Heading into Elimination Chamber 2025, the hint was already made about the course of pro-wrestling getting changed and it did for good measure as John Cena did the unthinkable by turning heel after years of remaining the top babyface figure in the WWE. The heel-turn also witnessed the formation of a surprising ally featuring Cena and The Rock.
WWE Elimination Chamber 2025 premium live event aired, live on Peacock/WWE Network from the Rogers Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, last night with the conclusive match of the night being the Men’s Elimination Chamber Match for an Undisputed WWE Championship Match at WrestleMania 41. The lineup for the match was John Cena vs. CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre vs. Logan Paul vs. Damian Priest vs. Seth Rollins.
Cena and Punk were the last two men remaining in the men’s Elimination Chamber 2025 matchup. After the two men hit each other with their finishing moves, Rollins stomped Punk on his way out of the chamber. Cena took advantage and faded out Punk with the STF to earn a title shot at Wrestlemania 41.
