But before that, all six teams, Miz & Morrison included will do battle this Friday on SmackDown in a Tag Team Gauntlet match for the chance to enter last in the Elimination Chamber match.

WWE Elimination Chamber final entrance on the line

It was announced on last week's episode of the Blue show that The Miz & John Morrison will have to defend their tag team titles against the aforementioned teams in an Elimination Chamber match. Miz & Morrison won the titles from The New Day at Super ShowDown that was held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Now, WWE has announced that a Gauntlet match will decide who will be the final entrant in the Elimination Chamber match. This was what the company's official site stated -

The WWE Universe will get a preview of the impending chaos of Sunday’s SmackDown Tag Team Championship Elimination Chamber Match, as six blue brand teams will battle for the right to enter the Elimination Chamber last in a Tag Team Gauntlet Match on Friday Night SmackDown.
The Miz & John Morrison have had little time to celebrate their newly-earned SmackDown Tag Team Titles, as the championship grind continues with the WWE Elimination Chamber sneak peek against The New Day, The Usos, Heavy Machinery, Lucha House Party and Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode.
