Even the host arena website has also confirmed the same by updating their advertisements.

Roman Reigns was the original favorite to win the earlier speculated match. But as confirmed by WWE, he will now face Goldberg for the Universal Championship, directly.
As for the third Elimination Chamber match, it appeared WWE had plans for a second one for the Women’s division after Lacey Evans referenced the same during a SmackDown segment. Till now, the ongoing suggests Evans and five other superstars will get a shot for the SmackDown Women’s Title via this upcoming contest. But no confirmations were made regarding this.
The first Elimination Chamber match was confirmed from RAW Women’s Division where we will see Shayna Baszler, Ruby Riott, Sarah Logan, Natalya, Liv Morgan, and WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Asuka battle. The winner will go on to WrestleMania 36 challenging RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch. Baszler is the top favorite to win this Chamber match.
