The decision to bring back Elimination Chamber as a WWE Network exclusive event was made over the weekend. If you recall, the show was originally scrapped from WWE’s PPV lineup because the steel structure is difficult to hang from many renovated arenas across the United States. The American Bank Center in Corpus Christi has not been renovated and does not feature a large ‘scoreboard’ video screen above the ring, so there won’t be a problem suspending the cage over the ring.
