As someone born and raised in Western Australia, I never thought I'd live to see the day where a WWE event like this would come to our city.
To Australia? Sure. But it would be in Sydney or Melbourne on the east coast. The WA Government is spending big and we have a stadium that is 5 years old now that they keep drawing big events to.
Yes, our city sucks, but damn what an event to draw here. I've NEVER been to a WWE event. They have been here before, but I was out of my wrestling phase in my 20s at that point. As someone in his 40s, with kids, this is really surreal that this will happen. The closest I ever got was some Legends of Wrestling event of washed up guys from the 80s, and that was like mid-90s when I went. I do remember Jake the Snake being given a West Coast Eagles shirt and he put it on in front of the crowd.

This is an open roof, how are they gonna do the cage? Wrestlemania style with a canopy over the ring I guess?

Awesome, I hope you have a great time. Doing the Chamber in a new international location in a big stadium really helps it feel big time. I’m looking forward to seeing (on TV) the hero’s welcome that Rhea Ripley will get that night, and I can only imagine that Grayson Waller will be trying to turn his whole country against him.

They could've done a better PPV than Elimination Chamber.
Backlash or Money In The Bank would've been cool.

Awesome that Aussie gets an actual PPV and not just a glorified house show like Super Showdown. Of course it had to be in Perth though which for me, is in the far corner of Australia and takes an extra five hours to fly compared to the likes of Sydney or Melbourne. Although I'm expecting tickets to be expensive as hell, I wouldn't rule out heading over to see it.

Great get for Australia! I loved Super Showdown, and being there live was a whole different experience, and i'm sure this show will be even bigger & better!
For me, now i have 5 months to get signed, work through NXT, get called up, and enter the Chamber. Realistic plan if i say so myself.
