5 Reasons why Rey Mysterio isn't in the WWE Championship match at WWE Elimination Chamber 2019

Why has WWE left Mysterio out of this colossal match?
Why has WWE left Mysterio out of this colossal match?

So many of us often complain about the fact that the WWE Championship match never gets to close a show these days. At the Elimination Chamber, there's a big possibility that this could actually take place. 6 men will enter the Elimination Chamber to challenge WWE Champion Daniel Bryan. Only one man will emerge from the colossal structure to rule the roost on the blue brand thereafter.

Of course, the lineup consists of the who's who of the sports entertainment industry. But the omission of Rey Mysterio is an interesting point that's been raised by more than one reader. Why is one of the greatest of all time sitting out of this match, then?

I do not know the answer, of course, but I can guess. My assumptions are based on WWE's past booking patterns and rumours that are prevalent right now.

Please chime in with your own assumptions and theories as well.


#5 Unfinished business with Andrade

One may have assumed that the feud with Andrade 'Cien' Almas was done. After all, the two men put arguably on two of the best matches seen in the history of SmackDown Live. Mysterio proved during the course of those matches that he's still as good as he always has been.

This week, Andrade and Zelina Vega cut a promo during the course of the show where Vega said that her business associate was going to end Rey Mysterio. It is clear that WWE feels that this feud has the legs to go further and there may be at least one more match left to see. I'm guessing this will happen at the Elimination Chamber.

This may be one of the reasons why Mysterio isn't in the Elimination Chamber match, I guess. Oh well, I don't mind another Mysterio vs. Andrade match, to be quite honest.
