<\/p>\nWWE Raw will begin the process of finding the final WrestleMania 42 main eventers this week. The Elimination Chamber qualifiers kick off to find the six people who will enter the chamber in Chicago.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the World Tag Team Championship is on the line and Nattie and Maxxine Dupri square off.<\/p>\n
Here’s our full preview for WWE Raw from the Rocket Arena in Cleveland, OH. WWE Raw starts at 8\/7c.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Natalya debuted in WWE 18 years ago. It’s difficult to say when things cooled down for her, but she will look to revitalise her career on WWE Raw. Nattie is done building people up and will attempt to tear down her latest protege, Maxxine Dupri. Dupri has claimed she will break Nattie’s ankle.<\/span><\/p>\n Tozawa has been in WWE for 10 years and took to social media to acknowledge he hadn’t reached his potential yet. His tag team partner, Otis<\/a>, claimed he wanted “The Alpha Academy” to be taken more seriously in 2026. They earned the chance to do so when they won a No.1 contender match. The odd couple of Otis and Tozawa take on twin brothers and the most decorated tag team ever, The Usos. <\/span><\/p>\n But Jimmy Uso hasn’t been seen for a few weeks, and Jey Uso’s focus seems to be firmly back on Yeeting. A major upset – a decade in design – could be on the cards.<\/span><\/p>\n Qualifying matches will take place to allow people to earn a place in the Elimination Chamber.<\/a> With Roman Reigns cashing in his Royal Rumble win to face CM Punk at WrestleMania 42, a date with the Undisputed WWE Champion – Drew McIntyre – is probably the prize on offer.<\/span><\/p>\n Finn B\u00e1lor has vowed he will get another shot at the World Heavyweight Championship<\/a>. But with the big money Punk vs. Reigns match set, perhaps B\u00e1lor will look for the Elimination Chamber and a shot at McIntyre.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n It is hard to see past Cody Rhodes being the eventual winner. Bron Breakker<\/a> and the rest of “The Vision” will probably want a place in these matches too.<\/span><\/p>\n Meanwhile, every woman will want a place in the Chamber to earn a shot at (probably) Jade Cargill. With a lot of tag team action recently, a few friendships could be put to the test on the way to WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0<\/i><\/em>Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/i><\/u><\/em><\/a> for more on Elimination Chamber, WrestleMania 42, <\/i><\/em>and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
