2024 WWE Elimination Chamber card, date, matches, rumors, start time, match card, predictions, location

WWE is headed Down Under. The promotion returns to Perth, Australia this weekend for the first time since 2018 when the Elimination Chamber PPV event arrives at the Optus Stadium. The event is a homecoming of sorts for women’s world champion Rhea Ripley.

The Elimination Chamber ranks among WWE’s most anticipated annual events. The card is anchored by its namesake. Six superstars are locked in a steel structure. Two superstars begin the match with additional entrants being released at timed intervals. Eliminations occur via pinfall or submission. The card often has WrestleMania implications, being sandwiched between the Royal Rumble and WWE’s biggest show of the year. Men’s and women’s Elimination Chamber matches have been announced with title implications.

The women’s Elimination Chamber match will cement a challenger for Ripley’s women’s world title. Ripley returns home to Australia in February with a major roadblock between her and WrestleMania. Ripley must overcome challenger Nia Jax if she wants to enter WrestleMania 40 as champion. The winner of the men’s Chamber match will challenge Seth Rollins for the world heavyweight title at the big showcase.

Take a look below at the confirmed matches for Elimination Chamber and take a glance at the crystal ball of what may come. The event streams live on Peacock on Feb. 24 with the main card starting at 5 a.m. ET.

2024 WWE Elimination Chamber predictions

Intercontinental championship — Gunther (c) vs. Jey Uso: A feud is brewing between Gunther and Uso. An intercontinental title match between the two is clearly on the horizon. The match is a big boost for both athletes. Uso ranks among Gunther’s most credible title challengers, plus it’s a chance for Uso to step back in the spotlight after being pushed aside in recent weeks. Uso and the New Day defeated Imperium in a six-man tag team match on the Feb. 12 episode of Raw.
