WWE Elimination Chamber 2026 is set for February 28 at the United Center in Chicago, featuring high-stakes matches that will shape WrestleMania 42. The men’s Elimination Chamber match includes Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, LA Knight, Trick Williams, Je’Von Evans, and Logan Paul, with the winner earning a WWE championship match against Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania. Rhodes is the favorite to win, but McIntyre, though not in the match, may interfere to prevent Rhodes from securing his spot. The women’s Elimination Chamber match will determine the challenger for Jade Cargill’s WWE women’s championship, with Rhea Ripley and Tiffany Stratton as top contenders.
Other key matches include CM Punk defending the World Heavyweight Championship against Finn Balor, who seeks redemption after a recent loss, and Becky Lynch defending the Women’s Intercontinental Championship against AJ Lee, who has been a persistent rival since her return. Additionally, a mystery crate teased on Raw and SmackDown is expected to be revealed during the event, potentially adding a surprise element to the show. Fans can watch the event live on ESPN in the U.S. and Netflix internationally.
