The No. 1 contender for the Intercontinental Championship dominated the match until Kingston hit a missile dropkick.
Kingston's speed earned him the advantage for a few moments.
He hit the SOS, but the three-count didn't hold as Swagger's foot was on the rope. Swagger soon clamped on Kingston's ankle and forced him to tap.
Big E, scheduled for action after Swagger, entered and stared his Elimination Chamber foe down. The Real American ducked out of the ring and retreated.
Result: Swagger wins via submission.

Nothing much to store in the memory bank from this one, but it's smart to give Swagger some momentum here but, at the same time, give Kingston the near-win as well.
There wasn't an electric energy to the Swagger and Big E staredown, largely because they have not had any buildup to this point.
