This year’s Elimination Chamber was a spectacle to behold. While top stars from the men’s and women’s divisions graced the ring for the EC match, Rhea Ripley defended her title against Nia Jax. Apart from that, there were a couple more title defenses from the tag team division, and who could forget about the Grayson Waller Effect segment? However, fans were robbed of a match, and it involved Seth Rollins and an Aussie star.

According to internal reports, The Visionary was all set to face Australia’s Bronson Reed at this year’s Elimination Chamber. However, WWE had to scrap those plans after Rollins suffered an injury on the January 15 episode of Raw this year. For those who are unaware, Rollins defended his World Heavyweight Championship title against Jinder Mahal. However, he ended up getting injured.

While Rollins might recover and face Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 40, Reed might be having pretty bad luck. The Raw star faced off against Bobby Lashley to get his chance at the Elimination Chamber. However, he did not stand a chance against the Almighty and ended up losing. Following that, he posted a rather emotional tweet on X (formerly Twitter).
