John Morrison will replace Keith Lee in the United States Championship Match at WWE Elimination Chamber.
Lee was pulled from WWE Elimination Chamber due to an injury. He was scheduled to face Riddle and Lashley for the title. WWE then announced a Fatal 4-Way Match to determine his replacement for the Kickoff Show. Elias,
Ricochet, John Morrison and Mustafa Ali faced off to earn the right to take Lee’s place.
Ricochet reignited his feud with Mustafa Ali after Retribution unsuccessfully recruited the former WWE United States Champion.

The ringside presence of Retribution proved to be a factor, as Slapjack broke up a pin from Elias. Ricochet rallied with a flurry of offense. He nearly pinned Ali after a 450 Splash, but Retribution broke up the pin. Mace and T-Bar then slammed Ricochet into the ring post.
Get out of #RETRIBUTION's way in a hurry, @TheRealMorrison, because you've got a #USTitle Match later tonight! #WWEChamber pic.twitter.com/AyAAA50LnE
