Former WWE referee Jimmy Korderas criticized a recent WWE booking decision in his latest Reffin’ Rant video.
He didn’t like RAW Women’s Champion Bianca Belair winning the Triple Threat Match last Monday on Raw over Becky Lynch and Bayley, which would’ve allowed for a different Elimination Chamber match for the women’s division.
The match will see Asuka vs. Liv Morgan vs. Nikki Cross vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Natalya vs. Carmella. The winner of the Chamber match will face Belair at WrestleMania 39.
Korderas said, “Monday was the go-home show for Elimination Chamber, and they made me look forward to certain matches, but there was one match that they could’ve put a little twist on and didn’t. Missed opportunity. The women’s match that main-evented the show, very good match, a three-way: Bianca Belair, Becky Lynch, Bayley. If Becky or Bayley won the match, they would enter as the seventh participant in the Elimination Chamber match, and the match would start as a three-way. But with Bianca winning, neither one of them will enter the match. I get the idea that you don’t want your champion pinned, but you could have had one of those other participants enter that match and have seven people in it to differentiate it from the men’s match, which has six people in it or from all other Elimination Chambers, which have six participants. I just think it was a missed opportunity to do something different without having to pin Bianca for one to get into the match.”

In today's #ReffinRant looking forward to EC this weekend but on Mon night a missed opportunity to add some spice to 1 of the chamber matches IMO. ? #StaySafe pic.twitter.com/hIAmuou0dp
