John Morrison def. Mustafa Ali, Ricochet and Elias to qualify for the United States Championship Triple Threat Match
The Guru of Greatness is on the cusp of gold.
John Morrison prevailed in a chaotic Fatal 4-Way Match on the Elimination Chamber Kickoff, earning a spot in the United States Title Triple Threat Match against champion Bobby Lashley and Riddle.
RETRIBUTION made their presence felt several times, though their involvement led to Morrison’s win.
JoMo nearly tasted victory soon after hitting Moonlight Drive on Ricochet, but Ricochet later evaded Starship Pain and landed a 450 splash on Ali, only for RETRIBUTION to once again interfere on their leader’s behalf. Attempting to take them all out with a tope con giro, Ricochet found himself caught by MACE and T-BAR and battered into the steel post.
With Ali preoccupied with RETRIBUTION doing his bidding, Morrison took advantage by stealing a pin out of nowhere for the chance to become United States Champion.
