Elimination Chamber (2025)
The 2025 Elimination Chamber, also promoted as Elimination Chamber: Toronto (known as No Escape: Toronto in Germany), was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming event produced by the American company WWE. It was the 15th Elimination Chamber event and took place on Saturday, March 1, 2025, at Rogers Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, held for wrestlers from the promotion's brand divisions Raw, SmackDown, and one wrestler from NXT. The event is based around the Elimination Chamber match, a type of multi-person elimination-based Steel Cage match in which championships or future opportunities at championships are at stake.
This was the first WWE event held at the venue since WrestleMania X8 in 2002 and first Elimination Chamber event in Toronto. It was the second Elimination Chamber event in Canada, after 2023, and the fourth consecutive Elimination Chamber event held outside of the United States. This was also the first PPV and livestreaming event to not feature a championship defense since Survivor Series in 2021.
The event comprised four matches, including two eponymous matches, with one each for the men and women. The main event was the men's Elimination Chamber match, which was won by John Cena, earning a match for SmackDown's Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 41, while the women's match, which was the opening bout, was won by SmackDown's Bianca Belair, earning a match for Raw's Women's World Championship at WrestleMania. In the other matches, Tiffany Stratton and Trish Stratus defeated Nia Jax and Candice LeRae in a tag team match while Canada native Kevin Owens defeated fellow Canadian Sami Zayn in an unsanctioned match.
The event saw the returns of Randy Orton and Jade Cargill and was notable for Cena's heel turn, as well as being his final Elimination Chamber appearance and last pay-per-view and livestreaming event appearance in Canada as an in-ring performer due to his retirement from professional wrestling at the end of 2025.
Elimination Chamber is a professional wrestling event first produced by the American promotion WWE in 2010. It has been held every year since, except in 2016, generally in February. The concept of the event is that one or two main event matches are contested inside the Elimination Chamber, which is a type of multi-person elimination-based Steel Cage match in which championships or future opportunities at championships are at stake.
Announced on November 8, 2024, the 15th Elimination Chamber event, promoted as Elimination Chamber: Toronto, was scheduled to take place on Saturday, March 1, 2025, at Rogers Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and featured wrestlers from the Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. This marked the second Elimination Chamber event to be held in Canada, after 2023, and the fourth consecutive to be held outside of the United States, after the 2022, 2023, and 2024 events, which were held in Saudi Arabia, Canada (Montreal), and Australia, respectively. This also marked WWE's first event to be held at the Rogers Centre since WrestleMania X8 in 2002 when the stadium was still known as the SkyDome. This was also the second Elimination Chamber event to have a subtitle named after its host city and to take place in an outdoor venue, both after 2024.
The event aired on pay-per-view worldwide and was available to livestream on Peacock in the United States, Netflix in most international markets, and the WWE Network in any remaining countries that had not yet transferred to Netflix due to pre-existing contracts. This marked the first Elimination Chamber to livestream on Netflix following the WWE Network's merger under the service in January 2025 in those areas. Rogers Communications, the owner of Rogers Centre, has been a longstanding partner of WWE and its parent company TKO, having been its broadcast and WWE Network distribution partner in Canada from 2014 to 2024, and continuing as the Canadian broadcast partner of co-owned mixed martial arts promotion Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), WWE's sister company under TKO. The official theme song for the event was "New Way Out" by Poppy.
In 2011 and since 2013, the event has been promoted as "No Escape" in Germany as it was feared that the name "Elimination Chamber" may remind people of the gas chambers used during the Holocaust.
