Aleister Black vs. Randy Orton vs. Solo Sikoa

[8.0] "[8.0]"J'ai passé un super moment, super match ; toujours avec Randy. En réalité la construction est assez simple mals elle est efficace. L'avantage des match qualif c'est qu'on a du neuf. Je mettrai 7, 5""

[4.0] "One of the most normal and ordinary matches I've seen in a while. Randy Orton didn't need to win. Who really cares about seeing Randy and Roman as a champ? This opportunity should have gone to Solo or Black. The only way to save this for Randy and Cody to start a feud in chamber and we'll see a Jacob Cody Randy three-way match."

[6.0] "I had a similar emotions from both qualifying matches. Good triple threat, but not great. The most intresting moment was in the final and RKO to Solo, when Randy not watching behind was amazing."

[6.0] "Going into this triple threat, expectations were understandably high given the names involved. Aleister Black, Randy Orton, and Solo Sikoa are three very different performers, each bringing a distinct identity and style, which on paper promised a hard-hitting and psychologically rich encounter. Unfortunately, while the match was far from bad, it never fully lived up to what it could have been. The pacing was one of the main issues. Instead of leaning into the chaotic nature that a triple threat allows, the match often felt restrained and a bit too formulaic. Randy Orton delivered his usual veteran presence and solid ring psychology, but without any standout moments that truly elevated the match. Aleister Black had flashes of intensity and striking offense, yet he never really found the rhythm needed to take control and impose his aura on the contest. Solo Sikoa, for his part, was protected and presented as a threat, but his involvement sometimes felt more functional than impactful. In the end, this was a decent match that suffered mostly from inflated expectations. There were good sequences and a few enjoyable interactions, but nothing that made the bout feel special or memorable. It's the kind of match you watch, appreciate in the moment, and then quickly move on from--solid, but clearly below the level these three are capable of delivering when everything clicks."

[8.0] "Good way to see the night out, and Randy Orton is still a lot of fun even as he nears the end of his career"

[6.0] "Very predictable but it was still pretty decent. I do wish they did more with Aleister because he's so good but at least he didn't get pinned. I'm also happy there weren't shenanigans in this match either. It seems to be a very common thing with Solo these days."

[6.0] "Good match and cool ending with the omnipotent RKO but I'm not sure if Randy was the right guy to win this, personally I think Aleister shoukd of won. Him and Carmelo would of made for a much more entertaining match although they kinda already had a mini feud a while back. Never less though, a fine match and it's cool to see Randy do the pose at the end."

[6.0] "Good match here, nothing too insane (as i've said for the 5th time already damn it). Randy winning was expected, and there was some enjoyable spots from this as well."

[7.0] "Enjoyable matchup. Thought it was a bit of a slower pace but definitely cleaner than the women's triple threat. All three men looked good throughout although the outcome seemed obvious to me."

[7.0] "Now that was a good match. Loved it, great striking and offence, nice move sequence kept throughout. Solo in particular did a great job, I'm always impressed with how good Solo can be in-ring, especially in single matches (compared to his brother yeet man for example). Randy Orton did his shtick and got the spot in a very obvious ending. He's going to job at Elimination Chamber again. Trick Williams was hilarious ringside with his lemon pepper steppers, the over exaggerated facial features... he's doing such a great job."

[5.0] "Not the most exciting triple threat you'll ever see. This went too long and dragged on since none of the wrestlers here are known for moving at a quick pace. This match really needed someone who could move things along. Everyone does their usual stuff, nothing you haven't seen before. Technically it was all fine, but it was also boring. Having Trick at ringside only for him to sit in a chair watching the entire match with zero involvement was odd. Orton hits a couple of RKOs to win and advances to the Elimination Chamber which makes sense since he's the biggest star by far. 5/10"

[6.0] "Next to Orton and Black, Solo Sikoa seems relatively bland, even as a character. But even in the ring, he adds no value to the match, which clearly thrives more on Black's innovations and Orton's charisma. It's a shame that Black is reduced to a minor role, while Sikoa continues to be teased as a threat. Orton is the natural winner in such a situation, and the match is entertaining nonetheless."

[5.0] "A very predictable outcome, we knew Aleister Black wasn't going to win. The same can be said for Solo Sikoa, but this match was very boring; there were three different styles, but the in-ring chemistry didn't mesh together well. I wanted Aleister Black to win. It would've been shocking, and something new, also unpredictable, but knowing how Randy Orton is trying so desperately to become a 15x World Champion, he was going to do everything it took to get the win tonight. The first 13 minutes in the match very boring the only bright spot was the final couple minutes of the match where Aleister Black try to hit a Black Mass but was caught into a RKO then Solo Sikoa was tryiong to be sneaky and with the voices in Randy Orton telling him he's behind you he laid the RKO to be the first man in the Men's Elimination Chamber Match now do I think Randy Orton will win no but I do sense him turning heel if he doesn't come away with the Elimniantion Chamber win."

[6.0] "Another predictable result on the day, but finally a decent match. As always, I think Solo is very solid a great worker in my opinion, not a phenomenon, but nowhere near as terrible as many people make him out to be. A good match with a solid pace at last. Orton pinning Solo to save Black from another heavy loss, though the question remains about what they actually plan to do with him."

[6.0] "I thought that this was a solid enough main event. It was a little plodding but the crowd was into it and I liked the finish."

[5.0] "This was a high-energy triple threat that leaned heavily on spectacle, but never quite escaped its formula. The match followed the familiar "one man on the floor while the other two fight" structure for much of its runtime. That kept things busy, but also predictable, and prevented any real narrative from breathing. Spots landed cleanly; Aleister Black's moonsault to the floor, Solo Sikoa's Samoan Drop, and Randy Orton's announce-table bumps all popped; yet the action often felt more like a checklist than a story. The final stretch was the strongest part of the bout. Rapid exchanges of signature moves, counter-for-counter sequences, and nearfalls created genuine tension, particularly when Black came close with repeated knees on Sikoa. Ultimately, though, the finish reverted to Orton's greatest hits: avoid the Spike, hit the RKO, and go home. Technically sharp, but dramatically familiar. Booking-wise, the result was the bigger sticking point. Orton qualifying for the Elimination Chamber felt like safe nostalgia rather than compelling progression. Sikoa carries a far more interesting arc and bumps like a star; Black is clearly capped in the hierarchy; and Orton's current character (injured veteran with an unbeatable finisher) has grown repetitive. The complete absence of Trick Williams also made the presentation feel oddly hollow for a Chamber qualifier. Entertaining in bursts, but structurally routine and creatively cautious. **1/4"

[4.0] "This sure did move at a metre a year. Slow paced and plodding, boringly structured to enable Randy Orton to do what he does best... nothing but the greatest hits. Superplex, table slams, RKO's, pin. It's boring. I'm sorry but it is BORING. This was as basic a TV match as they come. I was over Randy Orton five years ago and this match is exactly why. Both men in this match worked like jobbers here and arguably would add far more to the show and the EC with better booking. Instead they do nothing matches in nothing feuds and then job to Orton. I HATED this."

[7.0] "The ME is cool. We had some nice exchanges. Having Orton win is the best choice. Solo is too busy with the Wyatts6 and Black needs to go for the US title."

[5.0] "Very average main event. The right person won but whoever thought putting 3 of the slowest wrestlers together in one triple threat was a good idea, needs to have their pay docked"

[7.0] "In the last seconds I thought at least once and the situation gave the impression that anyone of these three could win this. In the end they chose Randy Orton and he deserves it. It's a shame about Solo and Aleister here and I wonder what's next for him. 7/10"
