In the shadowy underbelly of Chicago's United Center, the Elimination Chamber looms like a steel trap ready to snap shut. Clues point to Cody Rhodes emerging from the Men's Chamber unscathed, gunning for Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 42. Tiffany Stratton lurks in the Women's shadows, poised to claim her shot at Jade Cargill's gold. CM Punk defends his World Heavyweight Title against Finn Bálor in his own hometown—noir streets where alliances fracture and betrayals sting. Becky Lynch guards the Women's IC Title from AJ Lee's calculated comeback.
