The opening segment of the Grayson Waller Effect featured Austin Theory making an appearance with Grayson Waller. Waller played a bit with the crowd before giving way to Seth “Freakin” Rollins who received a standing ovation. Grayson also gave way to Cody Rhodes, who also got a great reception from fans. And without wasting much time, the Architect addressed the fans and did a big reveal. When Grayson asked Rollins who he wanted to face at WrestleMania. Rollins reveals that he will be medically cleared in a few days, adding that whoever his opponent is, he will have no chance of defeating the ‘Visionary’.
Rollins suffered a torn MCL and partially torn meniscus during a match against Jinder Mahal on the January 15 episode of RAW. Originally, Seth Rollins was expected to face CM Punk at WrestleMania. However, Punk’s injury changed all plans, so now he will have to face Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania as the Scottish Warrior just won the 2024 Elimination Chamber. But there’s still much to celebrate at the Rollins house, as his partner Becky Lynch, just won the Women’s Elimination match.

Becky Lynch earned a title shot after defeating Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan, Tiffany Stratton, Naomi, and Raquel Rodriguez inside the Elimination Chamber. This was the opening matchup of WWE’s Premium Live Event in Perth, Australia. Naomi and The Man were in charge of kicking off the fight. Stratton was the first to emerge from her chamber and struggled to gain dominance despite the support she received from the fans. She was followed by Morgan, who kept her as her primary target during her first moments in competition.
Before Raquel’s entry, Tiffany claimed the first elimination of Naomi. The EST ultimately broke free, maintaining dominance over all of its rivals. The second elimination came when Morgan caught Stratton for the three-count. Just seconds later, Bianca landed her KO on Raquel to get her out of the cage.
