A top WWE star “has a sense” that the crowd at the United Center may be against him at WWE Elimination Chamber 2026.
This Saturday, February 28 will see WWE host its final major premium live event before WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas on April 18-19 – as Elimination Chamber 2026 comes to the United Center in Chicago, IL.
The show will be Cody Rhodes’ first time competing at the United Center and during an appearance on ESPN’s First Take, “The American Nightmare” was asked what he was looking forward to most about wrestling in the building.
Expressing his excitement about hearing the noise of the Chicago fans, Rhodes said he “has a sense” that it may be an “away game” for him when it comes to crowd support:
“I want to see the (Michael) Jordan statue. That and the fact that this show is people upon people. Pandemonium as Gorilla Monsoon would say in our industry.
I’m very much looking forward to the noise. I have a sense that the United Center might be a little bit of an away game for me, which is fine I’m good with that.
“But I’ve always had a good bond with Chicago, I wrestled there with my torn pec, I did other events there that were very important to my career, so I’m looking forward to another building, the building in the United Center.”
