BasShayna Baszler is walking into tonight's Elimination Chamber pay-per-view as the heavy favorite to win the six-woman Elimination Chamber match and earn a Raw Women's Championship match with Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 36. After setting the record for most combined days as NXT Women's Champion at 549, Baszler jumped to the Raw roster in early February. Back on Feb. 10 she jumped Lynch and took a bite out of the back of "The Man's" neck, simply because she felt like it. Lynch has cut a number of promos on Baszler since, seemingly giving away the result of Sunday's match before it happens.

In the meantime, Baszler has been hyping up her appearance in the match by reflecting on his impressive mixed martial arts career. The South Dakota native made her pro MMA debut in October 2003, and built up a 15-11 record with stints in EliteXC, Strikeforce, Invicta and UFC.
