Another Star Confirmed For The Elimination Chamber, Finn Balor Shows Off Awesome Mug

Sunday night at the WWE Royal Rumble John Cena defeated AJ Styles to become a 16 time WWE World Champion, and Randy Orton won the right to challenge for the belt by winning the Royal Rumble match.

Randy Orton is going to WrestleMania one way or another, but John Cena will have to retain his title at Elimination Chamber next month if he wants to defend it at the show of shows. WWE has confirmed that AJ Styles will also be competing in the Elimination Chamber match. The following was posted on WWE.com:

“While Orton’s opportunity at The Showcase of the Immortals is secure, Cena’s is not, yet. The Champ first must retain the title on Sunday, Feb. 12, in a WWE Championship Elimination Chamber Match announced weeks ago by SmackDown LIVE Commissioner Shane McMahon. As of now, the only other competitor confirmed for that six-Superstar battle is Styles. If Cena is successful at WWE Elimination Chamber, only then will his WrestleMania match against Orton be set in stone.”

Many fans were hoping to see the first ever WWE Universal Champion Finn Balor make his return during the Royal Rumble match on Sunday, but it was not meant to be. Although Finn Balor didn’t appear, he did show off a pretty awesome looking mug on Twitter that details the experience he went through during his match with Seth Rollins at SummerSlam in 2016.
