On top of the previously reported announcements that AJ Lee would face Becky Lynch for the Women's Intercontinental Championship and CM Punk would defend the World Heavyweight Championship against Finn Balor at WWE Elimination Chamber, we also now know some more updates on the Elimination Chamber matches themselves, which will be going down at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois on February 28, 2026.
Winning the first Triple Threat qualifying match of the night was Rhea Ripley, who was victorious over Ivy Nile and Lyra Valkyria. The finishing sequence of the bout was Valkyria hitting Nightwing on Nile, but before she could capitalize on a pinfall attempt, Ripley grabbed her for a Riptide and got a three-count on her. The Eradicator joins Tiffany Stratton as the two women currently announced for the match, which still does not have a definitive championship title shot on the line, as Liv Morgan still has not officially made her pick for whether she would challenge Stephanie Vaquer or Jade Cargill, even after calling Vaquer a puta on this tonight's episode.
An update for the Men's Elimination Chamber match is that LA Knight will get an entry spot, as he defeated Austin Theory and Penta.
Despite Raw General Manager Adam Pearce threatening The Vision and warning them not to get involved in the match, Logan Paul and Bronson Reed nevertheless did go on the attack, nearly opening up a victory opportunity for Theory. However, Theory was then attacked by the mystery hooded man, who superkicked him, stomped him, and tossed him back into the ring. LA Knight was able to use that to his advantage and put Theory down with a BFT to win the match.
Knight joins Randy Orton as the two men currently set for the match.
It was announced that on next week's episode of Raw, two more qualifiers will be contested with Asuka, Bayley, and Nattie vying for one of the women's spots, and the men's spot going to either Dominik Mysterio, Gunther, or Je'Von Evans.
We currently still await the results of Friday Night SmackDown's qualifiers, with Cody Rhodes against Sami Zayn and Jacob Fatu, as well as Alexa Bliss, Giulia, and Zelina in action for a women's spot.
