Where to watch WWE Elimination Chamber 2026: Start time in Chicago, live stream, full match card
All the information you need to watch the WWE Elimination Chamber live event in Chicago
WWE Elimination Chamber is the final step before WrestleMania 42's top matches are locked in. CM Punk's Chicago homecoming headlines the card, with Finn Balor aiming to snatch his world heavyweight title and match with Roman Reigns.
Punk vs. Balor swap homefield advantage in their second meeting. In January, Balor received a rowdy ovation from his fellow Irishmen in a spirited but unsuccessful attempt to win the world heavyweight championship. Now, Balor aims to return the favor by spoiling Punk's return home. It might be the final world title shot for Balor as he enters his 25th year as a professional wrestler.
"I have this massive stain on my career from 10 years ago when I got hurt and had to relinquish the universal championship," Balor told CBS Sports this week. "...The only way to fix that is by becoming world champion again."
The pair of namesake matches are also set for Saturday night. Six men and six women will enter the Elimination Chamber, with the winners of the men's and women's matches earning their shot at a world title. With men's Royal Rumble winner Roman Reigns already choosing world heavyweight champion CM Punk and women's winner Liv Morgan selecting women's world champion Stephanie Vaquer, that leaves WWE champion Drew McIntyre and WWE women's champion Jade Cargill for the Elimination Chamber winners.
The men's match sees Randy Orton, LA Knight, Cody Rhodes, Je'Von Evans, Trick Williams and Logan Paul square off. Meanwhile, Tiffany Stratton, Rhea Ripley, Alexa Bliss, Asuka, Kiana James and Raquel Rodriguez are set to throw down in the women's match.
Below is how you can catch all the action on Saturday night. Be sure to check out our preview and predictions for the event.
