WWE Elimination Chamber 2017: 3 Bold Predictions
By Dean Siemon
1. Bray Wyatt Wins WWE Championship
Some might feel that this doesn’t qualify to be a “bold prediction.” However, the track record of Bray Wyatt on the main roster may say otherwise. For years, Wyatt has shown that he is fully capable of being a main event heel in the WWE. Now seems like the perfect time to let him step into that role by winning the WWE Championship at Elimination Chamber.
The transformation from Husky Harris into Bray Wyatt has been fascinating. From being nothing more than a low-tier member of the Nexus in 2011 and becoming the Eater of Worlds took years to complete. Wyatt has feuded with many top-tier WWE superstars with many fans having high expectations.
But more often than not, Wyatt has been on the losing end since coming to the main roster in 2013. Aside from Daniel Bryan, the only major feud win came against Randy Orton. So while there are a number of reports stating that Wyatt is expected to win the WWE Championship, it feels like the case of the boy who cried wolf.

Having Orton win the Royal Rumble two weeks ago doesn’t make sense if Wyatt doesn’t win at Elimination Chamber. It would make the most sense considering there is a long-term storyline already in place between Orton and Wyatt.
