WWE Bringing Back Elimination Chamber PPV This Month, Title Matches Confirmed For Elimination Chamber

Last night on RAW, WWE announced they are bringing back the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view. It will be available exclusively on the WWE Network. It will take place on May 31st at the American Bank Center in Corpus Christi, Texas.

PWInsider reports that the decision to bring back the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view was made within the last few days. Talents backstage at RAW were surprised to hear the announcement.

One of the reasons WWE did away with the Elimination Chamber was due to the lack of arenas that would allow the setup of the Chamber when renovations to older arenas made it impossible for them to handle the structure.

WWE is running a live event that same night May 31st in Greenville, SC. John Cena, King Barrett and Rusev are advertised for that event but the card is subject to change. The event starts at 1pm EST so technically they could get some of the top Superstars to Texas for the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view event.

WWE has confirmed that the newly vacated Intercontinental Title and the WWE Tag Team Titles will be decided inside the Elimination Chamber.

WWE also has confirmed that the WWE World Heavyweight Title and the United States Title will be defended at Elimination Chamber but not inside the Chamber.

Live with Chris Jericho recap

One of the many perks of the WWE NETWORK are the exclusives you get. One of those exclusives is Live with Chris Jericho.

Tonight was the 2nd edition of the show and Chris Jericho’s guest was none other than Stephanie McMahon herself. In this in depth one on one conversation many topics were covered. Everything from how Stephanie got started in the business, her relationship with her husband Triple H, her favorite moments in her career, her feud with Jericho, her infamous slap, the segment with Ronda Rousey at mania and so much more.

While watching this interview you can’t help but love Stephanie. She truly is an incredible woman with a big heart and an undying love for this business. Even though Stephanie portrays a heel on television that couldn’t be further from the truth. Stephanie however says playing a heel is important especially when she gets what’s coming to her because it shows the WWE universe to stand up to the bully. She talked about what an impact Be a Star has had and how much she wishes it was around in the early days.

Stephanie admits that she loves being a “Bitch” on television and the boos she receives is the greatest feeling. Boos are like a standing ovation to heels and she absolutely loves it.

On working with Ronda Rousey.

Stephanie said that from the moment she slapped The Rock and heard the crowd chatting for Ronda she knew the moment was going to be good. She said to work with someone as empowering as Ronda was incredible. She says what she loves about Ronda is that she isn’t afraid to be herself and she hopes that her daughters can learn to be like her.

She also went on to say that Ronda proves that women can main event and she hopes to one day do the same with the WWE divas. She continued to say she wants to work with Ronda again but only time will tell and she was proud of that mania moment.

Regarding #GiveDivasAChance

Stephanie spoke on that it was trending on Twitter for 3 days and that’s because the fans wanted to be heard. She went on to say that the moment was so important that Vince McMahon himself had to respond. Stephanie went on to say that she continues to push #GiveDivasAchance everyday and hopes that one day they can get a true chance to prove themselves.

On her favorite match/moment.

Her match with Brie Bella is her favorite thing in her career for two reasons.

  • It had been 11 years since she last competed in the ring prior to that moment
  • Her 3 daughters where in the crowd

When describing this moment Stephanie got emotional because after the match concluded and she went backstage she was met by her daughters chanting “you still got it

In this interview she also talked about

  • Her oldest daughter being a natural-born heel
  • Working with Chris Jericho
  • Sharing Vickie Guerrero’s final moment of her career with her
  • Being scared by George ” the animal steal”
  • Her brother Shane

If you missed this one I highly suggest you watch it on demand on the network if you can or find it on YouTube or something because it was awesome and insightful.
