Finn Balor will not be denied! Even though CM Punk has accepted Roman Reigns’ challenge for the World Heavyweight Championship, he will take on the Prinxe in Chicago at Elimination Chamber.

Given how there’s no chance Finn will win this match, what does this mean for his path to WrestleMania?

We also take a look at Liv Morgan– she has yet to pick which championship she will challenge for. We can think of a solid case for both the WWE and the World Titles.

The Main Event

Over the years there’s been a lot of wrestling gimmick matches. And some of them have gone on to be staples of wrestling like the Elimination Chamber and the Royal Rumble. And others are the Punjabi Prison match.
