CM Punk is currently scheduled to defend his WWE World Heavyweight Championship against Roman Reigns in the main event of this April’s WrestleMania 42 event in Las Vegas, Nevada.
WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select is reporting that one proposed idea for Elimination Chamber would see Finn Balor challenge CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship.
According to Sean Ross Sapp the plan has long been for CM Punk to compete at the Elimination Chamber premium live event in some capacity as the show is in his hometown of Chicago. One plan Sapp heard of was for CM Punk to accept a rematch with Finn Balor on “his turf” after he defended the title against Balor on Raw in Northern Ireland.
The 2026 Elimination Chamber premium live event will emanate from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois on February 28.
