The WWE Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event was headlined by Sami Zayn vs Roman Reigns for the Undisputed Universal Championship, which was pure cinema for many fans.
Apart from that, the show featured two Elimination Chamber matches. Austin Theory would successfully retain his United States Championship, while Asuka would win in the Women’s Elimination Chamber match. It was a historic night, where WWE broke gate records and had a legit sellout as well.
