Here Is Everything We Learned From WWE Elimination Chamber Press Event in Perth

The Elimination Chamber is set to take place in the Optus Stadium in Perth, Australia on 24th February. The Live Press Conference for the event just took place today in the same stadium. The conference was filled with thousands of Australian fans ready to see their favorite wrestlers.

So what happened at the Conference today? Here is everything you need to know about the live conference. 

The lineup for today’s event was as follows:

• An explosive discussion featuring none other than “The Viper” Randy Orton, and other wrestling stars like United States Champion Logan Paul, as they discuss who emerges victorious in the Men’s Elimination Chamber Match. 
• WWE Women’s World Champion, the unstoppable “The Eradicator” Rhea Ripley, also shares insights on her upcoming showdown against the formidable “The Irresistible Force” Nia Jax.
• But that’s not all – because WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque himself graced the stage. He hypes up the crowd for Elimination Chamber and possibly drops some major breaking news that could shake up the entire WWE landscape. 

The Press Conference Live Coverage:

The Men’s Match

Backstage, one may see Kevin Owens, Randy Orton, and Seth Rollins. Additionally seen are a handful more WWE Superstars as well as Paul “Triple H” Levesque, the company’s chief content officer.

WWE commentator Michael Cole highlighted Australia’s role in the WWE, particularly as the home of Rhea Ripley. He highlighted Optus Stadium as a grand Elimination Chamber venue. The Australian crowd went crazy when they saw their homeboy Grayson Waller walking on stage. 

The spectators gave a massive cheer when the WWE Superstar said that he’d add the “Grayson Waller Effect” to the PLE. Waller also stirred up trouble for John Cena by saying that the 16-time WWE Champ didn’t want WWE to come to Australia. This prompted him to ask his home crowd to show everyone that WWE Universe Australia was the best set of fans out there.

Triple H also stepped in and praised the fierce response from the Perth fans, and said that the city was a big reason for EC to visit Australia. The Game also reiterated how the Elimination Chamber marks one of the most important PLEs leading to WrestleMania. He said that although Cody Rhodes will miss this conference he would still be there at the Elimination Chamber PPV. Right after him, his protege Rollins took over the stage.

The WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins greeted the crowd and Perth roared back in response. The Architect showcased his surety for his upcoming showdown against The Rock and Roman Reigns as he’ll finally take the fight to the Tribal Chief alongside Cody Rhodes. The shine and glam of Rollins were soon replaced by the rugged cannonball, Kevin Owens.

KO showed a humble side of himself before the crowd, which is a rare sight even for the ones watching him from his pre-WWE days. KO’s address was followed by RKO, and the Australians totally loved how Randy Orton laid out his Elimination Chamber victory plans.

The set of cheers was later on replaced by boos when US Champ Logan Paul came over.  Then a back-and-forth heated argument took place between Owens and Paul, which was leading to a physical brawl between the two.

However, Triple H stepped in and de-escalated the situation quickly. Here this men’s segment was ended.

Next up was the women’s division, which featured the ravishing and powerful Becky Lynch, Rhea Ripley, and Bianca Belair.

Matches for women

The Irish pro wrestling superstar Becky Lynch made her way to the spectators and welcomed them. The man talked about how much of a good time she was having in Australia, but that wouldn’t be the case for her opponents. Tiffany Stratton and Bianca Belair made an impression on the crowd as well, but Lynch clearly had the floor.

Announcing the Elimination Chamber kickoff, it was revealed that the Women’s tag team match will strike the gong for the PLE. Soon after, Nia Jax entered the scene and talked about her Australian heritage. Jax was born in Sydney, and thus, will also be fighting before her home crowd like Rhea Ripley. However, when Mami arrived, the needle immediately shifted to who was the real beneficiary of the home turf advantage.

The Judgment Day Member dismissed Jax’s words and once again established that she would be the one walking out with the top gold. Rhea Ripley even drowned Jax with a Prime Drink while saying, “splash b****”. While this could have set off a big fight, Triple H calmed things down once again.

After Jax exited, homeboy Grayson Waller returned and both Mami and Waller enjoyed a Prime drink from shoes. With this, the press event for the Elimination Chamber came to a shining and spectacular end. Have you already decided on who you are going to support at the EC?
