Tiffany Stratton, Alexa Bliss, Asuka, Rhea Ripley, Kiana James, and Raquel Rodriguez. These are the names that willingly put their body on the line inside the 2026 Women’s WWE Elimination Chamber Match<\/a>, all for a chance at immortality and challenge Jade Cargill at WrestleMania 42 for the WWE Women’s Championship. Each and every one of these competitors had the ability and guts to let out their inner demons and cause devastation, and that’s exactly what they did in Chicago.<\/p>\n

As you may expect from the likes of Stratton, SKY, Asuka, and Ripley, who are all former world champions, they had an amazing early advantage, competing in this match once before and having a game plan already set. But, Rodriguez and James showed how power can sometimes overwhelm even experience, annihilating the field in several spots that made them look inhuman. Of course, experience and raw talent could only get you so far, as evidenced by the eventual winner.<\/p>\n

Everyone had an amazing showing, specifically someone like Raquel Rodriguez, who hit Kiana James with a Running Powerslam through the Pod and delivered a Tejana Bomb on James on top of Asuka to eliminate them both: the final three involved Stratton, Rodriguez, and the eventual winner, Rhea Ripley. Stratton and Rhea would team up, with Ripley delivering a Senton on top of the Pod onto Raquel, with Stratton following up with the Prettiest Moonsault ever to pin her.<\/p>\n

Stratton and Ripley had a mini-showdown that fans would want to see more of sooner rather than later. Tiffany was in control and after hitting a beautiful Swanton Bomb, followed by a Rolling Front Senton, Stratton would go for the kill with another Prettiest Moonsault ever, only for Rhea to push her off the edge. With one Riptide, Rhea Ripley finds herself on the fast track to WrestleMania 42, bouncing back from her tough loss on the previous night’s SmackDown<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It’s official, folks; Jade Cargill will put the WWE Women’s Title on the line against Rhea Ripley, undoubtedly her toughest test to date.<\/p>\n

The Road to WrestleMania 42 is now on its last legs, and this match promises to deliver in more ways than one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
