Cody Rhodes' WWE Elimination Chamber Plans Revealed

WWE's plans for Cody Rhodes at the upcoming Elimination Chamber pay-per-view have been revealed.

Rhodes won't be wrestling at the event and WWE have revealed Cody and World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins will be guests on the Grayson Waller Effect at Elimination Chamber.

Grayson Waller addressed the segment, saying:

"Is anyone else as sick and tired of hearing about stories as I am? Like this one, for example, imagine getting slapped by your boss in front of thousands of people, millions online, and doing nothing about it. (Laughs) Couldn't be me! Hold me back! Hold me back! Who am I to judge? Because right now it's the biggest thing in entertainment, and it got me thinking that since I'm basically the Prime Minister of Australia, I needed to give something back to the Australian people and bring the biggest story in entertainment to my house. Optus Stadium. To Perth, to Elimination Chamber in Australia. So before they have to start worrying about finishing stories or worrying about The Rock or The Tribal Chief, acknowledge by the way, let's take some stress off these guys' shoulders and give them a gift. Something that everyone wants but not everyone gets, the Grayson Waller rub. So Australia, get ready for the biggest Grayson Waller Effect in history with my guests, the World Heavyweight Champion, Seth 'Freakin' Rollins, and the winner of the 2024 Royal Rumble, Cody Rhodes. See you there, mates."

Rhodes is set to main event WrestleMania 40 when he challenges Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. The match was made official after Rhodes changed his mind and decided to main event WrestleMania after initially stepping aside for The Rock. This led to The Rock slapping Cody at the WrestleMania 40 kickoff event.

There have been several reports about why WWE changed their WrestleMania 40 main event plans, with the latest suggestion being that The Rock decided the main event should be Reigns vs. Rhodes following fan backlash.
