and nothing I've seen the last couple of weeks has changed that.

I genuinely didn't even realize they were feuding.

More practically, does anyone want to see Elias wrestling in the chamber for anything more than the minimum amount of time? Especially if the alternative is him in the pod, hopefully singing about chain link fence.
