CM Punk Could Still Headline WrestleMania 41 Even With Elimination Chamber Loss, WWE Analyst Says

On his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Sam Roberts presented a potential path for CM Punk to reach the WrestleMania 41 main event. The discussion emerged after Punk earned his place in the Elimination Chamber match by defeating Sami Zayn in a qualifying bout.

It’s fair to believe that Roman Reigns is gonna get that main event spot at WrestleMania, whether there’s a title on the line or not. And if you are willing to go with me on that, if you are willing to say, ‘Yes Sam, you’re right. It is fair to say that Roman Reigns is going to get that main event match,’ what if CM Punk uses his favor to get added to whatever match Roman Reigns has at WrestleMania?

The winner of the Elimination Chamber will challenge Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas. Punk has openly expressed his desire to headline WrestleMania for the first time in his career, though he fell short in the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble match.
