Bengaluru, Feb 19: Tonight marks the final night of WWE Raw before the last Raw-exclusive PPV, Elimination Chamber on this Sunday.
This will be setting up the main event lineups for Wrestlemania from the flagship show. But, prior to that, we will be having major buildups with a gauntlet match among the seven men that will be gunning for the Universal Championship’s contender’s spot.
The stakes are high around the Women’s Championship, as well since the title will be on the line inside the steel cage structure. Tonight’s show will emanate from the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, Arizona.
The live streaming of the episode will be available on Ten 1 Network from 6.30 AM onwards whereas the repeat will go on air at 12 PM, 4 PM and 9 PM on the same network, tomorrow (February 20).
In case you don’t know, Kurt Angle took a monumental decision, last week while deciding the final participant of the Elimination Chamber match.
Following Balor and Rollins getting the pinfall win at the same time, he announced a seven-man Chamber Match, for the first time ever.
WWE.com advertised a huge gauntlet match featuring all seven superstars on tonight’s main event. Check out the confirmation,

Now, we have never seen or heard about seven men participating in the Chamber structure. Hence, there should be some changes in the rules of the match. We would be let known on WWE Raw about whether there would be one extra pod available for this seven men. Also, it will be interesting to know if three men will start the No-DQ match instead of two.
Tonight, Alexa Bliss will team up with Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville against Mickie James, Bayley and Sasha Banks in big six-woman tag team action. Nia Jax will also try to give a strong message before heading into her singles match against Asuka.
The champion, The Bar’s challengers should be officially announced on tonight’s show, as well. Plus, WWE legend, Diamond Dallas Page is rumoured to appear on the show making it worth the watch.
