WWE Considering Major Title Match for Elimination Chamber

WrestleVotes reports discussions about Shinsuke Nakamura defending his United States Championship at WWE Elimination Chamber in Toronto.

WWE Considering Major Title Match for Elimination Chamber

WWE’s Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event is scheduled for March 1 at Toronto’s Rogers Centre. With two matches currently confirmed for the show, information has emerged about a potential championship defense.

During a Live Q&A on Backstage Pass, WrestleVotes discussed plans for the United States Championship at the event.

I’ve heard rumblings of a Shinsuke Nakamura title defense. Don’t know the opponent, but that’s one that I’ve heard could take place at the SkyDome.

Nakamura captured the United States Championship from LA Knight at WWE Survivor Series. His most recent title defense occurred on the January 10 episode of SmackDown, where he retained against Knight via disqualification.

The potential championship match could provide an opportunity for Nakamura to further establish his reign as United States Champion, as the title has received limited television exposure in recent weeks.
