WWE Elimination Chamber 2024, currently in Perth, Australia, is among WWE’s biggest PLEs this year. Fans are hyped for both men’s and women’s Elimination Chamber matches. The Women’s World Championship and tag team titles are also on the line. Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins will make an appearance on The Grayson Waller Effect. With this much excitement, it comes as no surprise that The American Nightmare saw a shortage of merchandise even before the show began.
Cody Rhodes thanks the Australian audience for emptying out his merchandise stands
It is no surprise that Rhodes is one of the biggest names in the WWE. The babyface has had a stellar run since his return to the company, winning back-to-back Royal Rumbles in 2023 and 2024. Furthermore, nothing says beloved babyface, as his merchandise is sold out even before the show starts. This is the situation Rhodes faced as he geared up for the Elimination Chamber in Perth, Australia.

Taking to social media, Rhodes posted, “Perth god bless!

Despite not performing in a match, fans are excited to see Rhodes and Rollins on the Waller Effect.

Fans hoped to see Rhodes and Rollins team up to take on Dwayne Johnson and Reigns at Elimination Chamber. While nothing is official, fans still hope to see Rhodes in action on this massive PLE stage. Rollins will be watching the men’s Chamber match as the winner will contest for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania XL.
Could Grayson Waller be setting a trap for Cody Rhodes?
In another bit of incredible storytelling by the WWE, Waller has been seen with The Bloodline on two separate occasions. On the last episode of SmackDown, Paul Heyman was seen mouthing “New Paul Heyman guy” to Waller during the show.

This episode of SmackDown took things one step further with Waller meeting with Reigns in his room. Reigns said to the camera that he wanted to tell Waller something for his ears only. On both occasions, the WWE Universe has no idea what talks went down between Waller and The Bloodline. Seeing the animosity between The Bloodline and Rhodes, this interview could spell doom for The American Nightmare in Perth.
