A Women’s Elimination Chamber match has been announced for the premium live event on February 19.
Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan, Doudrop, and Nikki A.S.H. will compete in the match, and the winner will challenge for the WWE RAW Women’s Championship at WrestleMania 38. There will also apparently be a mystery participant, based on the match graphic. This bout is especially newsworthy, given the previous restrictions about women’s wrestling in Saudi Arabia.
The official announcement from the WWE website is as follows:
Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan, Doudrop, and Nikki A.S.H. will battle inside the career-altering Elimination Chamber for the right to challenge the Raw Women’s Champion at WrestleMania.
Belair, Ripley and Nikki are all former Women’s Champions. Doudrop and Morgan have also recently challenged Becky Lynch for the Raw Women’s Title and have come within an eyelash of unseating the champion.
Of course, whether the winner will challenge Lynch on The Grandest Stage of Them All is still contingent on whether Big Time Becks can overcome WWE Hall of Famer Lita in a one-on-one championship showdown at WWE Elimination Chamber.
The Elimination Chamber Match will begin with two Superstars in the ring and four other competitors enclosed in their respective pods. Every five minutes, a pod door will open, allowing another competitor to join the contest. This process will continue until all pods are empty. When a Superstar is pinned or submits, that Superstar is eliminated and must exit the Chamber. The last Superstar remaining will be the winner.
Don’t miss all the action of WWE Elimination Chamber, presented in cooperation with The General Entertainment Authority and streaming LIVE from Jeddah beginning at noon ET/9 a.m. PT on Saturday, Feb. 19, on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else.
