Before the biggest shows of the wrestling ushered in the town, the Elimination Chamber will enter to set the stage right. One of the most marquee PLEs of the calendar has to include some X-factor in the card like every other year. Even until a few days ago, it seemed that the factor for 2024 would be the much sought-after Roman Reigns vs The Rock epic encounter. But as per the latest report, it won’t be the case. WWE reportedly isn’t proceeding with this rumored match. Rather, they didn’t even seal Roman Reigns for the showdown and possibly won’t have any plan to do so either.
With this, it begs the question then who can be the man to get the top billing, filling the void of the Tribal Chief?
Now, we all got our answer as an exclusive report from Fox Sports confirmed CM Punk’s appearance at the WWE Elimination Chamber in February.
CM Punk will be wrestling on WWE’s Elimination Chamber show next month at Optus stadium in Perth Australia.
