Reasons for the sudden change in the planned winner of the Men's Elimination Chamber
Earlier, John Cena was reportedly expected to win the Men's Elimination Chamber, securing a spot for Wrestlemania 41 for the Undisputed WWE Championship. Now, the change in the storyline is due to The Rock's return on Smackdown on Feb 21, 2025.
Since The Rock's return, he has been actively trying to prove his position as the Board of Director of TKO. Recently, he asked Cody Rhodes to 'sell his soul to him' and asked Cody to be his “corporate champion” and warned him to respond carefully.
The sudden changes in the storyline were reported on Backstage Pass and the report stated WWE plans to make Drew Mclntyre the winner of the Men's Elimination Chamber.
Drew Mclntyre as the winner will completely change the storyline of the Men's Elimination Chamber. As the previous storyline had John Cena and CM Punk, who are the American superstars, their epic rivalry as the old and reigning American superstar was already bringing in the heat.
The Women's Elimination Chamber also features some major storylines like the return of Jade Cargill. Stars like Liv Morgan, Bianca Belair, Alexa Bliss, Bayley, Naomi, and Roxanne Perez will battle it out at the Women's Elimination Chamber to get a shot at Wrestlemania 41.
