WWE will return to the United Kingdom in 2025.

WWE’s Premium Live Event schedule has taken on a decidedly international feel in recent years and that looks set to continue in 2025.

According to a new report on WrestleVotes Radio via SportsKeeda’s Backstage Pass Patreon, the next edition of Elimination Chamber will take place in the UK. The report notes that Manchester and Birmingham are the two potential host cities leading the charge.

Joey Votes said, “We can confirm that the Elimination Chamber PLE is headed to the United Kingdom in March of 2025 on the road to WrestleMania in Las Vegas. We are hearing two leaders to get that show would be Manchester and Birmingham, so we’ll see what they decide. But we do know that the Elimination Chamber PLE is headed to the United Kingdom.”

Wrestle Votes added that the move makes sense given the event’s success in Australia in 2024.

”And as these negotiations go on, I think they settle on Elimination Chamber as the right place and time for it, given all the elements we see the success it had last year in Australia. So yeah, that’s where we’re going to be headed for the Elimination Chamber United Kingdom in March of 2025 and I think that’s going to open the door again for a few more international PLEs as we have that time between WrestleMania and SummerSlam.”

Mayor Of London Looking To Land WWE WrestleMania

While WWE has held two editions of Clash at the Castle, and Money in the Bank 2023 in the UK, the Mayor of London is thinking even bigger.

In July, WWE confirmed that Triple H and company President Nick Khan met Sadiq Khan at London’s City Hall to discuss their “shared ambition” to hold WrestleMania in London. The Mayor later described the talks as “productive,” adding it was exciting to be working with the sports entertainment giant.

WWE has been holding events in the United Kingdom since 1989. SummerSlam 1992 remains one of the most famous events in company history after the British Bulldog scored an emotional victory over Bret Hart in the main event.
