WWE Elimination Chamber 2026 Odds and Betting Predictions

CM Punk vs. Finn Balor Odds and Prediction

• • CM Punk (-5000)
  • Finn Balor (+1000)

Punk won the vacant World Heavyweight Championship over Jey Uso in November 2025 at Saturday Night’s Main Event. But since then, Balor has been a thorn in his side.

Balor wasn’t allowed to enter the Royal Rumble to earn a shot at Punk, and then attacked the champion during a match against AJ Styles. Punk is supposed to face Roman Reigns for the title at WrestleMania, but he asked for Balor.

That’s why I don’t think Balor has much of a chance in this spot in Chicago, and the 2026 WWE Elimination Chamber odds seem to agree. A Punk-Reigns match at WrestleMania is much bigger than Balor-Reigns, and WrestleMania is the Super Bowl of WWE. I have no doubt the two will put on a great match for the fans.

But I’m confident that Punk will emerge victorious and head to WrestleMania with the belt. The promotion is just using the Balor storyline as a build-up for the bigger clash in the future. That said, Punk’s odds don’t have any value at this price, so I recommend against betting on this one.

Becky Lynch vs. AJ Lee Odds and Prediction

• • AJ Lee (-250)
  • Becky Lynch (+170)

Lee has had Lynch’s number lately. She made Lynch submit in a mixed tag-team match with Punk, while Lynch was paired with her husband, Seth Rollins.

Lee then distracted Lynch enough to make her lose the Intercontinental belt to Maxxine Dupri in November 2025. Lee made Lynch tap out again at Survivor Series. Lynch would regain the belt two months later, but Lee popped up to challenge Lynch for Elimination Chamber. The war of words has continued between the two.

While Lee will be at home in Chicago, the WWE isn’t in the business of thinking about a wrestler’s feelings when coming up with results. Therefore, I will take Becky Lynch at +170 in my 2026 WWE Elimination Chamber betting picks!

The writers will come up with a way of her to keep the title, whether there is outside interference or Lynch uses a weapon. This would be a great lead-up to another clash at WrestleMania. A Lynch win would create even more heat in this feud, so that’s the sensible prediction here.

Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton vs. LA Knight vs. Jey Uso vs. Je’Von Evans vs. Trick Williams Odds and Prediction

• • Cody Rhodes (-2000)
  • Randy Orton (-1000)
  • LA Knight (+425)
  • Jey Uso (+600)
  • Je’Von Evans (+1100)
  • Trick Williams (+1200)

The lineup is now complete for the men’s Elimination Chamber match, but to me, it seems like Cody Rhodes (-2000) should be locked into the win. This is for a chance at a title shot at WrestleMania, and Rhodes is the biggest name here by a mile. Randy Orton (-1000) is also in the mix, making a massive jump from +210 earlier this week, but he’s only won this match once. That was back in 2014 when “The Viper” defended his World Heavyweight Championship.

LA Knight’s (+425) Elimination Chamber odds are far too low in this spot. The WWE isn’t going to put Jey Uso (+600), Je’Von Evans (+1100), and Trick Williams (+1200) in a title shot, especially at WrestleMania. Orton’s Elimination Chamber odds are interesting that they’re so low, but it would either be him or Rhodes to get a title shot.

Given Rhodes’ history with Drew McIntyre, who took the Undisputed WWE Championship from Rhodes in January, it seems certain that they’ll meet up against at WrestleMania.

Rhodes is my WWE Elimination Chamber pick, but I wouldn’t lay a wager at -2000.

Rhea Ripley vs. Tiffany Stratton vs. Alexa Bliss vs. JRaquel Rodriguez vs. Asuka vs. Kiana James Odds and Prediction

• • Rhea Ripley (-160)
  • Tiffany Stratton (+120)
  • Alexa Bliss (+550)
  • Raquel Rodriguez (+700)
  • Asuka (+1600)
  • Kiana James (+2000)

The women’s Elimination Chamber odds are much closer at the top. Even Kiana James (+2000) is an intriguing longshot after beating Charlotte Flair and Nia Jax to earn her spot. Alexa Bliss (+550) won the inaugural women’s Elimination Chamber match in 2018 as the Raw Women’s Champion. Asuka (+1600) won in 2023.

I believe the top three are properly priced, with Ripley (-160) now favored over Stratton (+120) in a change from Wednesday. But I don’t think it’ll be Ripley, who is currently one-half of the Women’s Tag Team Champions with Iyo Sky. I would lean towards Stratton more than Rodriguez. Stratton has a history with WWE Women’s Champion Jade Cargill, and it would be easy to sell that match to fans for WrestleMania.

At plus money, there’s some value here, and even a little more than earlier this week. I’m banking on Tiffany Stratton in my Elimination Chamber picks.
