This Sunday is WWE Elimination Chamber, the final RAW brand pay-per-view before WrestleMania, and because of recent changes the final RAW exclusive pay-per-view for the foreseeable future. There are two Chamber matches this year, with the women’s title and the Universal Championship #1 contender’s spot on the line, plus Asuka vs. Nia Jax and Ronda Rousey signing her WWE contract. Join us for live coverage starting with the pre-show at 7/6c.
We will be live on Facebook this Sunday afternoon at 3PM ET with a full Elimination Chamber pre-show, running down the card and offering our predictions.
NJPW is live on New Japan World Saturday morning at 4:30am ET with Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi taking on Cody Rhodes and Marty Scurll, plus a NEVER 6-Man Championship match.
