WWE Elimination Chamber is back on the schedule.
On Monday, WWE confirmed the Elimination Chamber event will return on February 19, and it will take place in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
The General Entertainment Authority, in cooperation with WWE, has announced that the Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event will be held at the world’s largest pillarless superdome in Jeddah, on Saturday, Feb.19, 2022. More details of the event will be announced in the coming weeks.
The Elimination Chamber show complements the commitment of the General Entertainment Authority to provide the most famous international events and entertainment shows. This show was preceded by several previous partnerships with WWE to present international shows in the kingdom, which achieved remarkable local and international success, including the recent WWE Crown Jewel show in Riyadh Season 2021 and WWE Super ShowDown in the previous Riyadh Season in early 2020.
Fightful Select first reported the Chamber match would return in 2022 for the next WWE event in Saudi Arabia. That report also noted that talks of bringing the Elimination Chamber match to Saudi Arabia was not a last-minute decision, as there have been rumblings of hosting the match there since the last event in the country in November.
The event was introduced in 2010, but the match itself was created in 2002. The Saudi Arabia event will mark the first WWE Elimination Chamber pay-per-view (now being branded as “Premium Live Events) to take place outside of the United States, and it will be the second Chamber match to take place internationally, as the third one took place in Puerto Rico at WWE New Year’s Revolution in 2005.
