This means SmackDown will be eliminated in the triple threat bout at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, putting enormous pressure on three of WWE's top stars to finish in the final spot.

While the rest of the card is stacked — including Jade Cargill defending the WWE Women's Championship against Jordynne Grace and a Women's Elimination Chamber Qualifier featuring Alexa Bliss, Giulia and Zelina Vega — the night will be headlined by Rhodes vs. Fatu vs.Zayn.
