WWE Elimination Chamber is the last major stop on the Road to WrestleMania and there’s plenty that could change this evening.
The long-standing match and premium live event heads to Saudi Arabia this year as part of the company’s controversial partnership, and it follows Crown Jewel’s example of an absolutely stacked card on paper.
With four championship bouts, three grudge matches and a Raw Women’s Title shot hanging in the balance, there is reason to believe fans will be treated so a great night of in-ring action.
There’s the potential for surprises too, from title changes to surprise debuts – plus the joys of an earlier start time for fans in the UK.
As ever, we’ve put together our regular guide with the full match card, streaming details and more.
Here’s everything you need to know about the show…

What can you expect from WWE Elimination Chamber? Predictions for the big show
Like we said, tonight’s card looks stacked on paper, and every match has the possibility to deliver on some level – particularly as the Falls Count Anywhere stipulation opens up Drew McIntyre and Madcap Moss to have some fun before the former picks up the win.
Roman Reigns and Becky Lynch should absolutely retain their respective championships against legendary challengers, albeit in very different circumstances.
In an ideal world, Big Time Becks will beat Lita in a great dream match, while the Tribal Chief could stay true to his promise to demolish Goldberg.

Bianca Belair seems the perfect choice to win the Elimination Chamber match and earn herself a shot at Lynch to avenge her 26-second loss at SummerSlam 2021, while the men’s Chamber match is much harder to predict.
It’s not clear what direction the company is going in for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 38, which creates a fascinating field where several winners are very possible.
Seth Rollins could get the gold to set up some kind of bout in April, and while it’s hard to look past Brock Lesnar there’s the chance Reigns can somehow screw him out of the gold.

Ronda Rousey and Naomi will most likely win, but it’d be more interesting to see Charlotte Flair and Sonya Deville steal a victory to add some drama to the respective storylines.
Elsewhere, The Usos will almost definitely retain the titles over The Viking Raiders in what could be a fantastic match given enough time, while The Miz and Rey Mysterio is difficult to call as it’s unclear where each star will be going next.
There’s always the chance of surprises here, with some people wondering if Cody Rhodes could make his WWE return just days after confirming his AEW exit.
