Grudge Match Added To Elimination Chamber 2022
After weeks of going back and forth in verbal spats with claims of cheating lowbrow shots at Dominik Mysterio’s DNA, The Miz and Rey Mysterio will go one-on-one in Saudi Arabia at WWE Elimination Chamber.
WWE announced this match during Monday Night Raw on February 14. this is the first time the two superstars will go one-on-one on pay-per-view in ten years since the 2012 SummerSlam event.
From WWE:
The Miz’s search for the respect and admiration he believes he deserves has set him on a collision course with Rey Mysterio at WWE Elimination Chamber in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The A-Lister felt slighted when Mysterio and not himself was chosen to be on the cover of WWE 2K22, and he disrespected The Ultimate Underdog in front of his son Dominik during a heated “Miz TV.”
The war of words came on the heels of The Miz getting Rey Mysterio ejected from ringside thanks to some underhanded tactics to pull off a victory against a distracted Dominik Mysterio. With tempers reaching their boiling points following a snide remark by Miz, Rey Mysterio returned the favor to cause The A-Lister to lose a rematch against Dominik.
The back-and-forth continued on Monday Night Raw as The Miz joined the commentary table during The Mysterios’ match against Raw Tag Team Champions Alpha Academy. The A-Lister’s antics ended up costing Rey & Dominik the victory, and Miz capped it all off by delivering a brutal Skull-Crushing Finale to The Master of the 619.
Will The Miz show the WWE Universe why he deserves respect, or will Rey Mysterio prove why he is a cover star?
