Big Change For WWE Elimination Chamber Match Revealed
The Miz has removed himself from the WWE Title Elimination Chamber match at Sunday's Elimination Chamber pay-per-view.
Tonight's RAW opened up with WWE Champion Drew McIntyre on MizTV with The Miz. Drew ended up dropping Miz with a Glasgow Kiss headbutt, and then leaving. After Drew left, Miz cut a promo and announced that he was removing himself from the Chamber match.
Miz then issued a warning to any Superstar, whether they're going for the WWE Title or the WWE Universal Title, that when he cashes in his Money In the Bank briefcase, he will be the one standing in the ring as the new champion.
There's no word yet on who will replace Miz in the WWE Title Chamber with McIntyre, Randy Orton, Sheamus, Jeff Hardy and AJ Styles. A Gauntlet Match is scheduled for tonight's RAW to determine who will enter the Chamber last, and we should know more then.
The 2021 WWE Elimination Chamber pay-per-view will take place this coming Sunday, February 21 from the ThunderDome at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, FL. Below is the current card, along with a few shots from tonight's opener:
