Follow on Google News The final premium live event WWE will hold before WrestleMania 42 is Elimination Chamber, scheduled for February 28 at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
Although no matches have yet been officially confirmed for the event, WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H announced during his appearance on ESPN’s Get Up that the traditional Men’s and Women’s Elimination Chamber Matches will have a major impact on the Showcase of Immortals.
Triple H revealed that, just as the winners of the Royal Rumble Matches earn the right to choose which world championship they will challenge for in the main events of WrestleMania 42, the winners of the Chamber Matches will also secure their place on the same stage.
Hunter, however, did not clarify whether the Elimination Chamber matches will serve as #1 Contender’s Matches, or if the top men’s and women’s championships will be defended inside the structure.
In the same interview, Triple H also promised major surprises for the Royal Rumble taking place this Saturday in Saudi Arabia, with a strong focus on the Battle Royal Matches.
So far, WWE has announced the following names for Elimination Chamber: CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, Jey Uso, Bron Breakker, IYO SKY, Becky Lynch, Rhea Ripley, Stephanie Vaquer, Tiffany Stratton, and Jade Cargill.
